Both Teams To Score and Over 2.5 Match Goals

Reason for tip

Goals seem to follow Monaco wherever they go. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals has been a winning bet in seven of their last eight games, as well as each of their five outings at Stade Louis II this term. The same bet has landed in Tottenham’s last three matches and is a standout selection again.

Draw 2-2

Reason for tip

Both of these sides played out a 2-2 thriller in their last Champions League match – Monaco held Manchester City to a draw while Tottenham were frustrated at Bodo/Glimt – so it makes sense to side with the same scoreline, especially with the pair managing just one win in their last eight combined games.

Ansu Fati To Score Anytime

Reason for tip

Both of these teams are sharing the goals around so pinning down an anytime goalscorer is tough. However, given Tottenham’s failure to cope with Emi Buendia and Morgan Rogers on Sunday, it makes sense to side with a Monaco winger. Ansu Fati has scored six goals in as many games and the Spanish winger may steal the show on Wednesday.

Lilywhites looking to bounce back

Thomas Frank’s excellent start at Tottenham saw his new side win four of their opening six matches but that honeymoon period has quickly fizzled out, with their only victories in six coming against Leeds and League One Doncaster.

Spurs’ sticky run continued on Sunday when they were beaten 2-1 at home by Aston Villa and while they will be keen to bounce back, a 2-2 draw at Bodo/Glimt in their last Champions League match suggests Wednesday’s trip to Monaco may prove to be a tough test.

The Monegasques failed to make a winning start under new boss Sebastien Pocognoli, drawing 1-1 with Angers on Saturday, but the Belgian massively overachieved with his former club Union Saint-Gilloise and improvement can be expected sooner rather than later.

Monaco may play host to a thriller

Pocognoli has a talented group of players to work with, as shown by their 2-2 draw with Manchester City at the start of the month, and, at the very least, they will play their part in a thriller at Stade Louis II.

Monaco are unbeaten in 11 home matches, winning eight of those, and they tend to save their potent best for the principality, scoring a mammoth 32 goals in that run.

With Spurs being breached by Wolves, Bodo/Glimt, Leeds and Aston Villa in their last four matches, it is hard to envisage Frank’s men keeping a clean sheet in Monaco, but there is a good chance they also contribute to a goalfest.

Inconsistent pair could be tough to split

Both teams to score has been a winning bet in five of Tottenham’s last six matches, so they clearly have the attackers to do damage even if their defence is leaving a lot to be desired, and combining that selection with over 2.5 goals could prove profitable.

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals has been a winning bet in seven of Monaco’s last eight games, as well as each of their five home matches this season, and makes great appeal again.

With goals likely to flow, those seeking an even bigger price should consider backing 2-2, the scoreline in each of the pair’s last Champions League matches, in the correct-score market.
