5 Champions League Tips - 12/10/22

The first tip on this list comes from Club Brugge against Atletico Madrid, with the Belgian side sitting top of Group B with nine points from three matches.

Summer signing Ferran Jutgla has been superb so far this campaign, as the 23-year-old has scored two goals and created two assists in three Champions League appearances, doing both against Atletico last time out in this competition.

Jutgla has also been in impressive form domestically too, as the Spaniard has bagged six goals and made three assists in the Belgian Pro League.

Napoli against Ajax is a game that could be both entertaining and feisty, especially with the Dutch Eredivisie outfit looking to avenge the 6-1 humiliation they suffered at the Johan Cruijff Arena last week.

Last week’s reverse fixture saw a total of 15 shots on target, with Ajax having two, something they’ll be looking to significantly improve upon, whilst Napoli had 13 as the Serie A league leaders ran riot.

Barcelona and Inter Milan face off in a pivotal game in Group C of the Champions League with the hosts trailing their opponents by three points.

At present, Barca are in terrific form league-wise, as they are top of La Liga, having accumulated 22 points in eight matches, conceding just once, whilst scoring 20 goals. They can regard themselves as unlucky not to have won the game at the San Siro, having dominated the ball with 72% possession.

Polish striker Robert Lewandowski has been in superb form this season, scoring 12 goals in 11 matches.

Next up sees Viktoria Plzen against Bayern Munich in Group C of the Champions League.

Last time out, Bayern hammered the Czech outfit 5-0 at the Allianz Arena, with Leroy Sane scoring a brace, whilst former Liverpool man Sadio Mane bagging the Bavarian outfit's third goal of the game in the 21st minute.

At present, Sane is the Champions League’s second top scorer with four goals, whilst Mane has bagged seven goals for Bayern Munich in his debut campaign for the Bundesliga champions.

The final tip on this list comes from Rangers against Liverpool, with both Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah involved.

Jurgen Klopp’s men will be keen to put their 3-2 loss to Arsenal behind them when they face Rangers at Ibrox. The home side have had a poor start to life in Europe’s premier competition, having leaked nine goals in three matches.

When Liverpool beat Rangers 2-0 at Anfield last week, Nunez managed four shots on target, one more than his Egyptian colleague. On top of this, John Lundstram received a booking. The Reds have had 35 corners in their opening three matches of this season’s competition.
