A Day to Play

Let the extravagant ceremonies begin!

Its a Champions League matchday yet again, and if you aren't as excited as we are, what the hell is wrong with you? Today and tomorrow there will be some crucial matchups for each group, and we plan on being on the winning end of them.

Group A
Every team in this group has something to play for today. If Inter top Tottenham in North London today, they lock up a second round berth. Also, if that were to happen, the winner of Werder Bremen v FC Twente would leapfrog Tottenham in the group standings, so look for some serious action in Group A today. As for betting, we expect a stingy scoreline between Tottenham v Inter, possibly even a draw. The only thing that concerns us for betting under 2.5 goals is that Tottenham have only kept two clean sheets this season from 16 games, so you confidently anticipate an Inter goal. As for Werder Bremen v FC Twente, we expect goals. Werder Bremen are, well, Werder Bremen. Only 3 of Werder's 17 matches in all competitions have been under 2.5 goals this season. That is a staggering number of goals and we expect the trend to continue as they play FC Twente who have shown the ability to score in European competition. Our sportsbook has the total at 3 goals, we'll comfortably take the over.

Group B
Lyon have the opportunity to seal up the top of the group today in their match against Benfica. Lyon have displayed defensive supremacy in this group stage, allowing only a single goal so far. Expect a low scoreline as Lyon were only able to score twice against Benfica in their recent 2-0 home win. Take under 2.5 goals at wherever you can find the best price. The other fixture in this group, Hapoel Tel Aviv v FC Schalke will produce some goals. Hapoel Tel Aviv love to have a go attacking at home, and impressively have gotten on the scoresheet in their past two Champions League meetings, including their away game at Schalke where the final was 3-1. With nothing to lose, expect them to just play their game. Both teams are likely to score, so take over 2.5 goals.

Group C
Bursaspor haven't scored yet in their Champions League campaign, all while allowing 6 goals in three games. We expect them to continue their scoring drought today as they host Manchester United. Our sportsbook has Manchester United at one goal favorites right now, and we say take that bet. Valencia host Rangers, and Rangers are making this a tricky bet. Everyone knows Rangers reputation of playing extremely defensive football in European competition, and we fully expect that tonight as they approach a high-scoring side in Valencia. Rangers have a one-point lead on Valencia right now in their group, so we expect Rangers to shamelessly dig in to secure a point from a draw. Valencia are currently 1.5 goal favorites and the match total is set at 2.5 goals. We say, take Rangers at 1.5 goal underdogs, and take under 2.5 goals.

Group D
Barcelona will be paying Kobenhavn a visit today, and the books have made it a tricky tricky bet to make. Barcelona are in amazing form after drumming Sevilla 5-0 over the weekend. Messi and David Villa both looked incredible, which is the main reason why Barcelona have opened at 1.5 goal favorites against Kovenhavn on the road. Barcelona were only able to muster a 2-0 win against them at the Nou Camp due to a Messi brace. This season we have seen home teams display the ability to dig in defensively against Barcelona and keep it tight for as long as possible. As good a team as Barcelona are, they have had trouble keeping clean sheets this season, so we like Kobenhavn's chances at 1.5 goal underdogs today. As for Rubin Kazan v Panathinaikos? We'll take under 2.5 goals.

Today's Picks

• Werder Bremen v FC Twente OVER 3 goals

• Hapoel Tel Aviv v FC Schalke OVER 2.5 goals
• Manchester United -1
• Rangers +1.5
