It’s quarter-final time in the UEFA Women’s Champions League and holders Arsenal have a mouthwatering London derby with Chelsea tonight.
The Blues have been England’s dominant force, winning six Super League titles in a row, but they’ve yet to conquer Europe while the Gunners have been queens of the continent twice.
Both teams are having disappointing domestic campaigns this season, lagging behind the Manchester clubs, so that makes this European clash even more important.
Arsenal Women vs Chelsea Women top betting tips
Chelsea sit two points ahead of Arsenal in the Super League table but that’s a little misleading as they’ve played two games more.
The Gunners have also edged the head-to-head so far this season, following up a 1-1 draw at home with an excellent 2-0 victory on the road.
That’s why most firms price an Arsenal win at 11/10 with the Blues as big as 11/5 with BetMGM for a triumph on enemy turf.
First legs are often cagey so it’s probably best backing a tight game and the half-time draw is a decent 13/10 with Ladbrokes.
I also like the 11/10 on offer for most goals to come after the break, a bet that landed in the last meeting.
Wolfsburg Women vs Lyon Women
Lyon were one of the most impressive sides in the revamped league phase of the UEFA Women’s Champions League and they should see off Wolfsburg without much fuss in the quarter-finals.
The French side were unbeaten in their six games, winning five, and defeated the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and Atletico Madrid.
They also defeated Wolfsburg 3-1 in France so it’s no surprise to see Lyon as 4/11 hot favourites with 888Sport for a win in Germany tonight.
Wolfsburg were pretty strong at home in the league phase, beating PSG and Manchester United before a narrow loss to Chelsea, so this could be a closer game than those odds suggests.
If you back the Germans at +2 in the handicap it pays 5/6 at SkyBet while the half-time draw offers more value at 15/8 with Bet365.
It’s hard to see Wolfsburg shutting Lyon out though and Melchie Dumornay is a decent 31/20 at BetMGM to add to her four-goal tally in this season’s Champions League.
Raith Rovers vs Partick Thistle
It could be a big night in the SPFL Championship as Partick Thistle look to cut the gap on leaders St Johnstone with a win away to Raith Rovers.
The top two faced off on Friday at Firhill and it felt like a missed opportunity for the Jags as a 0-0 stalemate kept them eight points behind.
This is their game in hand so Mark Wilson’s men will be looking to put a bit of pressure on Saints by banking three precious points.
Raith’s need for a win is just as big as they’re only five points above the relegation play-off slot in a congested table.
Dougie Imrie’s side claimed a much-needed 3-1 win over bottom side Airdrie on Saturday and that will boost their confidence after a poor run of results.
I can see this one being quite open as each manager goes for the win so BTTS and over 2.5 goals looks worth a punt at 6/5 with SkyBet.
Kai Montagu scored a match-winning double off the bench for Raith on Saturday and that should earn him a start tonight. He could be worth a long-odds punt for another goal at 11/2 with Bet365.
