The UEFA Champions League returns tonight, and Borussia Dortmund has the opportunity to seal Tottenham’s fate under Thomas Frank.
It seemed the Spurs manager would be dismissed before the Germans’ visit, with fans outraged after another disappointing home loss, this time to struggling West Ham.
Frank remains for now, but it’s difficult to envision the Dane retaining his job if the Bundesliga giants prevail in London.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Borussia Dortmund betting tips
Spurs may be struggling domestically, but their European form has been strong, winning all three home Champions League matches this season.
That’s likely why bookmakers don’t have a heavy favorite, but given Tottenham’s poor form, Dortmund seems worth a bet at 7/5 with most firms.
Frank is also missing key players, including suspended defender Micky Van De Ven, and a Dortmund team that has only lost once in the Bundesliga this season should capitalize.
Cristian Romero was booked again over the weekend and will face a tough challenge against Borussia’s skilled forwards. The Spurs defender is 7/4 for over 1.5 fouls at Bet365, which seems like a worthwhile bet.
Bodo/Glimt vs Manchester City
Manchester City hopes to overcome poor domestic form as they return to Champions League action against Bodo/Glimt.
Saturday’s derby defeat left Pep Guardiola’s team seven points behind the title leaders, having gone four league games without a win.
However, City secured two strong cup victories during that Premier League slump and are 7/20 favorites at Coral tonight.
Bodo/Glimt is emerging from the offseason, with the new Norwegian season yet to commence. They haven’t played since a 2-2 draw with Dortmund in mid-December and might be a bit out of practice.
I’m backing City to lead at both half-time and full-time, which pays 10/11 at 888Sport, while over 1.5 first-half goals is the same price at Betfred.
French talent Rayan Cherki is expected to return as Guardiola makes changes, and he’s 7/4 at Unibet for an assist.
Inter Milan vs Arsenal
Arsenal remains the only team with a perfect record in this season’s Champions League, but they face a tough away match against Inter Milan tonight.
The Gunners had a positive weekend, increasing their Premier League lead over Manchester City and Aston Villa.
However, Mikel Arteta’s side will regret their 0-0 draw with Nottingham Forest, their second consecutive Premier League stalemate.
Arsenal’s attack is currently underperforming, and they now face one of Europe’s toughest defenses, with Inter conceding just four goals in six Champions League games.
Arsenal’s defensive record is even better, having allowed only one goal in Europe this season, so betting on a low-scoring game could be lucrative tonight.
Under 2.5 goals is valued at 11/13 with Unibet, while betting against BTTS is 21/20 with 888Sport.
The midfield battle will be crucial, and combining fouls for Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan pays 13/10 at Bet365.
