Champions League Best Bets: Tuesday, October 11th

In the aftermath of the Champions League anthem as it echoes around three of modern football’s most prominent stadiums, we’ve hung our hat on shots, shots, and a flurry of goals in Glasgow for the Champions League best bets this Tuesday.

PSG vs Benfica Preview

Champions League, Tuesday, October 11th, 20:00 (UK)

Benfica’s hard-fought draw at home to Paris Saint Germain is swiftly forgotten as match day four ensures a back-to-back meeting with the Qatari-backed mega club from France’s capital. The 1-1 scoreline in Lisbon tells a story of evenness between the pair. But, in reality, PSG just about edged it, dominating both possession and attempts at goal, though only recording one more shot on target than the Portuguese.

Of Benfica’s eight shots, striker Gonçalo Ramos helped himself to three, all on target. The frontman’s brace at the weekend will ensure he’s heading to France full of confidence, making the 1.80 price for him to record two shots something to think about.

In the other two Champions League fixtures, Ramos registered three away in Turin and none before being dragged at half-time versus Maccabi Haifa. Alongside his want to find the net in Europe, Ramos’ 4.73 shots per90 in Portugal ranks him first of all players in the top flight in the shot-hungry metric.

PSG vs Benfica Best Bet

If the match plays out as expected and PSG breaks the deadlock in Paris, the onus will be on Benfica and Gonçalo Ramos to work their way back into the tie. The Eagles will search for further breathing distance between them and Juventus in a group set to be competitive up until the last ball is kicked.

Selection: Goncalo Ramos 2+ Shots
Best Odds: 1.80 (Skybet)
Stakes: 10/10

AC Milan vs Chelsea Preview

Champions League, Tuesday, October 11th, 20:00 (UK)

After his three first-half attempts in a successful 90-minute period up against Juventus on the weekend, let’s hope Rafael Leão has kept his shooting boots on for Tuesday night.

In truth, it was a really poor AC Milan performance in London last week. Chelsea were operating at levels above in a match where Leão failed to cause anywhere near his weekly havoc usually on show throughout Italy. However, there was the occasional glimpse of what the Portuguese forward often offers his side, though unfortunately lacking when AC needed him most.

The six shots against The Old Lady at the San Siro was more like it – the venue for Tuesday night’s European thriller. In Italy, similarly to Gonçalo Ramos in the Primeira Liga, Rafael Leão’s 4.95 shots per90 figure has him ranked first for shots per90 in Serie A.

AC Milan vs Chelsea Best Bet

This season’s figures make the Chelsea performance the outlier, though AC Milan will need to step it up several gears for the 3+ shot line to get close. For that reason, it’s a small stake but one worth the punt at the 2.63 price.

Selection: Rafael Leão 2+ Shots
Best Odds: Sky Bet (2.63)
Stakes: 10/10

Celtic vs RB Leipzig Preview

Champions League, Tuesday, October 11th, 20:00 (UK)

The show in Germany last week proposes that we’re in for another fiery instalment in Glasgow with guaranteed action at both ends. Now, there are no guarantees in football betting, but opportunities in front of either goal on Tuesday is one of them.

The 28 shots at goal plus the two RB Leipzig strikes ruled out for offside tells a tale of a fixture full of gilt-edged chances. The hosts, on this occasion, were too strong. Individual brilliance from the likes of Nkunku and Szoboszlai was the difference in the end. That’s not forgetting a howler from Joe Hart in the Celtic net, gifting their opponents a leg up in the second half.

Celtic vs RB Leipzig Best Bet

It could be the same again for RB Leipzig at Celtic Park, though a goals angle feels like a somewhat safer step into a fixture promising so much. On another day, Celtic take one or two more of their chances in Leipzig and make the 3-1 scoreline much closer for comfort. In front of an adoring Glasgow crowd, the likelihood of them starting fast and finding the net ramps up a notch or two.

For the proposed bet builder, a goal in either half alongside BTTS & Over 2.5 goals returns a 2.10 offering from bet365. The selection eased home last week, and it’d take a brave bettor to back against goals once again.

Selection: BTTS & O2.5 Goals + A Goal in Each Half
Best Odds: 2.10 (bet365)
Stakes: 10/10

Odds via bet365 and Skybet as at 12:05, 10th October 2022. Odds may now differ.
