CSKA Moscow vs Tottenham Hotspurr – 27/9 Betting Tips Champions League
Tottenham Need to Respond in Russia Following Monaco Defeat
LEAGUE: Champions League
GAME: CSKA Moscow vs Tottenham Hotspur
LOCATION: Stadion PFK CSKA
DATE: Tuesday 27/9
TIME: 20:45
This will be the first meeting, in any competition between CSKA Moscow and Tottenham Hotspur.
CSKA Moscow played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at Bayer Leverkusen in the first match of Champions League Group E. Having gone 2-0 down in early in the first half, things were looking bad for the Russian’s, however, an inspired comeback before half-time, meant the teams went in level at 2-2 and that is how things remained in the second half.
While CSKA will be pleased with their result, Tottenham were shocked by Monaco and went down 2-1 at Wembley. Being away from White Hart Lane is certainly not going to help Tottenham’s cause in the Champions League this season and although the crowd will mainly be Tottenham fans, it will never feel like a real home match. With that in mind, Tottenham need to pick something up from this game.
Tips
We have looked closely at the following aspects of this match, which offer good betting value:
- Winner
- Match Result and Both Teams to Score
- Over/Under 3.5 Goals
CSKA Strong at Home
CSKA Moscow have only lost one of their last seven home matches in the Champions League and have proven difficult to beat on their own soil. They have picked up draws against the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City and Roma in recent years and as result, facing Tottenham will not give them too many headaches.
Game Tip: Draw is 3.3 at Bet365
Clean Sheets a Problem for CSKA
Despite only having lost one of their last even home matches in the Champions League, CSKA Moscow have struggled defensively and failed to keep a single clean sheet in any of those games. Therefore, Tottenham will fancy their chances of scoring goals but that does not guarantee maximum points, as CSKA rarely fail to find the back of the net when playing at home.
Game Tip: Draw and Both Teams to Score is 4.6 at 888sport
Home and Away Records Suggests Goals
CSKA Moscow home matches in the Champions have produced plenty of goals recently, with an average of 3.28 over the course of the last seven games played. Furthermore, Tottenham, when playing away from home in the Champions League, have seen 4.5 goals scored over their last six matches. With this in mind, Over 3.5 Goals has to be considered a good bet.
Game Tip: Over 3.5 Goals is 3.6 at Ladbrokes
