Champions League
FreeIt’s back! At long last, arguably the greatest club competition on earth returns for our viewing and betting pleasure. The form of the clubs, injuries and pressure makes all of these fixtures suddenly very interesting as opposed to the mild interest that was generated back when the draw was completed in December. You find yourself asking questions like “Is Arsenal’s meager league form going to continue into their match at home to an in-form AS Roma?” or “Is Jonny Evans going to be fit for Manchester United as they face a tough trip to the San Siro to play Italian giants Internazionale? And if he’s not, who on earth will partner Rio Ferdinand with Nemanja Vidic suspended and Gary Neville & Wes Brown injured?” or “With Olympique Lyonnais finally bursting into terrific form and Barcelona having not won for at least 3 games, is there a shock on the cards? Will Barcelona’s injury list get the better of them at Stade Gerland?” or “Can Atletico Madrid shake off their weak league form and overcome an in-form Porto in Madrid?”. Fortunately for you guys, you’ve got me to make such decisions for you, so no pressure, eh?!
