Champions League Betting Tips: Goals likely in Madrid & other best bets for Wednesday

The first round of Champions League matches continues on Wednesday night with eight games taking place.

Just 21 goals were scored on Tuesday night, with eight of those coming in Austria where Red Bull Salzburg beat Genk 6-2, and our tipster has picked out three bets for Wednesday’s fixtures.

Atletico Madrid vs Juventus Betting Tips

Atletico Madrid and Juventus met in the last 16 of last season’s Champions League, with the Spanish side winning 2-0 at home before a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick gave the Serie A champions a 3-2 aggregate victory.

Although these two sides usually produce few goals, the 11/10 (2.10) quote from bet365 on both teams to score could pay dividends considering Atleti have conceded four goals across their last two La Liga games.

Juventus, too, have not been as strong at the back in the Champions League as they have been in Serie A, keeping just one clean sheet in their last five continental clashes – scoring six times in those games.

PSG vs Real Madrid Betting Tips

Real Madrid’s run of European dominance ended last season when they lost in the last 16 to Ajax but will be out to add to their 13 Champions League titles with Zinedine Zidane at the helm.

The Frenchman lifted the trophy in each of his three seasons with the Spanish side and the enhanced 47/20 (3.35) price on Real to win their opening group game at PSG could offer good value on Wednesday night.

Zidane led his side to victory in Paris just last year and with Neymar suspended along with Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani injured, Real will identify this match as a chance to take the onus in Group A.

Dinamo Zagreb vs Atalanta Betting Tips

Atalanta are making their Champions League debut on Wednesday and could come away with victory at Dinamo Zagreb.

The Serie A side have won six of their last eight away games in all competitions and bet365 offer them at 11/10 (2.10) to extend that run in Croatia.

Dinamo are certainly no pushovers, having won six of their last seven home games, but their Champions League record leaves a lot to be desired with the Croatian side losing their last 11 group stage matches.

Odds correct at the time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.
