Football – Europe – Champions League Betting Tips
Match day 5 is almost upon us as Tuesday night brings us further action starting with Group H and a clash between group leaders, Juventus and third placed Valencia as the betting tips continue.
Rather predictably, Juventus lead the group and have so far accumulated nine points and hold a two point cushion over second placed Manchester United, and a four point gap over tonight’s opponents, Valencia.
However, the Italian giants fell to an unexpected 2-1 defeat to Manchester United at their Allianz Stadium on match day 4 so The Old Lady will no doubt be keen to redeem themselves with all three points here. Juventus had previously strung together a three-match winning sequence against Valencia (2-0 away), a 3-0 home win over Young Boys and a 1-0 win away at Manchester United.
Strikers Ronaldo (9 goals) and Mandzukic (6 goals) are amongst the goals again and I’m expecting a backlash from the hosts on Tuesday night.
Onto Valencia and as mentioned they sit in third spot in Group H after making a mixed start to their campaign with a 2-0 loss at home to Juventus, but they have responded with points against Manchester United and Young Boys in 0-0 and 1-1 draws along with a resounding 3-1 home win over Young Boys last time out.
With Manchester United expected to beat Young Boys at Old Trafford on Tuesday night, Valencia know they must pick up all three points in Torino here, but this looks a very tall order for the Spanish outfit who have picked up just one win from their last seven away matches in the Champions League.
That success came in a 1-0 win at Lyon, but defeats at Monaco, Gent and Zenit in recent times – the latter two results being to nil, suggests this could be a long night for the visitors.
The betting tips suggest a home win and to cover the asian line too.
