Tuesday Champions League Betting Preview Part 2

Juventus are the significant favourites as they take on Chelsea at home today. The Italians trade at a 4/5 price tag and they’ve been putting in some very solid shifts over the past few fixtures. Chelsea have been playing as competently as ever but their 10/3 listing shows that the bookmakers don’t have a dramatic amount of confidence in their ability to get the result here today.

Chelsea are a side that can get a result in a match like this but they need to get a good performance from every department if they plan to truly demonstrate their ability to defend their title this year.
Valencia vs Bayern Munich is perhaps the biggest toss-up of the day. You’ll find the Spanish side trading at 13/5 while Bayern Munich can be backed at a 23/20 price tag. The draw at 11/5 might be a tad bit more interesting to some because this one is going to be tougher for the German side than many might think. Despite the higher price, Valencia are a very solid side when playing at home and you’ll want to keep that in mind when formulating your wager for this one.
This fixture might be one to bet in-running, after you’ve had 20 minutes or so to size up the match and where the holes might be in the defense.
Cluj takes on Braga in a battle for the second place spot in Group H. If Galatasaray doesn’t get the result against Manchester United, then virtually any of the three could potentially win this group with one game remaining after this one. The Transylvanian side are the hosts but they only come it at a 21/10 price tag while Braga are available at an 11/8 listing.
The parlay option for today looks to be the draw in the Chelsea vs Juventus, Valencia vs Bayern Munich and United vs Galatasaray matches. A treble rewards at 40/1.
