Tuesday Acca | |
207/1 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning This fourfold leans on strong home dynamics and stylistic mismatches. Benfica’s intensity in Lisbon suggests fast starts. Juventus–Dortmund projects end-to-end play favouring BVB’s transitions. Real Madrid and Marseille promise a shootout at the Bernabéu. Spurs’ disciplined shape and Villarreal’s absentees point to a clean-sheet home win. |
Benfica vs Qarabag FK
Gram Dodd; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Benfica are usually sharp out of the blocks at the Estádio da Luz, and this looks an ideal platform to seize early control. Bruno Lage’s men arrive unbeaten across eight competitive fixtures, blending a compact back line with a slick supply line from midfield to the front. The Portuguese champions-in-waiting (on current form) have conceded only twice in the league, while their pressing in central areas routinely squeezes opponents into errors high up the pitch. Qarabag deserve credit for reaching this stage again, yet their away performances in Europe often dip when faced with higher tempo and relentless territorial pressure.
Qurban Qurbanov’s side have started their domestic season unevenly and, although they carry counter-attacking threat through the wide areas, their transitional defending can be stretched by quick switches to the flanks. With Nicolás Otamendi organising and Vangelis Pavlidis offering a focal point in attack, Benfica look well placed to lead at the interval and finish the job after the break. The home crowd should amplify that momentum, making a wire-to-wire success the percentage call.

Juventus vs Borussia Dortmund
Wolfgang Shotten; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Dortmund head to Turin with confidence after three wins and a draw to open their campaign, and their away form is quietly robust: two victories and a stalemate from three road trips. They have tightened up compared with last term, posting three clean sheets in four, yet this assignment will demand more front-foot ambition. Juventus are perfect domestically but remain a little volatile in European tempo changes, as seen last season when the league phase unravelled and Allianz nights proved less forbidding.
Igor Tudor’s side can certainly score—Jonathan David and Dušan Vlahović offer penalty-box punch—and they have found the net seven times already. However, Dortmund’s transitions under Niko Kovač are rapid, with Julian Brandt knitting attacks and Serhou Guirassy punishing broken structures. BVB also benefit from set-piece prowess, an area where Juve’s marking has wavered in recent continental outings. Expect the hosts to create, yet the visitors’ pace and verticality can tilt a see-saw contest their way, making Dortmund to win with both teams obliging particularly attractive.
Best bet – Borussia Dortmund to win & Both Teams To Score
Real Madrid vs Marseille
Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Xabi Alonso’s Real Madrid are four from four in La Liga and have shown a willingness to attack quickly, even when reduced to ten men as at San Sebastián. Kylian Mbappé and Arda Güler both struck at the weekend, while Vinícius provides constant penetration from the left and Jude Bellingham’s potential involvement—whether from the start or off the bench—adds late-game shot volume. Madrid’s historical record against Marseille is pristine and usually high-scoring, with three or more goals in most meetings. The French visitors, under Roberto De Zerbi, travel boldly; they dismantled Lorient 4-0 and have already been involved in a 5-2 this season, an indicator of open patterns when the game loosens.
Their wide combinations with Benjamin Pavard stepping out and Mason Greenwood cutting inside create shooting lanes, yet those same adventurous movements invite space in behind for Madrid’s sprinters. With the Bernabéu energy, elite forwards on both teams, and Marseille’s inconsistent away defending, a goal-heavy spectacle is the logical read. Pushing the line out to over 4.5 rewards the expectation of Madrid’s ruthlessness coupled with Marseille’s capacity to contribute.
Best bet – Over 4.5 Goals
Tottenham Hotspur vs Villarreal
John Pentin; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Spurs have re-established defensive organisation under Thomas Frank, stringing together clean sheets while still committing numbers forward. West Ham were handled comfortably at the weekend in a 3-0, and the structure around Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven has been sound, with Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie timing their raids without exposing the centre. The North Londoners are formidable on European nights at their stadium, unbeaten in 20 UEFA home ties and blanked just once in their last 16 continental matches. Villarreal arrive with wobbly form—only one point from their last two league fixtures—and their historical Champions League record against English clubs is stark: no wins in 14 attempts.
Marcelino’s side are also shorn of key attackers, with Gerard Moreno sidelined and Nicolas Pépé likely to be repurposed as a makeshift spearhead. That reduces their out-ball and limits counter-punching quality. With Richarlison or Randal Kolo Muani to occupy the centre-backs and Xavi Simons supplying, Tottenham should control territory and deny clear chances, making victory without concession the smart angle.
Best bet – Tottenham to Win to Nil
