Football Predictions Tuesday

FC Barcelona v Brest

FC Barcelona will return to UEFA Champions League action on Tuesday evening as they welcome French side Brest to the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. – Check out our UEFA Champions League odds.

Barcelona returned from the international break with a tricky trip to Celta Vigo, things were looking good for Hansi Flick’s side after Lewandowski put them 2-0 up on the hour mark. However, Marc Casado picked up a second yellow card which left Barca playing the last ten minutes with just ten players, even then you’d have fancied them to see it out but two goals in two minutes from Celta Vigo meant it was two points dropped for Barcelona. After the game, Hansi Flick said his players only had themselves to blame and they were lucky to leave Vigo with one point, they are now winless in their last two but have a good chance to bounce back here on home soil. 

UEFA Champions League debutants Brest have taken to this competition like a duck to water, the Pirates remain unbeaten in their first four games, with victories in three of them moving them into fourth place in this league phase. Like their opponents, Eric Roy’s side head to Spain winless in their last two games, both of which have come away from home. After their start to this campaign, Brest will be very happy with how things are going, whilst automatic qualification might still be a big ask, they are six points clear from twenty-fifth place with four games left to play.

Despite their good start, I think Barcelona will get the victory in this one and quite convincingly, they’ve scored a league-high fifteen goals in their first four games, I’m expecting more on Tuesday night. Here you can find all our latest UEFA Champions League football tips.

FC Barcelona will be looking to go all the way under Hansi Flick and claim their seventh UEFA Champions League.

Bayern Munich v Paris Saint-Germain

Tuesday night provides one of the standout ties from the UEFA Champions League this week, as Bayern Munich take on Paris Saint-Germain at the Allianz Arena.

Following their 4-1 defeat to Barcelona in this competition back in October, Vincent Kompany’s side have won all of their six games since and in style too, without conceding a single goal. However, having already lost two of their four games in the UCL, the Bavarians have some work to do if they are to finish in those eight automatic places, FC Bayern are currently seventeenth but there’s still hope given they are just three points off the top eight. The last time Bayern Munich lost on home soil in the UEFA Champions League came back in April 2021, against no other than PSG.

This is the one that the Parisians want to win but Luis Enrique’s side are really struggling in these early stages. Just one win in their first four games see’s PSG outside of those twenty-four qualification places with just four games left to play, it’s a real worry given they’ve still got to face Manchester City and travel to both Salzburg and Stuttgart, an early exit out of the group stage could be on the cards for the first time since the 2004/2005 campaign. I don’t think things will get much better here for PSG, they’ve lost five of their last eight games on the road in the UCL.

Bayern Munich are favourites on Tuesday night and I’ve got to agree, they’ve won five of their last six competitive games against PSG.

Vincent Kompany will want to ensure his side book their place in the next stage of this competition by finishing in the top eight.

Manchester City v Feyenoord

Manchester City will welcome Dutch side Feyenoord to the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday evening in the UEFA Champions League.

Manchester City had suffered four defeats in a row before the international break, the club announced that Pep Guardiola had signed a two-year extension to his contract in hope of deflecting a bit of the negativity surrounding the club. However, that didn’t help their cause on Saturday evening when Tottenham Hotspur rocked up to East Manchester and stick four past the current Premier League champions without reply. What seemed to be a little dip in form now looks to be quite concerning for Pep and co, his worst ever run as a manager but unbeaten in their last thirty-three UCL home games, this could be a good chance for City to stop the rot and edge closer to Barcelona’s UCL home record.  

Feyenoord head to Manchester twenty-first in the UEFA Champions League, that would be enough to put the former European champions into the next stage but there’s still four games left to play and work to do. Brian Priske’s side suffered a shock defeat in their UCL outing against Salzburg but have put together back-to-back victories in the Eredivisie since then, De club aan de Maas tend to like life on the road, unbeaten in their ten away games across all competitions so far including victories in both of their UCL away games.

Despite Feyenoord’s success on the road and Manchester City’s recent form, I still feel that Pep Guardiola’s side will stop the rot in this one and edge closer to that UCL home record.

Will Manchester City be celebrating their second UEFA Champions League title in May?

Sporting v Arsenal

Arsenal will travel to Lisbon on Tuesday evening for this UEFA Champions League clash against Sporting.

Sporting have started life without Ruben Amorim in fine form, Joao Pereira is the man in charge now and his first game ended in a 6-0 victory against third-tier Amarante. Of course, this is the real test for his side but they’ve started really well in the UEFA Champions League, the Lions sit second in the UCL league phase after their first four games picking up ten points from a possible twelve, including that victory against Manchester City.

After three games without a victory, Arsenal wasted no time in getting back to winning ways after the international break, a 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Saturday was a much-needed win for the Gunners as they look to get themselves back into the title challenge. Mikel Arteta’s side head to Lisbon in twelfth with seven points, although they’ve only scored three goals so far and conceded just one, they sit at the bottom of the table in terms of average goals per games.

However, I feel like we will see goals in this one, whilst three of the last four meetings between these two sides have ended in a draw after ninety minutes, I’m going to back a score-draw here.

Sporting will be hoping to keep their fine form going without Ruben Amorim, can the Lions secure a place in the top eight?

Football Predictions Wednesday

Aston Villa v Juventus

Villa Park will be rocking on Wednesday night as Aston Villa take on Juventus in the UEFA Champions League. – Check out our latest UEFA Champions League odds.

Aston Villa started this UEFA Champions League campaign in fine form, winning all of their first three games with wins against Young Boys, Bayern Munich and Bologna. However, that victory against the Italian outfit is the last time Unai Emery’s side won a game, they’ve played six games across all competitions in that period and have faced defeat in four of them. The Villans resumed after the international break looking to kick on but found themselves taking just a point on home soil against Crystal Palace on Saturday despite being the favourites, there’s a bit of concern creeping in from the Villa faithful. 

Juventus kept their unbeaten record alive in Serie A on Saturday night with a goalless draw on the road at Milan. However, it’s not all as it seems given the Old Lady have played out a league high seven stalemates so far in the Italian top-flight, Thiago Motta’s side have had more draws than wins which has left Juve back in sixth and four points off Napoli at the top. In the UEFA Champions League, Juve sit eleventh at the time of writing on seven points, a victory here would see them leapfrog Villa and potentially into the top eight automatic places with three games left to play but it’s a tough task.

I think we could be in for another draw in this fixture for Juventus, Villa aren’t pulling up any trees at the moment and both sides could cancel each other out. Here you can find all our UEFA Champions League predictions.

At the time of writing, Aston Villa occupy the final automatic spot with four games left to play, finishing in the top eight would be a huge confidence boost for Unai Emery’s side.

Celtic v Club Brugge

We’re in for another famous atmosphere on Wednesday evening as Celtic and Club Brugge meet at Celtic Park for this intriguing UEFA Champions League clash.

Given the sides that Celtic have come up against in their first four games of the Champions League, I’m sure they would have taken you up on the offer of them sitting in fifteenth place at the halfway stage of this league phase. They reacted well to that 7-1 thumping at Dortmund, with a goalless draw in Bergamo against Atalanta before their 3-1 beating of RB Leipzig at this very venue. We’re getting to the point now where one game can change everything, with just three points separating the Bhoys from twenty-fifth place, these next couple of games are so important. Brendan Rodgers side are full of confidence after extending their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership to three points and eleven points to their rivals Rangers, the Hoops have won all of their last six games across all competitions and maintain a 100% on home soil in this seasons UCL.

Like Celtic, Club Brugge also find themselves within the top twenty-four (22nd) prior to their trip to Glasgow, Nicky Hayden’s side are unbeaten in their last six games which includes their 1-0 victory against Aston Villa in their last outing in this competition despite going in as the slight underdogs. Just one point is the difference between these two sides as the middle of the league starts to tighten up, with Sporting, Juventus and Manchester City still to come, FCB will know this game will likely be their best chance of a result but again, it’s a tough ask.

These two sides have never met before, Club Brugge have won just two of their last eight away UCL games whilst Celtic have won three of their last four on home soil, goals are expected under the lights at Celtic Park.

Dinamo Zagreb v Borussia Dortmund

The Stadion Maksimir is the venue for this one as Dinamo Zagreb welcome 1997 Champions League winners Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday evening.

It has to be said that it looked like the writing was on the wall for Dinamo Zagreb after their 9-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in their opener. However, with two wins and a draw from the following three games after in the UEFA Champions League, Nenad Bjelica’s side find themselves within the top twenty-four (16th) with just four games left to play. The Blues now have a chance to make it three consecutive victories in this competition for the first time in their history.

Borussia Dortmund will be hoping their trip to Croatia is a lot more successful than recent outings, since that 3-0 victory over Club Brugge back in September, the Prussians haven’t won in their last six away games across all competitions, losing five of those within 90 minutes. However, Nuri Sahin’s side have won three of their last four games including a comfortable 4-0 victory against Freiburg on Saturday afternoon, a win here would keep Dortmund in the top eight of this league phase.

This is the first meeting between the two clubs but Dortmund have a brilliant record in this competition, only Real Madrid (twice) and Atletico Madrid have beaten Borussia Dortmund in their last sixteen UCL matches.

Dinamo Zagreb will be hoping they can continue to defy the odds and secure a place in the next round of the UEFA Champions League.

Liverpool v Real Madrid

Two European giants go head-to-head on Wednesday evening in the UEFA Champions League as Liverpool take on Real Madrid at Anfield.

Liverpool are flying under Arne Slot and their incredible form continued on Sunday with a 3-2 victory on the road to Southampton. The Reds have now extended their lead at the top of the Premier League to eight points and despite it still being early days, they are really putting down a marker and with the visit of Manchester City next weekend, it’s a massive week in their season. The Reds have managed to transfer their domestic form into the UEFA Champions League, top of the pile and remain the only side to have a 100% record so far. However, Slot will be well aware of their record over the years against Real Madrid, having lost seven of their last eight meetings with the Spanish outfit. 

Real Madrid are back in the La Liga title race, Carlo Ancelotti’s side have won their last two league games following that embarrassing 4-0 defeat to Barcelona back in October. Following a couple of slip-ups from Barca since that, Los Blancos are now just four points behind their title rivals with a game in hand. However, the focus now switches to the UCL where Real Madrid are used to having unbelievable success but things haven’t started too great, many had them down as favourites to win the league phase but they’ve won just two of their first four games and sit eighteenth. Avoiding defeat here would be a good result for Real Madrid given the current circumstances.

Two sides with brilliant attacking players on display should result in goals at Anfield, Real Madrid will be without Vinicius Jnr for this one and will have to rely on Kylian Mbappe to find his shooting boots.

Neither side have played out a stalemate in the UEFA Champions League so far, I think we could see one here in an entertaining encounter.
