Arsenal to grab last 8 place
Britain’s Champions League hopes took a blow with Chelsea and Rangers exiting last night to Barcelona and Villarreal respectively but there remains some English interest in the competition.
Liverpool face a fight to hold onto the trophy they won so dramatically against AC Milan last year after going down 1-0 down to Benfica in the first leg in Portugal.
We’re not optimistic about this tie and think the Anfield men, in the unusual position of having to chase the game, could be caught out at the back with a draw probably their best hope.
We will have Bet Direct’s 8/5 for Benfica to win with a goal of a start and by adding that to Arsenal’s 6/4 for a home win against Real Madrid, a decent double can be collected.
The Highbury side, 1-0 up from the first leg in Spain, were devastating against Fulham at the weekend and will face a fragile Madrid side.
It won’t be easy and the Gunners’ home form is relatively poor but we think they can grab a last-eight place.
