The Champions League returns to our screens this week for matchday seven of the League Phase, and a clash in Copenhagen is the opening act for our six-day accumulator of best bets.
I have singled out my favourite bet from each day of the week, which can be backed as singles or combined into a tasty x/1 accumulator below.
Back our 72/1 Long Haul Accumulator here!
Tuesday – Copenhagen win or draw double chance (vs Napoli) at 10/11
Goal difference alone separates these two sides heading into the final two weeks of League Phase action, and there could be little to separate Copenhagen and Napoli at the Parken Stadium on Tuesday.
I Partenopei are yet to claim a point on their travels in the Champions League and have won just one of their last four ties, while the Danes have only lost one of their three home games in this competition, including a high-scoring draw with Bayer Leverkusen in September.
Wednesday – Bayern Munich over 3.5 team goals (vs Union Saint-Gilloise) at 11/10
Bayern Munich put yet another defence to the sword when they demolished RB Leipzig 5-1 on Saturday, and they will have Union Saint-Gilloise quaking in their boots as they visit the Allianz Arena.
Die Bayern have scored four or more goals in four of their last five games and have scored 22 goals across their last five at home. Union Saint-Gilloise have lost four of their six Champions League ties, including 4-0 thrashings at the hands of Newcastle and Inter Milan.
Thursday – Lyon to win (vs Young Boys) at 8/11
Lyon are top of the standings in the Europa League league phase, and they can consolidate top spot when they visit Switzerland on Thursday.
Les Gones have won five of their six Europa League fixtures, and they head into matchday seven of the competition off the back of a fantastic run of form over the winter period. They have wonseven of their last eight, and hosts Young Boys have lost their last three assignments, conceding 12 goals in the process.
Friday – Derby to win (vs West Brom) at 13/8
After a round of midweek fixtures, Derby and West Brom will lock horns at Pride Park on Friday evening, and it is the Rams backed to take all three points to close the gap on the Championship play-off positions.
John Eustace’s side have taken five points from their last five home games and, while they are far from the best home side in the second tier, their visitors have lost their last ten league away games and four of their last five trips to this ground.
Saturday – Burnley win or draw double chance (vs Tottenham) at 4/5
Despite a dreadful run of form which has seen them win just one of their last eight games, Tottenham are odds-on favourites for their trip to Turf Moor, and they look worth opposing after last weekend’s shambles.
Thomas Frank’s side were beaten on their own patch by the dire West Ham and, despite their lowly position in the table, Burnley have taken points from Liverpool and Manchester City in their last two games. It remains to be seen whether Thomas Frank will still be in charge on Saturday but, if he is, the Clarets could put the final nail in his coffin.
Sunday – Over 3.5 goals (Telstar vs AZ Alkmaar) at 11/10
AZ Alkmaar’s 18 Eredivisie games have produced a massive 64 goals, and there could be a fair few added to that tally when they visit the BUKO Stadion on Sunday.
Telstar have scored 17 and conceded 20 in their last nine home games, with seven of those going over 3.5 goals, while four or more goals have been scored in five of AZ’s last six domestic fixtures.
