Wednesday's Player Cards Double 🟨 @ 22.00

Gabriel Jesus

Obispo has been booked in both his Champions League starts

Armando Obispo has picked up five yellow cards in 14 games this season and will be up against Nicolò Tresoldi, who's been one of Club Brugge's standout players in the Champions League.

The Club Brugge striker has been fouled 24 times in 13 games, averaging 1.85 per match, and has already shown how dangerous he can be with his hat-trick against Inter Milan.

Obispo is averaging 1.5 fouls per game and has given away at least two fouls in six of his 14 appearances.

Irfan Peljto will be the referee, and he's already handed out four yellow cards in Slovan Bratislava vs Stuttgart and seven in Union Saint-Gilloise vs Bodø/Glimt in this season's Champions League.

That's not good news for Obispo, who's already been booked in both his Champions League starts and has given away at least two fouls in each.

Harold Moukoudi's biggest challenge will be dealing with Real Madrid's attack, especially Mbappé, who's scored three goals in three Champions League games and is likely to be his most direct opponent through the middle.

The centre-back gave away three fouls against Manchester City and picked up a yellow card against Shakhtar Donetsk in his last two Champions League games.

Bellingham is another concern, having been fouled 30 times in 11 LaLiga games and another ten times in his first three Champions League matches this season.

AEK are averaging 16 fouls per game in the Greek league, while they've already picked up five yellow cards in three Champions League matches.

Referee Maurizio Mariani has been pretty strict this season, averaging 4.33 yellow cards and calling more than 26 fouls per match in Serie A.

He's been just as strict in Europe, handing out ten yellow cards and one red in two Champions League qualifying games this season.

Wednesday's BTTS Treble ⚽ @ 2.88

Andy Robson

Como have scored ten goals in three Champions League games

This could be a really exciting game between two inform sides, especially Club Brugge who have won each of their last eight matches - netting 25 goals in the process (3.1 per game).

PSV have conceded an xG of 1.0 or higher in all three of their Champions League matches, seeing BTTS on Matchday 1 as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Shakthar at home.

They put seven goals past Wilhelm at the weekend, which is a snapshot of the scoring power that PSV can possess at home when they are fully firing.

Club Brugge have seen BTTS in two of their three Champions League matches, competing well against Aston Villa and Inter Milan and even winning 4-3 against the latter as the away side.

They've seen BTTS in each of their last two league games ahead of this clash, which is one that both sides will see as pivotal to their chances of progressing from the league phase with more challenging assignments to come.

Lens haven't kept a clean sheet in either Ligue 1 or the Champions League this season, conceding seven goals in their first three European games.

Como look really dangerous right now, having scored ten goals in three Champions League games, including two 4-1 wins over Leipzig and Manchester United.

Nico Paz has five goals and six assists this season, while Douvikas has already scored eight times.

Lens have been doing pretty well going forward, though, averaging 1.8 goals and more than six shots on target per home game.

Even in their defeat to Sporting, they managed 21 shots and put plenty of pressure on their opponents.

The good news for the home side is that Como have conceded in every away game this season, averaging 1.54 xGA per match.

Both teams have also scored in all three of Como's Champions League games, including their 3-2 defeat to Feyenoord.

Manchester City are going through their worst defensive spell of the season, having conceded in each of their last six games across all competitions.

That's good news for Leipzig, who've won every home game this season, averaging 3.8 goals and more than 19 shots per match.

Antonio Nusa has been their standout player, with four goals and six assists in eight league games.

The problem is that Leipzig have really struggled against stronger opponents in the Champions League, conceding four goals against Como and another four against Real Madrid.

Manchester City have the second-best attack in the Premier League, with 20 goals in nine games, and they're averaging around 2 xG per match.

Both teams have scored in two of City's three Champions League games, and while they might concede again, they should have plenty of chances to score against a Leipzig side that let in six against Bayern in October.

Wednesday's Champions League Accumulator 🏆 @ 3.09

Andy Robson

Leipzig have scored 18 in four home Bundesliga games (4.5 per game)

This could be a really exciting game between two inform sides, especially Club Brugge who have won each of their last eight matches - netting 25 goals in the process (3.1 per game).

PSV have conceded an xG of 1.0 or higher in all three of their Champions League matches, seeing BTTS on Matchday 1 as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Shakthar at home.

They put seven goals past Wilhelm at the weekend, which is a snapshot of the scoring power that PSV can possess at home when they are fully firing.

Club Brugge have seen BTTS in two of their three Champions League matches, competing well against Aston Villa and Inter Milan and even winning 4-3 against the latter as the away side.

They've seen BTTS in each of their last two league games ahead of this clash, which is one that both sides will see as pivotal to their chances of progressing from the league phase with more challenging assignments to come.

It may not be a popular approach, but you have to respect the defensive organisation and resilience of this Arsenal side.

They refused to buckle against Liverpool at Anfield last time out, marking the first time that Mikel Arteta has won at the ground as a manager - surviving 17 shots and 52 touches in their box to secure a 1-0 victory.

This should be really routine for Arsenal, Slavia Prague have struggled at this level and have failed to win any of their three matches - losing against Sabah and Lens in their opening two games of the Champions League.

Arsenal find the early stages of the Champions League so routine, they won all eight of their games in the league phase last season, scoring 23 goals in the process and only conceding four.

These sides actually faced off as part of that campaign, with Arsenal coming away comfortable 3-0 winners as the away side - despite Arteta rotating quite heavily for that game.

Betis are a really complete side and have won all three of their Champions League games this season against Feyenoord, Porto and Lille.

They were the away side for their opening game of the Champions League, managing to score three goals past Lille with an xG of 1.80 from 20 shots.

Betis have only failed to score in one of their 14 matches across all competitions this season. That blank came against Celta Vigo a few weeks ago, and still saw Betis have 15 shots and record an xG of 1.15.

Dortmund have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their three Champions League matches this season against Sabah, Villarreal and Bodo Glimt.

I think Leipzig can contribute to the goal tally here, they've scored a remarkable 18 goals across their four home games in the Bundesliga (4.5 per game), notably winning all four of these matches without conceding.

City are a natural step up in quality from the sides they've faced in the Bundesliga, so I wouldn't read too much into Leipzig keeping those clean sheets - but the scoring power is undeniable.

Leipzig have seen 3+ goals in two of their three Champions League games against Real Madrid and Como, conceding four goals in both games. They're managed by former City man Martin Demichelis, who wants to play in quite an expansive way.

Man City will welcome Leipzig coming onto them, they've seen 3+ goals in each of their last two Champions League matches and in eight of their last nine matches more widely.
