Champions League Predictions > Feb 13th - 21st


Recommended Posts

No team is inspiring confidence with their appearances, so there is no clear favorite to qualify, I expect a patience game, shut down the places and strike in counter-attacks, Mourinho will line up his team, not to score goals repetitive to qualify, the few goals have a lot of luck
FC SEVILLA vs MANCHESTER UNITED @@ +2.50 Under, odds 1.81

Neither in this match has a team lead, the home team Shakhtar comes from a stoppage and still has no pace, the Roma, on the other hand, is not at the best and will not be able to enforce easily, the Roma are very good defense, I do not see opening the match, the two teams will be cautious, because each goal at this stage counts
SHAKHTAR DONETSK vs AS ROMA @@ +2.50 Under, odds 1.86

The odds on these have gone down but essentially, Bayern should wrap this up and he is one card away from suspension.

If the game is done and dusted, he is back for the QFs.

 

Hi KilkoCy, I like this, this is very important information, but germans are not this type of peoples. This is habitually for italian and spainish players,

Sevilla vs Man. United

21.02.2018 on 19:45

 

Prediction:  Man United To Win: Price - 31/20 (2.55)

One of today matchs in Champions League is betwen Sevilla and Man United. The visitors will be hoping to make an impact on European competition having failed to mount title chalenge against Man City. Jose Mourinho "s side ended  8 matches unbeaten run by a loss against Tottenham earlier in January.Mourinho  is specialist on two matches so I think that United will go to Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan for win!

Sevilla vs Manchester United

Two of the great European clubs of recent times come face-to-face for the first time in competitive competition tonight when La Liga side Sevilla host Premier League club Manchester United at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium in this first leg of their last 16 Champions League tie.

Vincenzo Montella's side navigated their way through a potentially tricky group in the shape of Liverpool, Spartak Moscow, and Maribor. However, their campaign suffered a devastating interruption when former coach Eduardo Berizzo was diagnosed with prostate cancer in November 2017 before the club ruthlessly sacked him for poor results one month later. Montella has since stepped in and results have started to pick up lately but the level of opposition means the jury is still out on the Italian coach.

Jose Mourinho has been suffering a harsh amount of criticism despite his United side sitting in 2nd place in the Premier League table with only the incredible Manchester City placed above them. The Red Devils made light work of a group that contained Basel, CSKA Moscow, and Benfica winning 5 of their 6 group games.

My feeling here is that the tie could be won by the better manager. Montella started his managerial career in 2011 and has already managed six different clubs. His win ratio at his previous clubs has only exceeded 50% once and that was at Fiorentina between 2012 and 2015. His current win ratio at Sevilla is 62% after 13 games but the majority of those games were against far lower placed opposition.

I would not be surprised to see United take at least a draw here and I'd even have confidence in them snatching a win. Mourinho was born for games like these and he knows exactly how to grind out games on the European stage at places like this. I'm going to punt for a low-scoring game with United looking good for at least a draw.

Short previews and missing players, provided by footalyct.com!

Shakhtar v AS Roma; 20:45

Shakhtar will miss Srna and Mayeshev, who are out for for a while. Bernard had some injury problems but should be back in the first lineup here.

AS Roma is coming in Kharkiv without midfielder Gonalons and defenders Karsdorp, Silva, and Pellegrini. Some doubts are about important wide midfielder Florenzi, but he will most likely be in the squad for the match.

Short preview: We've seen some high, trashing results in this round - City beating Basel, Liverpool Porto, Bayern Besiktas, but I think that in this match, bookies are forcing Italian side little bit too much. The only thing really bothering me here is the fact, that Ukranian championship came back last weekend, but I am sure that preparations of Shakhtar were tempted for the UCL match, so I expect players to be on a high competitive level anyway. After playing the last match on 6th of December, they started with training sessions pretty early in January, played 6 matches before the first match of their league, which they've won 5-0 against Chornomorets. Roma, on the other hand, had a very poor January, losing against Atalanta, played draws away against Inter and Sampdoria, and on 28/1 even lost against Sampdoria at home. February looks much better with three wins on their account, but first two matches were against Benevento and Verona, two of bottom three clubs in Serie A. Definitely Shakhtar will be a different opponent. At "home" they have an advantage also in temperatures as there is -5 in Kharkiv currently and it will be around -7 degrees during the match. My advice is to take Shakhtar -0,25 at odds around 2,20 and no it is not coming out of the fact, that this team won against Manchester City in the group stage, but mainly from how they played against Manchester City in England. True, they lost 2-0, but the second goal was scored in last seconds of the match and till then, everything was very much open. They've created many chances, and I think that till the match, no one caused as many problems to Citizens as Ukrainians did. Probably everyone knows how City plays, but I believe that there is only a few of those who actually watched matches of Shakhtar. They had 49% of possession on the Etihad stadium, which didn't happen there this season either. They have a very good squad, they managed to keep Fred there till the end of the season and I know that it could be tricky to pick them as being out of competition for two months is a pretty big handicap, but I still believe that they have more chances than odds are showing.
