-Shakhtar vs AC Milan-
This is a table topping clash. A lot of the times these table topping clashes end in draws, but I don't see this happening here with Celtic and Benfica tailing them with 3 points. AC Milan get Ronaldo back, although I very much doubt that he will be played. Shakhtar just don't do good against Italian opposition. I think AC Milan are going to take out their bad start to Serie A on Shakhtar.

AC Milan Pk, -1/2 ... +101


-Celtic vs Benfica-
This is a must win affair for both sides. Celtic are really looking for a win in front of their fans from the bad away games they've been playing. Last time out they took Benfica out at home with a 3-0 win, and I think they will be looking for the same this time around.

Celtic -1/2 ... +104


-Valencia vs Rosenborg-
Valencia are boosted by David Villa's return for their match-up against Rosenborg. Rosenborg sits second in the table with Valencia 1 point behind them in third. You can bet that this is a must win for Valencia, and according to Rosenborg, they stated that they really are looking to upset Valencia again. Rosenborg can steal a goal against Valencia and help the over hit.

-Olympiacos vs Real Madrid-
Olympiacos played a great game against Real Madrid a couple of weeks ago. With only 10 men, they managed to keep a 2-1 lead late into the game until Real Madrid finally dismantled them to win 4-2. I think Olympiacos showed that they are a great match-up against Real Madrid, especially at home. Their last 2 home meetings against Real ended in a 2-1 victory and a 3-3 draw. I see them covering again this time around.

I find it tough backing Milan at these prices. That 4-1 scoreline from last matchday is a bit misleading as Shakhtar had quite a few chances themselves. I'd consider a draw a good result for Milan here.

It will be interesting to see if Shakhtar will attack like they did last week or play a bit more cautious. If they decide to play their regular style and try to take it to Milan again the Over 2.5 will look very nice.

I agree that both Milan and Shakhtar would be more than happy with a draw, but I think AC Milan will be looking to play hard for the win to get a run of good results going, especially for their Serie A campaign. According to Uefa.com, Shakhtar coach Mircea Lucescu claims that they will not be playing as attacking as they did at the San Siro, so giving Milan more time on the attacking end is asking for a loss.

FC Porto vs Marseille
correct score 0:0 (at worst 1:1)

any opinion?

I actually agree, although Marseille haven't been getting results in France, they've been doing great in the Champions League. Porto's record against them is 2-1, so they aren't new to victory against Marsielle, but not having their captain on the field and the way Marseille has been playing in Europe makes me believe that the +1/2, +1 handicap is the way to go. I'm not one to field correct scores, but 0-0 and 1-1 seem like the way to go, if you were to do that I'd cover your correct score bet with at least a "draw" bet or +1/2, +1 handicap bet just in case a 2-2 or even 3-3 draw occurs. I'll be rooting for the 0-0 though, good luck!

After looking into it more, I have actually decided to add Marsielle in the mix

Solid day today guys. 4 unit bet on Olympiacos holds! AC Milan wins their game 3-0 for a solid outcome. Celtic win a close margin as well. Rosenborg STUN Valencia! I CAN'T BELIEVE Valencia couldn't put just 1 in the back of the net at home to at least push for the over! And Marseille almost had it til the last 12 minutes of the game losing by 1, so a half-loss there.
