Atletico are an incredibly short 3/1 (Ladbrokes) tom pick up all three points on Wednesday, with the home side a very tempting even-money (Totesport). Porto were unlucky not to take something from their last match, against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, and they are a side who tend to perform much better at home than away in Europe.
In fact, in their last nine home Champions League matches, the Portuguese side have lost only twice, to Manchester United in the quarter finals of last year’s competition, and a surprise two-one defeat to Dynamo Kiev.
Perhaps the reason Porto’s price is not shorter is that the two sides have a recent history in Europe, as they faced each other in last year’s competition. Both matches resulted in a draw, which is available at 13/5 with Bet365, with the game in Portugal finishing goal-less (12/1, SkyBet).
However, that was last year, and this year Atletico Madrid are a shadow of the side which finished 4th in La Liga, and qualified from the Champions League group stages last term. True, they have talented forwards in Diego Forlan (7/1, Ladbrokes) and Sergio Aguero (8/1, Totesport) but their defence is poor, and the side is not playing as a team, and thus not getting results.
Porto too have impressive South American talent, with both top-scorer Falcao (13/2, SkyBet) and the brilliantly monikered Hulk (11/2, SkyBet) making impressive starts to the season. Defender Bruno Alves caused John Terry some problems from set-pieces at Stamford Bridge, and against a weaker, and smaller, defence on Wednesday, he could be a good bet at 33/1 (StanJames) to open the scoring.
