Champions League Goals Expected on the Eve of Qualification
Places in the Champions League last 16 are up for grabs and this should see open attacking football across the continent over the next two evenings.
Arsenal travel to Portugal to take on Braga. All of Arsenals games in the Champions League in 2010 have gone over the 2.5 goals mark, and Braga have also gone over this mark in 5 of their last 8 European fixtures. Arsenal put 6 passed Braga at the Emirates without reply and have the opportunity to seal qualification this evening.
Over 2.5 goals (Braga v Arsenal) @1.72
Across in Rome, Bayern Munich make the trip to take on an in-form Roma side. Roma’s last 2 home games in Europe and Bayerns last 2 away games in Europe have both gone over the 2.5 goals mark. Bayern are not afraid to attack with a +8 goal difference after only 4 games.
Over 2.5 goals (Roma v Bayern)@ 1.79
Mario Gomez has scored in Bayerns last 5 games and last 2 in the Champions League. Gomez is definitely a player in form and should find opportunities against a Roma side expected to go forward and attack.
Mario Gomez to score anytime @3.25
