Football – Europe – Champions League Betting Tips
Wednesday night brings us further action from the round of 16 in the Champions League and what a treat we have in store as free-scoring Real Madrid take on French side, Paris Saint-Germain at the Bernebeu with both teams vying for first leg supremacy.
Real Madrid have been scoring goals for fun in recent weeks as they’ve racked up wins in La Liga over Deportivo La Coruna 7-1, Valencia 4-1 and Real Sociedad 5-2, and although they lost 2-1 at home to Leganes in the Copa del Rey, they bounced back with a 2-2 draw away at Levante in the league.
However, Real Madrid sit in a disappointing fourth place in La Liga after suffering some indifferent results this season, their main hope now of bringing some silverware back to Madrid appears to be holding onto their Champions League crown. Ronaldo, Bale and Benzema are the main threats up front for the hosts.
PSG are once again enjoying total domination of the French Ligue 1 as they’ve returned to the top of the domestic league, holding a 12 point lead over second placed Monaco who are perhaps a shadow of their former selves following the departure of some key players after their title win last season.
The visitors are in supreme form at the moment, having put together a six-match winning streak in all competitions, and indeed, have won 20 of their last 21 matches overall, so confidence will be high amongst the PSG camp that they can produce a result in Madrid on Wednesday night.
It’s also interesting to note that each of PSG’s last 13 Champions League ties have produced at least 3 goals or more in each game, and this could be no different here.
