Porto vs Arsenal Champions League Tips

Champions League Porto vs Arsenal Betting Tips:

The Portuguese giants versus the Premier League’s children.  Could we ask for a better clash?  Probably yes, but none the less this will be an interesting tactical approach from both teams.  I’m sure Arsene and gunners fans will have been happy with the draw; however lest not forget their achievements in almost knocking Man Utd out of the Champions League last season, and also winning the trophy back in 2004 with Jose “Special One” Mourinho.

Overall, I think this is the hardest game to put a result on.  In my opinion Arsenal strongly lack firepower upfront, with their playful 4-3-3 formation not centered around any prolific CF upfront.  Depending on Fabregas and Arshavin for goals (who have had a pretty dry spell lately), I don’t see Arsenal capable of scoring more than 1 away.  Bendtner, with odds of 34.0 at Betfair to score first, is having a very disappointing season in my opinion, with a number of missed chances and opportunities in previous matches.  With regards to Porto I think their main player Hulk will deliver at least once, so I’d go for either a 1-1 or 1-0 result for Porto.  If you’re looking for a great value bet for this Champions League encounter, my best tip is for Arsenal to win 1-0 (34.0) or 0-0 for 9.0 odds.  Bet £5 on each of these, if it’s 1-0, you’ll pocket a nice £170 for your football winnings.
