Wednesday football tips
Bet of the Day – Over 3.5 goals in Barcelona v Borussia Dortmund @ 21/20
Barcelona are strongly fancied to take a first-leg advantage when they host Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League quarter-finals, but Barca look a little too short on the match betting market and backing over 3.5 goals looks the play.
There have been 48 goals in Barca’s 10 Champions League matches this season, which includes a 3-2 victory when the pair clashed at Signal Iduna Park in the league phase of the competition.
Dortmund have been way off the pace domestically this term, but Die Borussen have won 3-0 at Club Brugge and Sporting this term, scored twice at Real Madrid and also hammered Celtic 7-1.
Those numbers suggest a high-scoring contest at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys and backing over 3.5 goals looks the best bet of Wednesday night.
Longshot of the Day – Aston Villa to beat PSG @ 13/2
PSG were elevated to joint favourties in the Champions League outright market following their last-16 success over Liverpool, but the Parisians look to have been flattered by that effort.
There is no doubt that Luis Enrique’s men impressed when downing the Reds, but Arne Slot’s side have since lost the EFL Cup final to Newcastle, struggled to a 1-0 success over Everton and been beaten 3-2 at Fulham.
Liverpool’s recent performances haven’t done wonders for the form and this is the same PSG outfit which was beaten by Arsenal, Atletico and Bayern Munich in the league phase.
Aston Villa have found their peak at the business end of the season and it’s seven wins on the bounce for the Villans.
Unai Emery’s men have conceded only two goals on that impressive run and Villa can call on a rejuvenated and in-form Marcus Rashford in attack. At 13/2, Villa are worth a punt in Paris.
Special of the Day – QPR to fail to score v Oxford @ 9/5
QPR have taken only two points from their last seven Championship matches and are in danger of falling into a relegation battle.
Defeat at Oxford, who are also looking nervously over their shoulders at the drop zone, would make matters worse for the R’s and the home side will be buoyant after downing Sheffield United 1-0 at the weekend.
It’s six away defeats on the bounce for QPR, who have scored only four goals on their travels of strife and Marti Cifuentes’ side may struggle to break down the U’s. It’s 9/5 that the Hoops fail to score at the Kassam Stadium and that looks like the best special bet on Wednesday night.
