Chelsea vs Lille Best Bet
Tue, Feb 22nd, 20:00 (UK Time)
It’s the champions of France against the champions of Europe but few are expecting either side to repeat their feats this season. Chelsea take on Lille at Stamford Bridge with the Blues as the surprise second seed. Thomas Tuchel’s men got lucky with the draw with potential matches against Bayern Munich or Real Madrid.
Lille may be the champions of France but this has been a trickier season for them. Goals have been an issue for them on all fronts. They scored only seven times in the group stage but still finished 1st in Group G ahead of Red Bull Salzburg and Sevilla. That’s the joint-lowest any side has scored in the Champions League group stage and still finished 1st.
The Blues will be full of confidence here. Chelsea have only lost one of their previous 10 European matches at home to sides from France. The last defeat was against PSG back in 2016. Tuchel has a fine record in cup competitions and I expect that to continue here.
The Asian line of Chelsea -1.5 is a lot for a team that has only scored six in five Premier League matches. Lille have been impressive away from home with two wins from three matches. Six of the seven goals they scored this season in the Champions League came on the road. Lille +1.5 looks good but I’m going for over 3 goals at 2.18.
Selection: Over 3 Goals
Best Odds: 2.18 (10bet)
Stakes: 8/10
Villarreal vs Juventus Best Bet
Tue, Feb 22nd, 20:00 (UK Time)
Villarreal welcome Juventus to Spain for this round of 16 match. It’s an interesting matchup. The Serie A side are the big favourites to progress but I have a feeling that there’s a surprise on its way here.
I think form will make the difference. The Yellow Submarine haven’t lost at home since November. They’ve won four of their last six, scoring 17 goals in the process. The only two matches they didn’t win were against Real Madrid and Atletico. They host a Juve side that hasn’t won for three away matches. They’ve conceded six in their last four on the road.
That’s why I’m backing the hosts to win this match. Villarreal look great value to win this match in 90 minutes at 2.50. I can see the hosts winning this first leg match and then looking to frustrate the visitors in the second leg. Villarreal sprung a few surprises in the Europa League last season. This is a step up but it’s a winnable game
Selection: Villarreal to Win
Best Odds: 2.5 (Unibet)
Stakes: 7/10

What is a Champions League Acca?
A Champions League acca is an accumulator bet, a type of wager that is made up of several different selections combined together into a single bet. A Champions League acca would usually consist of a single bet made up of four or more selections on Champions League matches.
The Champions League acca is a popular way to bet on European football matches. As more selections are added to the bet, the odds rapidly increase as all are multiplied together. This can lead to massive odds for a small stake if building an acca for a Champions League match.
As is the same with double and treble bets, all selections need to win or the accumulator loses. That is why so many look for Champions League acca tips for guidance.
