INTER v SALZBURG – Click here to bet
Inter are currently 2nd in Group D on 4 points from their opening 2 matches. They beat Benfica 1-0 at home last time out and in their opening game they drew 1-1 away to Real Sociedad.
Salzburg are sitting 3rd on the table with 3 points from their opening 2 games. They lost 2-0 at home to Real Sociedad last time out and beat Benfica 2-0 on the road in what was a huge upset on Matchday 1.
Inter beat Torino 3-0 on the road in their domestic league on the weekend and Salzburg were also in action losing 1-0 at home to LASK.
Inter Milan are short priced 3/10 favourites to win the game and I am expecting them to do so with some room to spare.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Inter Milan -1.5 goals at 17/20

MANCHESTER UNITED v FC COPENHAGEN – Click here to bet
Manchester United are currently sitting bottom of Group A having suffered back-to-back defeats at home to Galatasaray and away at Bayern Munich. Goals have flowed in Manchester United matches and there has been a total of 12 goals across the two games.
Manchester United beat Sheffield United 2-1 away in the League on the weekend.
FC Copenhagen had to qualify for the group stages and they currently sit 3rd in Group A on 1 point from their opening 2 games. They lost 2-1 at home to Bayern Munich last time out and drew 2-2 away at Galatasaray in Matchday 1.
Manchester United are just over 7/20 to win the match, but I don’t feel they can be trusted on current form and I am going to back their high-scoring trend in this competition to continue.
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 15/10
SEVILLA v ARSENAL – Click here to bet
Sevilla are currently sitting 3rd in Group B having drawn their opening 2 games. Last time out they played out a 2-2 draw at PSV and in Matchday 1 they drew 1-1 at home to Lens.
Arsenal are just above them on the table in 2nd with 3 points from their opening 2 matches. They beat PSV 4-0 at home to kick off their campaign, but then despite starting 13/20 favourites lost 2-1 at Lens. Sevilla had a creditable 1-1 draw at home to Real Madrid on the weekend and Arsenal also drew 2-2 against Chelsea on the road in the English Premier League.
Arsenal are 8/10 favourites to take the win here and I think they can beat a Sevilla team that has looked a bit off-colour this season.
Suggested Bet: Arsenal win at 8/10
BENFICA v REAL SOCIEDAD – Click here to bet
Benfica are currently bottom of Group D and really need to get a move on if they want to qualify for the knockout stages. They have lost their opening games, 2-0 to Salzburg at home and 1-0 away at Inter. They were in domestic cup action on the weekend where they had a comfortable win and they have also won their last 7 League matches in succession.
Real Sociedad are top of Group D with 4 points from their opening 2 games. They opened with a 1-1 draw at home to Inter and then beat Salzburg 2-0 on the road in their last start. Real Sociedad were in domestic action of the weekend beating Mallorca 1-0 at home and they have won 5 out of their last 6 matches in all competitions.
Benfica are the 12/10 favourites with the draw priced at 5/2, but something doesn’t seem right with this Benfica side and I am going to go for an away win.
Suggested Bet: Real Sociedad win at 95/40
