Pays 11.92/1
Brugge can take the points in Kazakhstan
Kairat have taken only one point from their six Champions League matches and the Kazakhstan outfit are the weakest team in the competition.
Club Brugge have collected just three points more than Kairat, but the Blue and Blacks are a far stronger team than that tally suggests and that should show at the Central Stadium.
Ivan Leko’s men have faced Atalanta, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Sporting and Arsenal in their last five European fixtures and it doesn’t come much tougher than that.
Club Brugge were good enough to draw 3-3 with Barcelona and beat Rangers in qualifying for the competition, suggesting they should have too much for their hosts.
Bet 1: Club Brugge to beat Kairat @ 11/20
Don’t expect Dortmund to ease Frank pressure
Thomas Frank’s time in charge of Tottenham may be running short, and a Champions League tie against Borussia Dortmund is hardly ideal.
Dortmund have hit 16 goals in their last seven matches and there have been a total of 32 strikes in their six Champions League matches this term.
All of those matches have gone through the 3.5 goal line and Tuesday night’s tie should have no issue going over 2.5.
Spurs have seen their last three matches finish with at least three goals and look vulnerable against this entertaining Dortmund side.
Bet 2: Borussia Dortmund to beat Tottenham @ 11/8
Goals likely at the Bernabeu
Real Madrid made the move to sack manager Xabi Alonso and the future looks uncertain for Los Blancos.
However, there have been 34 goals in Real’s last nine games and seven of those matches have gone over 2.5.
We know that Alvaro Arbeloa’s men will not take a backward step at the Bernabeu and the goals should flow.
Monaco have featured in Champions League matches which have ended 2-2 (twice) and 4-1 this term and the Ligue 1 side could add to an entertaining contest.
Bet 3: Over 2.5 goals in Real Madrid v Monaco @ 7/20
Marcelino’s men to add to Ajax issues
Ajax have seen the net bulge 31 times in their last seven matches and it hasn’t been one-way traffic for the Amsterdam side.
They beat Qarabag 4-2 in their most recent Champions League outing, but they have suffered a heavy 5-1 defeat against Chelsea and 4-0 loss at Marseille and are most certainly a work in progress.
Villarreal are yet to win in Europe this season, but the Yellow Submarine are going well domestically.
Marcelino’s men are good enough to punish a leaky Ajax defence in a high-scoring game.
Bet 4: Villarreal to win and both teams to score v Ajax @ 8/5
