The hosts had quite a roller coaster of a weekend, their coach lost his brother, who died in a tragic accident and CSKA clinched the domestic championship.
I am going to suggest that we oppose them today, that match on Saturday was played in Vladivostock, which, according to my schoolboy atlas, is a 15,000 km round trip, through 7 time zones and a 10 hour flight ! What an ordeal and hardly the ideal preparation for tonight's match.
Porto will have to look for the win, but a draw will not be too bad for CSKA, it will leave their fate in their own hands, with a trip to group whipping boys Hamburg, still to come.
It is hardly a trip into the unknown for Porto, the pair met two years ago, the Portugese champions winning 1-0 in Moscow, despite the temperature hitting -11 c. It will be a cosy zero degrees today at kick off, so shortsleeves for all.
BTW read that 10 crates of champagne were drunk on the plane trip back to Moscow, not sure how true that is.
lay 3 points CSKA to win 2.40 betfair.
Good Luck.
