Producer Ryan Cahill is on hand to summarise the best bets from this week’s featured games from our Champions League podcast.
After what could only be described as a cagey week of Champions League action last week, we will be hoping for Europe’s Premier Club competition to spark into life this week.
The guys focused in on all 4 games this week with a rematch of last seasons Champions League Final between Liverpool and Real Madrid the stand-out tie.
Enjoy that and the rest of the action this week, and if having a bet please do remember to do so responsibly.

Adrian Clarke’s Best Bet
When Napoli play, goals tend to follow.
Arguably the most impressive team througout Europe this season, Adrian feels they may have too much in attack for a soft Frankfurt defence.
On the flip side, Frankfurt themselves are more than capable of causing the Serie A Leaders plenty of problems.
With that in mind, Adrian thinks we see goals here.
Recommended Bet: Frankfurt vs Napoli – Over 2.5 goals (1.84)
Mark O’Haire’s Best Bet
As Mark pointed out, you rarely see a Leipzig or Man City game set at this total.
Beliving Leipzig have more than enough about them to find the net, and, as we are all too aware if City are at their best they are an outstanding attacking side.
Mark reckons this is too advantageous a betting proposition to turn down.
Recommended Bet: Leipzig vs Man City – Over 2.5 goals (1.76)

Miguel Delaney’s Best Bet
Miguel expects a tactical approach from Ancelloti on Tuesday Night.
Expect Madrid to keep the tie in balance for the return leg at home, and opt for a more conservative style of play at Anfield.
That in Miguel’s opinion makes it a big price on both teams not to find the net.
