Top Match Tips: The smart money on this week's Champions League action

LEICESTER VS CLUB BRUGES - Leicester Win to Nil @2.75

Leicester’s domestic form this season has left little to be desired but they have flourished in Europe so far. They are one of just two teams yet to concede a goal in the Champions League this season and are in command of Group G, but will want a win over Club Bruges to guarantee themselves top spot and ensure the optimum draw in the knockout stages.

Their opposition, Bruge, have struggled on the road in all competitions failing to score in 4 of their last 5 matches. They have lost each of their last 6 matches in the Champions League (including playoffs) - scoring just two goals in that time. Bet365 have priced Leicester to win to nil at 2.75.

SPORTING VS REAL MADRID - Madrid to Win & Both Teams to Score @2.87

A surprise draw away to Legia Warszawa in the last round has left Real Madrid slightly adrift in Group F. They currently sit two points behind leaders Borussia Dortmund. There is little doubt about their future progression, but they will want to reassert their authority in this campaign. They’re emphatic 3-0 win over rivals Atlético on the weekend will have been a solid boost to their confidence.

As formidable as Real Madrid’s attack is, their defence has been questionable. This weekend marked the first time they’d kept consecutive clean sheets since the start of May. Only 8 teams have shipped more goals than Real Madrid in the Champions League this season. Sporting may not have had results go their way, but they’ve only failed to score once in their last 10 Champions League games. Real Madrid have more than enough in their locker to win tonight but will likely concede. You can bet on Real Madrid to win and both teams to score with Bet365 at 2.87.

MONACO vs TOTTENHAM - Falcao to Score Anytime @2.75

Over the last two seasons in the Premier League, Falcao looked like a mere shell of the player that he once was. He was indecisive in front of goal and seemed to have lost the pace that he once boasted. But a summer off and a return to Ligue 1 seems to have re-invigorated the Colombian. He has scored 5 goals in his last 3 apps for Monaco.

Tottenham’s strongest defender, Toby Alderweireld, has not yet returned from injury. Mauricio Pochettino will be forced to play Eric Dier alongside Jan Vertonghen once again. A pairing that allowed West Ham to put two past them just 3 days ago. He didn’t score in the reverse fixture, but Falcao should find the back of the net in Monaco tonight. You can bet on Falcao to score anytime with Bet365 at 2.75.

ARSENAL vs PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN - PSG to Score First @2.25

Arsenal and PSG have both guaranteed themselves a place in the next round with 10 points a piece. Arsenal top Group A on goal differential with only Barcelona (14) scoring more than the Gunners (12) in Champions League this season. But have often needed the impetus of an opposition goal to get them going. They have conceded first in 4 of their last 6 Champions league matches, including a goal within the first minute in the reverse fixture.

PSG have opened the scoring in 7 of their last 8 matches in all competitions. Without a certain Swedish striker in the mix, Edinson Cavani has flourished up front for the Parisians. He is Ligue 1's top goalscorer with 11 goals in 10 starts and has netted 4 goals in 4 Champions League apps this term. Bet on PSG to open the scoring against Arsenal at 2.25 with Bet365.
