Benfica v Club Brugge
Benfica go into this tie in a commanding position having won the first leg 2-0 on the road. Brugge managed to hold Benfica till half-time, but goals in the 51st and 80th minutes saw the visitors collect the 3 points.
Benfica have won 10 of their last 12 matches in all competitions including their last 4 and on the weekend beat Famalicão 2-0 in the League.
Club Brugge have been in indifferent form and they have only won 2 of their last 10 matches with two losses and 6 draws. They were well beaten in their Domestic League on the weekend going down 3-0 away to Oostende.

Benfica 4/10
Draw 4/1
Club Brugge 13/2
Benfica are playing some excellent football at the moment and with their opponents forced to come at them I am expecting Benfica to create plenty of chances in front of their home crowd. At the end of the day I don’t see Brugge living with Benfica and I am going to be backing the hosts to win by more than a goal.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Benfica -1.5 at 11/10
Chelsea v Dortmund
Chelsea are under pressure going in to their home leg having lost 1-0 on the road in the first leg. The match was goalless at half-time, but Dortmund grabbed the winner through Karim Adeyemi in the 63rd minutes.
Chelsea got a much needed victory in the English Premier league on the weekend beating Leeds 1-0 at home and that broke a 6 match run without a victory including 3 successive defeats which started with the Dortmund loss in mid-February.
Chelsea’s last 8 matches in all competitions have delivered profits for punters backing under 2.5 goals.
Dortmund are in exceptional form and have now won 12 successive matches across all competitions. They warmed up for this fixture with a 2-1 home victory over RB Leipzig in the League on the weekend.

Chelsea 10/11
Draw 27/10
Dortmund 3/1
Chelsea are really battling at the moment and I certainly won’t be taking them to win the game at current prices and in fact think the value lies with Dortmund to win the game at 3/1. That is going to be my main bet and for the more conservative punter you can back Dortmund to win or draw the game at 19/20, that is in the handicap market where you can get +0.5 goals Dortmund.
Suggested Bet: Dortmund win at 3/1
