Nice 6/1 Treble This Evening

Tonight it is the Champions League that takes centre stage, with the 2nd leg of the quarter finals taking place.

Obviously most eyes will be on Old Trafford where Manchester United are worthy favourites against a thoroughly underwhelming Chelsea side. Man Utd made a host of changes at the weekend yet still beat Fulham easily, with their big guns back tonight I cannot see past a United victory. Torres has still yet to score while Drogba's record of 2 goals in 16 games against Manchester United hardly inspires, so if you fancy a bet on tonights game I'd suggest taking the 13/10 on offer at Victor Chandler for a United victory.

Barcelona travel to face Shakhtar Donesk in tonights other tie and the Catalan outfit are all but through after their 5-1 victory in the home leg. Tonight's match in Ukraine could be a different affair however. Without the suspended Andres Iniesta and injured Carles Puyol the Catalans could be vulnerable and a defeat on the night would be no surprise, especially given their poor Champions League away form. Shakhtar look the bet at a best priced 11/4.

Onto tonights league football now and we have another couple of stand out bets available.

Firstly I recommend backing 'over 2.5 goals' in the Derby County v Leeds match. Derby are averaging over 2.5 goals in 65% of their home games this season and have gone over in 6 of their last 7 games. Leeds matches are high scoring affairs too, with 70% of all league matches so far going over. The best available price is 4/5 with BetFred.

Next up I'd recommend backing 'over 2.5 goals' again, this time in the Barnsley v QPR game. Suprisingly the bookmakers think this will be a low scoring affair, with the unders market being favourite. However Barnsley have been scoring goals of late and 3 out of their 4 last matches have gone over 2.5 goals. QPR come into this game on the back of a 4-1 defeat to lowly Scunthorpe and will be looking to get a result here to keep their championship plans on track. The best price available for over 2.5 goals is 6/5 with Sportingbet.

Finally take a look at the Rochdale v Southampton game this evening. Both these teams know where the net is so punt on the 'both teams to score' market at 3/4 with Victor Chandler. Southampton have scored in each of their last 8 matches while Rochdale have only failed to score in 8 of their 40 matches so far this term.

Ignoring the Champions League tips, the league treble pays out at just under 6/1.

Enjoy your midweek, i'll be back tomorrow with a nice little slant on in-play football betting that is certainly paying off right now.
