Champions league betting last 16 preview and betting tips

Paris Saint Germain v Real Madrid

Real Madrid have strong domestic form this season. And perhaps they can have the edge over a PSG team who have flattered to deceive in Europe this season. Los Merengues are well clear at the top of Spanish La Liga, with Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzema scoring goals for fun. While Lionel Messi is at Paris Saint-Germain, the French side struggled during the group stage and dropped points against Club Brugge and Leipzig.

BEST BET: Real Madrid to qualify.

Sporting Lisbon v Manchester City

Manchester City are the outright favourites to claim their first ever European Cup. The north-west side should prove too strong for a Sporting side who finished second in their section. Kevin de Bruyne is now back in the squad. And the only big issue for the Citizens is a lack of striker to deliver the goals when it really matters.

BEST BET: Manchester City to qualify.

FC Red Bull Salzburg v Bayern Munich

Bayern look like serious contenders and they claimed six wins in six group games. They are likely to win home and away against a Salzburg side who claimed just a point on the road in their section. Julian Nagelsmann’s side are effective with their high line against opponents such as this one and we’ll take then to go through with ease.

Inter Milan v Liverpool

Liverpool would have preferred Salzburg although they should still be able to edge out Inter over two legs. It’s an advantage to be clashing at Anfield in the second leg. And they have already been to the San Siro this season and beaten a Milan side. An away goal or two in the first leg should put them in the box seat despite Inter going well in Italy.

Chelsea v Lille

Chelsea are big favourites to go through and Thomas Tuchel’s side should prove too strong over two games. They will play the first leg clash at Stamford Bridge before a second leg in France. Although Lille sit mid-table domestically and they’re simply nowhere near as strong as last season. Why not learn more about online betting with Betfred, one of the WhatAcca.com approved Bookmakers.

Villarreal v Juventus

We think Villarreal can cause a mini-upset here. The Yellow Submarine could easily have won their Champions League group. Unai Emery has previously won the Europa League on four occasions, with Juventus looking vulnerable. They were hammered 4-0 at Stamford Bridge, with Max Allegri struggling to get the same tune out of the Turin side.

Atlético Madrid v Manchester United

We’re interested to see United are favourites to go through and there’s little to recommend them right now. The Red Devils blustered their way through the Champions League group. While Atletico Madrid could be primed to take advantage. They caused Liverpool lots of problems at the Wanda Metropolitano and could have their ducks in a row by this tie.

Benfica v Ajax

Ajax were outstanding during the group stage of the Champions League. With Erik ten Hag’s side likely to overcome a Benfica side who finished second behind Bayern. The Portuguese side conceded nine goals against the German side, while Ajax were highly prolific against their group opponents.

Those are the verdicts for the eight Champions League clashes set to take place from February 2022 onwards. An accumulator featuring all of the above pays 25/1 and it could be an interesting bet, with Villarreal, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid the riskiest selections.
