5 Champions League Tips - 14/9/22

The first tip on this list comes from AC Milan against Dinamo Zagreb, with the hosts trailing the Croatian outfit in the group.

A player to look out for here is Portuguese forward Rafael Leao, who is priced at 9/4 to have two or more shots on target in this match.

The former Lille man has had eight shots on target in his last four league matches, scoring three goals and creating three assists against the likes of Bologna, Sassuolo, Inter Milan and Sampdoria.

Chelsea will be looking to kick off their new era under Graham Potter in the right way, as they host Red Bull Salzburg at Stamford Bridge.

Two players who will be eager to impress as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Raheem Sterling, as they are arguably Chelsea’s best two attacking players on paper.

Aubameyang was in good form prior to joining the Blues, having managed 10 goals and one assist in 16 La Liga outings for Barcelona following his move from Arsenal last January.

Meanwhile, Sterling has already got off the mark, scoring three times in seven matches. The 27-year-old managed 44 goal contributions in 67 Champions League matches for Manchester City.

Juventus will be looking to bounce back from last week’s defeat to PSG by beating Benfica on Wednesday night at the Juventus Stadium.

Serbian forward Dusan Vlahovic has had a promising start to the season, as he has scored four goals in six matches for the Old Lady.

Although Benfica have had a perfect start to the campaign, they did struggle to a 2-0 win over Maccabi Haifa on matchday one, thanks to goals by Rafa Silva, and a world-class long-range strike from Alex Grimaldo.

If Juventus are to stand any chance of going through in the group, then they really must win here.

Maccabi Haifa and PSG go head to head in a game that the visitors are expected to win in a comfortable manner.

PSG have been absolutely rampant in Ligue 1 this season, accumulating 19 points from seven matches, whilst scoring 25 goals.

A player who could likely add to his Champions League tally here is Kylian Mbappe, who scored a brace in their 2-1 home win over Juventus on matchday one. The former AS Monaco man has scored nine goals in seven appearances so far this campaign.

The final tip on this list sees Champions League holders Real Madrid host RB Leipzig at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The away side will be fearing the worst after being thrashed 4-1 at home by Shakhtar Donetsk on matchday one, whilst Real Madrid have already put in good groundwork, as they beat Celtic 3-0 at Celtic Park in their Champions League opener.

Vinicius Junior has been in excellent form this season, as the 22-year-old Brazilian forward has scored five goals and created two assists in seven matches, including the opener in Real’s win over Celtic following Karim Benzema being substituted due to injury in that match.
