Two short priced teams ........


.... Werder Bremen and Inter Milan, will be popular with punters around the world tonight.

Both have to win, Bremen to keep in touch with Barcelona and Chelsea in Group A and Inter to stop the fans burning the stadium down. Only joking ......... sort of joking.

Following losses to Bayern and Sporting Lisbon, only 3 points will appease the Inter faithful and keep their European hopes alive.

These do look like two winners, but at the combined odds of 1.66 ( if you are lucky), we can afford to pass.

Elsewhere, Valencia look to have plenty of goals in them and are prepared to "slug it out", not like the Valencia of old. They are averaging almost 3 per game in the league and both they and tonight's opponents Shakhtar Donetsk are over 4 per game in the CL group stages.

Donetsk are better than their results might indicate, they were unlucky to lose 4-0 to Roma, infact, they had the best of it for significant periods. However, once they concede their heads can drop and they are forced to look for the win in any case. There should be plenty of chances here and obviously, I like the "over".

4 points over 2.5 goals Valencia-Donetsk 1.83 general quote.

Good Luck.
