Manchester United v Atletico Madrid
8pm, BT Sport 2
Atletico Madrid have been the big spoilers for the last couple of years.
But I don’t think they’re at their best, and it’s not a bad time for Manchester United to play them.
That Anthony Elanga equaliser late on in the away leg which earned them a draw that I think puts them in the box seat.
This will a tough one for United, but I fancy them to get over the line.
It won’t be easy, and I fancy Both Teams To Score, but I think Man Utd will win narrowly 2-1.
And who else for a Goalscorer bet? It’s got to be that man Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ajax v Benfica
8pm, BT Sport 3
Ajax are in fine form. I know the Eredivisie isn’t the strongest, but they’ve scored 77 goals this year, and only conceded 11.
They drew 2-2 away in Lisbon, and I fancy Ajax on home turf. I don’t think they’ll concede either.
I fancy a 2-0 win for Ajax.
For a goalscorer, Sebastien Haller is having a wonderful time following his move from West Ham, and I fancy him to score anytime.
