Bayern Munich play host to Lille Metropole and you can back last year's finalists at a slim 1/6 price to get the result in front of their home fans. Lille are a lengthy 14/1 to get the win while the draw can be backed at 6/1.

Look out for Thomas Muller to score and Bayern to get the win – you can parlay this at a 6/4 price tag. The real easy money appears to be Mario Gomez to score anytime at 4/7.

Lille will definitely be counting on Nolan Roux to get the job done in front of goal and if he can notch one early enough then they might be able to stick this one out if they can hold themselves together at the back. He's a 4/1 shot to score anytime and you can get a 25/1 price on him to score and Lille to win.

Benfica play host to Spartak Moscow and they're short-priced 4/7 favourites to get the win in front of their home fans. Spartak always have an advantage when playing at home, in that they tend to draw other sides out of their element.

They're 5/1 for the away win here but look much better value to get the 14/5 draw by sticking to their guns and digging in early. If they produce another high-quality outing, they could easily pull off a 0-0 result.
