MANCHESTER UNITED VS CSKA MOSCOW CHAMPIONS LEAGUE BETTING TIPS
Expect plenty of excitement at Old Trafford today as Manchester United vs CSKA Moscow is our pick for the day's footballing action. United are currently listed at around 1.4 with Betfair and that's about right for United in a home fixture. The last match-up between these two was a very interesting game of chess and I expect things to be a bit more straightforward as United will be looking for a relatively simple victory.
CSKA Moscow can be backed at around 10.0 with the draw available at 4.9.
Thanks to young Kai Wayne Rooney his father likely won't be taking the pitch today. However, this more than opens the door for Michael Owen to get a much-deserved Champions League start. The England hopeful is listed at 2.54 to score anytime during the match and I think that's a quality bet if you're looking to double up. I was also impressed by Gabriel Obertan and he looks to be much better value than his £3 million price tag suggests. He is listed at 3.8 to score anytime. Dimitar Berbatov is trading at 2.5 while Nani carries a 5.5 price.
Should Wayne Rooney be named in the starting line-up for United, you can back him to score at around 2.3.
United are odds-on to produce a clean sheet with yes at 1.85 and no at 2.16. In the half-time/full-time market, United are at 2.12 while Draw/Man Utd is at 4.6.
In terms of the correct score betting, I think that 3-0 is my preferred selection at 10.5. I like United to keep a clean sheet as I think the partnership between Wes Brown and Jonny Evans is one of the best in Europe if given some time to develop. 2-1 is a very realistic margin as is 2-0 and you're looking at 10.5 and 6.4 for each of those outcomes.
