[DarrenTse]

Bayern Munchen VS Benfica

Kick Off: 11/02/2021 16:00

 

Bayern Munchen

In the last three games of the Champions League group, Bayern made the opponents kept zero goals, and the defense ability was outstanding. Lewandowski has scored 17 goals in various competitions this season, and the goal momentum is unstoppable. The team have scored 25 goals in nearly six home games, which showed the fierce offense. They only needs to get 1 point to qualify in advance in this game. After their 5-0 defeat to Monchengladbach in the German Cup, they soon returned to their state. The last round of League away game against Berlin United and finally got a 5-2 victory.

Benfica

At present, Benfica have accumulated 4 points in the Champions League group stage and there is still hope of qualifying. Benfica has recently entered the state of four-front operation, and their physical reserves have exceeded the limit. They have won only one game in the past six games. Despite physical problems, goals have been scored in the last three games, and the firepower is relatively guaranteed. Yaremchuk and Nunez have handed over the data of 8 goals and 8 assists in total, and both of them are in good condition.

Prediction

Bayern remained unbeaten in 11 previous Champions League meetings with Benfica. Bayern returned to the Allianz stadium in this game. Considering that Bayern's home game is very strong and Benfica's recent physical problems, Bayern's unstoppable offense force should promote them to win here without any problem.

 

Pick: Bayern Munchen

Total: Under 3.5 goals

Malmo FF vs Chelsea

Kick Off: 11/02/2021 13:45

 

Malmo FF

Malmo FF are rock-bottom in the group, without either a goal or a point. They knocked out Riga, HJK Helsinki, Rangers and then Ludogorets merely to reach the group stage. In their opening game of Champions League, they were 3-0 beaten by Juventus. Then Malmo were confronted with 4-0 loss to Zenit St. Petersburg. However, Malmo have got a excellent performance in Allsvenskan campaigns.They come into this game on the back of a 3-2 win over Sirius in the Allsvenskan.

Chelsea

The defending Champions League champions are having an excellent season both in league and cup games. Chelsea sit second in the group behind Juventus. Having begun with a 1-0 win against Zenit St Petersburg, Chelsea then lost by the scoreline to Juventus. As for their domestic games, Chelsea have now posted 13 points from a possible 15 away from home in the Premier League. They beat Newcastle United 3-0 on last time out.

Prediction

Malmo lost their last 4 games in Champions League conceding 13 goals and failed to score in three. Facing with the last season of the Champions League champions, they barely have a chance to win.

 Juventus VS Zenit St. Petersburg

Kick Off: 11/02/2021 16:00

 

Juventus

Juventus won all the three group H games without concede. At present, they are at the top of the group with nine points and three points ahead of Chelsea. The old lady is ready to enter the knockout stage. Although they have been in trouble in domestic in the past year, the Bianconeri have achieved a record of 13 victories in the past 14 Champions League group matches before returning on Tuesday. They have lost to Verona and Sassuolo in the past two league games, whose state fluctuates slightly.

Zenit St. Petersburg

The Russian champions have easily won nearly two league games, beating Dinamo Moscow 4-1 and Spartak 7-1 respectively, giving Zenit a five point lead in the league table, they are seeking to win the domestic championship for the fourth time in a row. Since losing to Juventus in the last round of the Champions League group stage, they have lost eight of the past 10 European games - only one win. They have achieved 1W-2L in the first three rounds of group matches with 3 points, currently ranking the third place.

Prediction

Juventus have formed the habit of winning the Champions League by a narrow margin this season. The old lady is expected to take another three points against Zenit to continue their winning streak in Champions League.

 

Pick: Juventus

Total: Under 3.5 goals

[StefanBB]

Sevilla vs Lille

The hosts keep the pace in the La Liga title race after beating Osasuna last weekend 2:0. They are one point behind Real Sociedad, but Sevilla has one game in hand. Julen Lopetegui’s team lost just one match in the domestic championship, and they want to remain in the title battle as there are many contenders in the La Liga this season. However, the home side still searches for the first win in the Champions League. They booked three draws and sit in 2^nd place, being one point ahead of their upcoming rival. After a goalless draw in France, a potential victory would bring Sevilla very close to the knockout stage.

The away side cannot be satisfied with its recent form, as they failed to win on the previous four occasions in all competitions. Although they were close to stunning PSG again, Lille was unable to keep the halftime advantage and lost 2:1. The defending Ligue 1 champions are 12^th in the domestic competition, and they’ll unlikely secure the Champions League spot next season. However, they still have a chance to progress to the playoffs, as Lille is just one point behind Sevilla. Nevertheless, David  Jonathan and the lads should improve their performances and win this match to climb to the top two.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

Sevilla has been in a much better momentum, and they are favorites in this clash. We believe the hosts will meet the expectations and celebrate their first victory in the Champions League this season.

Goals Market Prediction

These two sides have been involved in low-scoring head-to-head clashes in the last 15 years. Since the visitors haven’t been too impressive in the front, we don’t expect to see more than two goals in total in this encounter.

Atalanta vs Manchester United

Atalanta had a 2:0 halftime lead in Manchester two weeks ago, but it wasn’t enough for at least a point. Although Gian Piero Gasperini’s side could score a couple of goals more, they eventually failed to a 3:2 defeat. La Dea is currently third in Group F, being two points behind its upcoming rival. Halfway through the group stage, all four teams have a chance to finish in the top two and enter the knockout stage. Atalanta will also fight for the Champions League ticket in Serie A, as they are joint-fourth with Roma. The hosts go to this match after an exciting 2:2 draw against Lazio. They haven’t lost on the previous three occasions, and Duvan Zapata and the lads will go for a victory here.

After suffering a humiliating 5:0 defeat against Liverpool at Old Trafford, Manchester United bounced back with a 3:0 win over Tottenham. That victory boosted their confidence, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hopes his lads can snatch all three points in Bergamo. The Red Devils are on the top of Group F, but they still haven’t secured the playoffs. Cristiano Ronaldo and the lads are fifth in the Premier League but far from the title race. However, they got back to the top-four race, and the visitors search for another Champions League qualification. Manchester United needs consistency to remain competitive in the Champions League.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

Atalanta has played well lately, and they are in a better momentum than their opponents. Manchester United booked an important victory last weekend, but they are far from being confident. Therefore, we don’t think La Dea will lose this game.

Goals Market Prediction

The home side has been involved in many high-scoring matches lately, but they failed to keep the clean sheet on the previous six occasions. United’s last four games went over a 2.5 margin, and we expect to see at least three goals in this encounter.

Atalanta AH +0.25 @ 1.95 

Over 2.5 FT @ 1.50 

Correct score 2:1 @ 11.00

[DarrenTse]

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid

Kick Off: 11/03/2021 16:00

 

Liverpool

Liverpool are sitting pretty at the top of Group B in the Champions League. On match day 3, they 2-3 beat Atletico Madrid on penalty. Liverpool were held to a 2-2 draw by Brighton over the weekend. That result marked their 24th consecutive game without defeat in all competitions. Liverpool have score at least two goals in their last 12 games across all tournaments, and they scored 11 goals in three Champions League wins this season.

Atletico Madrid

Ahead of matchday four, Atletico Madrid have collected four points and stand on the second-placed. From a dampening defeat to Liverpool, an uninspiring goalless stalemate with Porto and a last-gasp win over AC Milan, Atletico have not exactly dazzled and delighted in the Champions League this term. They have both scored and conceded four goals in these games. Atletico Madrid are in fourth place in the La Liga standings. They eased past Real Betis by a 3-0 margin in their previous game.

 

Prediction

Griezmann's absence will hurt Atletico Madrid immensely on the attacking front and make them harder to fright against Liverpool. Considering the wealth of quality attacking options, expect Liverpool will hold a slight upper hand going into this game. 

 

1X2 Pick: 1

Final Results: 2-1

[DarrenTse]

Manchester City vs Club Brugge

Kick Off: 11/03/2021 16:00

 

Manchester City

Manchester City remain in the top two of Champions League Group A behind PSG. Manchester City eased to a 5-1 win when the sides met in Belgium on matchday four. They are in seven-game winning run at home in the Champions League, which they have never failed to score at least twice in a game. However, Man City have lost three games in a row across all competitions. Manchester City will be hoping to bounce back here following a 0-2 Premier League defeat last time out to Crystal Palace

Club Brugge

Club Brugge have strung together a five-game unbeaten run away from home in all competitions. They left a terrific impression in the opening two rounds of the Champions League, claiming four points in the fixtures against PSG and RB Leipzig. However, they failed to stay competitive against highly-motivated Manchester City in the previous round. They have also conceded in each of their last four on the road. Club Brugge will go into the game following on from a 1-2 First Division A win in the defeat of Sint-Truidense VV in their previous match.

Prediction

Club Brugge are perfectly capable of punching above their weight and can trouble their opponents this week. However, Manchester City have already taken down them once. As the better team, Manchester City should be able to win this game.

Malmo vs Chelsea

The Champions League group stage action enters its second half of games this week. It's Swedish Allsvenkan side Malmo versus Premier League leaders Chelsea in a 5:45pm GMT kick-off on Tuesday night at the Eleda Stadion in Malmo in Group H. These two sides played each other in the reverse fixture just a couple of weeks ago and it was the English team who prevailed as 4-0 winners. Will we see a repeat score-line here?

Malmo come into this game bottom of the group without a single point earned or a single goal scored. It's been tough for head coach Jon Dahl Tomasson with his side undoubtedly punching well above their weight in this competition. The Swedish side have conceded 11 goals already in their 3 group games and they will need to win this game to stand any real chance of qualifying for the last 16 but, if we're being brutally honest, I think that ship has sailed. It is four league games unbeaten for Malmo on the domestic front which has lifted them to the outright lead at the top of the Swedish top flight but that counts for nothing here.

Chelsea stand proudly on top of the Premier League table and their lead at the summit was extended to 3 points after their comfortable 3-0 win away to struggling Newcastle and Liverpool being held against Brighton. The Blues are looking well set to reach the last 16 in this group but know they need to win this to consolidate their position in the top two of the group. Thomas Tuchel's side have kept 9 clean sheets so far this season in all competitions and they will be keen to add another shut out to that record here. The London club will be without a number of key players for this game though including Romelu Lukaku, Timo Werner, Mason Mount, and Mateo Kovacic.

Even though Chelsea are without some big hitters for this game there is still a huge gulf in quality between these two sides. I'm expecting the ferocious home crowd of Malmo to inspire their players to turn in a better performance than they did in the away leg but Chelsea should still have enough to come away with a win. The big question is whether they'll keep the clean sheet or not. I think given Chelsea's back-line is largely unchanged we should see another solid defensive display that provides the back bone for another win.

Atalanta vs Manchester United

One of the more interesting games taking place in the Champions League on Tuesday night is the 8pm GMT kick-off between Serie A side Atalanta and Premier League club Manchester United at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo for this Group E clash. It was a five-goal thriller when these sides met just a couple of weeks ago in the reverse game with Cristiano Ronaldo's late winner being the difference maker. Will the home team get revenge here or will the away side make it a double?

Atalanta have been a breath of fresh air in European football over recent years but their involvement in this competition could be hanging by a thread if they suffer defeat in this game. Gian Piero Gasperini's men are in 3rd place on 4 points but their 3-2 loss to Manchester United in their most recent group game saw them drop ground on their opponents in the race for qualification for the last 16. La Dea are unbeaten in their 3 games since that defeat to United. The team will have to do without the likes of Robin Gosens, Rafael Toloi, Matteo Pessina, and Berat Djimsiti. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 10 of the last 12 matches involving Atalanta across all competitions.

Manchester United were in complete disarray this time last week after the 5-0 hiding the team suffered at home to rivals Liverpool. Rumours even circulated that the Red Devils board were preparing to relieve Ole Gunnar Solskjaer of his duties. However, one week on and a convincing 3-0 win away to Tottenham later and it's all sunshine and roses again for the United faithful. The team come into this game top of the group and victory here would put them on the brink of qualifying for the last 16. The defence will need to tighten up though having only kept 3 clean sheets across all competitions so far this season. Paul Pogba is likely to be selected to give Solskjaer some fresh legs in midfield with the Frenchman serving a suspension in the Premier League.

This game could be a ding dong battle if the previous encounter is anything to go by. It was interesting to see the changes Solskjaer made to United's formation for the Tottenham game and it was undoubtedly needed. I hate to sound like Graeme Souness but I still think Pogba is a problem player for United and if he comes back in then will it impact the squad cohesion and morale? Atalanta are a dangerous side when at their best but they are missing a few key individuals. I can see United getting at least a draw if they can take the performance from the weekend into this game.

Villareal(SPA) vs. Young Boys(SWI)

Villarreal
In the 1st round of the Champions League, Villarreal drew with the  Atalanta 0-0. In the second match of the main European Cup, the Yellow Submarine lost away to Manchester United 1-2.
In the third match of the tournament, the Levantines defeated their current rival on the road - 4-1. According to the results of three rounds, they are in second place in the group, ahead of Atalanta in goal difference.
In the Spanish championship, the Levantines occupy only 13th position. Their lag behind the leader Real Sociedad is 13 points with the match in reserve.

Young Boys
The Young Boys unexpectedly took the lead in their UEFA Champions League group after beating Manchester United 2-1. In the second round of the European Cup, the club lost to Atalanta 0-1 on the road.
In the next match, the Swiss lost at home to Villarreal 1-4. After three rounds, he is fourth in the group, one point behind Atalanta and Villarreal.
For Young Boys, the Champions League started with qualifying. The team alternately passed Slovan, CFR and Ferencvaros Bratislava, without losing even once.
In the Swiss league standings, the Young Boys, which have lost the last two matches, are in third place, five points behind the Basel leader with a match in reserve.

My prediction and bet - Villarreal will win and  total goals score over 2.5 in 2.05.

Juventus(ITA) vs. Zenit(RUS)

Juventus
The Italians lead in Group H with 9 points. In case of a win or a draw, the Turin team guarantees itself a place in the Champions League playoffs.
Juventus started the Champions League group stage with an away defeat of Malmo 3-0, and then beat Chelsea at home with a minimum score, and then Zenit.
In the last Serie A matches, the Bianconeri escaped an away defeat against Inter 1-1, but lost 1-2 to Sassuolo at home and Verona away.
After 11 rounds of Serie A, Allegri's charges with 15 points are in 10th place. The goal difference is 15-15. Keene, De Sciglio and Jorge will not play, Ramsey, Chiesa and Rugani are in doubt.

Zenit
Zenit with 3 points scored takes 3rd place in Group H. The victory in Turin leaves them a chance to fight for 1st place in the quartet.
In the opening match of the Champions League, Sergei Semak's charges lost to Chelsea in London 0-1, and in the second round they defeated Malmo 4-0 at home. The match with Juve was going to a draw, but the St. Petersburg team conceded in the last minutes - 0-1.
After that, within the RPL, Zenit defeated Spartak at home with a score of 7-1, and then Dynamo won in St. Petersburg - 4-1.
After 13 rounds of RPL Zenit with 29 points tops the table. The goal difference is 34-16, Dziuba scored 7 goals. Kuzyaev, Ozdoev and Douglas will not play, Krugovoy and Malcolm are in doubt.

My prediction is a risky bet Both Team To Score for 1.90

[harry_rag]

Usual interest in RB Salzburg corners in their game away to Wolfsburg (the game they're not calling the Burg derby). Bought their corners squared for 1.5 points at 32 with SPIN and had 12 points on both teams getting >5 corners at 6/1 365. Lads and Uni among others offering it at 11/2 (via bet builder).

How can Chelsea have only scored one goal?  lol

Borussia Dortmund vs Ajax

Dortmund keeps the pace in the title race, as they celebrated the fourth straight victory in the Bundesliga. They beat Koln 2:0 last weekend, and for the first time this season, Borussia didn’t concede in two games in a row. Marco Rose managed to stabilize Dortmund’s form, and the hosts are just one point behind Bayern Munich. They sit in 2^nd place in the Champions League group stage as well, being three points ahead of Sporting. However, Borussia suffered a tough 4:0 defeat in Amsterdam two weeks ago, and they need to improve at the home ground. Moreover, Dortmund’s injury list is quite long, and Erling Haaland will also be unavailable for this clash.

Ajax has enjoyed an excellent campaign so far, as they booked all three victories in the Champions League. Erik ten Hag’s side has been dominant in the Eredivisie as well, as they are two points ahead of PSV. The away side conceded just two goals in the domestic championship and only one in the Champions League. On the other hand, Dusan Tadic and the lads have produced almost four goals per game on average in the continental campaign. Nevertheless, Ajax goes to this game after a hiccup against Heracles, who held them to a goalless draw. They want to get back on the winning track and secure the top spot in the group.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

It will be an exciting clash in which both sides have a chance to pick up all three points. However, Dortmund has many injury problems, and their best player will be out for this match. Therefore, we believe Ajax will snatch at least a draw in this clash.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams have been very productive this season, and they don’t give up on the attacking approach. Although Ajax has been almost unbeatable in the back, we expect to see an efficient clash, and neither side should keep the clean sheet.

Ajax AH +0.25 @ 1.75

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid

Liverpool returned to Anfield after four straight wins on the road, but they failed to continue their streak. Brighton held the Reds to a 2:2 draw, despite trailing 2:0 after the half-hour mark. Jurgen Klopp’s side is now three points behind Chelsea, but the hosts are the only undefeated team in the Premier League. Mo Salah and the lads want to bounce back with a win that could potentially secure them a place in the Champions League knockout stage. They are five points ahead of their upcoming rivals, and Liverpool celebrated 3:2 in Madrid two weeks ago. The hosts have a perfect record on the continental stage and want to keep up where they left off.

Atletico Madrid managed to break its three-game winless streak with a comfortable 3:0 victory over Betis. That one keeps them fourth in La Liga and three points behind Real Sociedad, who played one game more. Diego Simeone’s team had defensive issues in the past few weeks, as they conceded at least twice in each of the previous three games. On the other hand, Los Colchoneros improved their finishing, as they netted 13 times on the last six occasions. They are leveled with Porto in second place, and the visitors want to advance to the playoffs. Another tough challenge is ahead of Atletico Madrid, and an excellent display could give them a chance to remain undefeated.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

It is one of the most exciting matches on Wednesday, and both teams will search for valuable points. Nevertheless, we believe the hosts are closer to the victory, and they should celebrate once again against Los Colchoneros.

Goals Market Prediction

Atletico Madrid has been very productive lately, and we expect them to continue their excellent form in the final third. Therefore, the crowd should enjoy many goals, and we don’t think either team will keep its net intact.

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid

The Champions League action continues into Wednesday night and it's Liverpool versus Atletico Madrid in an 8pm GMT kick-off at Anfield in Group B. The two favourites to qualify from this group are going toe-to-toe once again after producing a memorable spectacle in Madrid two weeks ago when the English side prevailed as 3-2 winners thanks to a 78th minute winner from Mohamed Salah.

Liverpool will be looking to seal their place in the last 16 with a win here having picked up 9 points from their 3 group games so far. The Reds have been free-scoring in their games so far having bagged 11 goals in their matches thus far. Salah has led the way with 5 goals but the Liverpool back-line has come under scrutiny for leaking in 5 goals during those games. Liverpool have scored 2 goals or more in their last 12 competitive games and with Salah not only in his current form but also having scored 13 goals in his last home Champions League matches you have to feel a high-scoring game with Salah on the score sheet is a decent bet.

Atletico Madrid know that their progress to the next round won't be determined here but a win would certainly do their chances no harm at all. Diego Simeone's side are 2nd in the group on 4 points but only ahead of 3rd place Porto due to a superior goal difference. Atleti pushed Liverpool close in the previous encounter and had it not been for Antoine Griezmann's red card we might have seen a different outcome. The reigning Spanish La Liga champions have scored at least twice in their last 6 competitive games and have only been defeated once in their last 6 visits to England.

It's been an entertaining start to this group and it'll be interesting to see what approach both sides have to this game. Really, it's a case of nothing to lose. Neither of these sides will be in trouble if they don't win here but victory could put them into the last 16 or on the brink at least. I can see Liverpool having enough to prevail though. They are irresistible at the moment and not many teams can match them.

Manchester City vs Club Brugge

The second Champions League preview I'm covering for the Wednesday night games is the 8pm GMT kick-off between Group A rivals Manchester City and Club Brugge at the Etihad Stadium. The home team could all but seal their place in the last 16 with a win here but they welcome a travelling side who can put a huge spanner in the works if they inflict a shock defeat on their hosts.

Manchester City appear to be faltering slightly. Pep Guardiola's side suffered a fourth defeat of the season on the weekend in a surprising 2-0 loss at home to Crystal Palace. Granted, the Citizens were reduced to 10 men for a large portion of the game after the sending off of Aymeric Laporte but the result stands. City are in 2nd place in this group and just 2 points ahead of 3rd placed Club Brugge heading into this game. A victory would put them on the verge of a place in the next round but a loss or even a draw would throw all that into doubt. The home team have won 20 of their 25 home games in the Champions League under Guardiola. It'll be interesting to see what side Pep picks with his team facing a crunch derby game against Manchester United at 12:30pm GMT on Saturday afternoon.

Club Brugge are doing themselves proud in the Champions League this season. Head coach Philippe Clement has seen his side pick up 1 win, 1 draw, and 1 loss from their 3 group games so far. That defeat was a heavy 5-1 loss at home against their opponents for this game. The statistics don't give their fans much reason to be optimistic either with the Blue-Black losing 11 of their 13 away games in England in European competitions. However, they remain a side that do not go quietly into the night. The Belgian First Division A club have seen both teams score in all 3 group games but have also scored in 9 of their 11 Champions League matches.

I do think we'll see a weakened Manchester City team but given the depth of quality in their squad that's hardly saying something. Club Brugge have been heroic so far but the last game against City showed how they can be picked apart. I can see a similar outcome here even if City rest some star players. The home team should walk this comfortably by a 2-3 goal margin.

Here's the bookings points expectations for tonight's games (listed by home team).

AC Milan: 50

R Madrid: 42

Dortmund: 40

Liverpool: 44

Man City: 40

RB Leipzig: 48.5

Sheriff Tiraspol: 49

S Lisbon: 51.5

4 games hit my 45+ criteria for a potential bet on 4-6 cards but only the Sheriff/Inter game meets the minimum price criteria so I'll be backing that at 6/5. Might have a look at the ref stats and prices for any interesting bets.

[BillyDuke1989]

Red Bull Leipzig(GER) vs. Paris Saint Germain(FRA)

Leipzig
Leipzig, after three rounds, takes the last place in their group. The German club has yet to score a single point.
So far, the main disappointment can be called the home defeat of Leipzig against Club Brugge, the main rival in the fight for the third line and a ticket to the Europa League.
Although at some points Leipzig resembled a team that is ready to compete even with such a monster as Paris Saint-Germain. Two weeks ago, Jesse Marsh's team even took the lead on the Parisians' pitch for some time, but still could not stand it.
After the match in Paris, Leipzig scored four points in two Bundesliga games and advanced to the next round of the German Cup.
Leipzig have never played a draw at home this season.

PSG
Paris Saint-Germain, meanwhile, leads the group. Now the Parisians have seven points - one more than Manchester City.
The home match against Manchester City was indicative, in which PSG won 2-0, including thanks to a goal from Lionel Messi.
By the way, Messi may miss the away game against Leipzig. The Argentine was slightly injured in a recent match against Lille 2-1.
PSG have won only one victory in their previous four away games. Mauricio Pochettino's team in this segment hardly put the squeeze on Metz, and also lost to Rennes and drew with Club Brugge and Marseille.

Prediction and bet

Almost one hundred percent sure that we will have the same crazy and goal-rich game as it was two weeks ago. The only thing that inspires concern for such a forecast is the absence of Messi. But even without him, I am sure that PSG and Leipzig will have someone to hit each other's gates. I bet on total over 2.5 + both team to score in this match, and for those of you who like risk, I suggest playing the bet "Both teams will score over 1.5 goals".

[BillyDuke1989]

Milan(ITA) vs. Porto(POR)

Milan
Milan are in the last place in the group B standings, having not scored a single point in three rounds.
The Rossoneri alternately lost to Liverpool 2-3, Atlético 1-2 and Porto 0-1.
In the Italian Serie A, Stefano Pioli's charges are doing much better. Their current winning streak has seven meetings. After the defeat to Porto, they beat Bologna 4-2, Torino 1-0 and Roma 2-1, equaling the leading Napoli in points.
Mike Magnan, Junior Messias, Alessandro Pizzari, Ante Rebic, Alessandro Florenzi and Samuel Castillejo are recovering from Milan's injuries.

Porto
Porto are in third place in the group B standings with 4 points.
Sergio Conceição's side lost peace with Atlético 0-0, suffered a major defeat at Liverpool 1-5 and beat Milan 1-0 thanks to an accurate shot from Luis Diaz in the middle of the second half.
In the Portuguese championship, the Dragons regularly win, due to which they lead the standings.
Last weekend, they defeated Boavista at home 4-1 and did not allow Sporting and Benfica to get ahead.
Porto's injured include Wendell and Tomas Esteves.

Bet and prediction
For the Rossoneri, this is the last chance to keep hope of reaching the Champions League playoffs. At the same time, in their field, they only need a victory over the Dragons, which have already come too far away.
In Portugal, Milan played on an equal footing with Porto, but they were rather passive in attack, delivering only one shot on target and four in total.
At San Siro we expect more from Stefano Pioli's charges, especially after the success in the game against Roma. My prediction and rate is Milan's victory.
