talkSPORT betting tips – Best football bets and expert advice for Tuesday 10 December
The start of Matchday Six in the league phase of the Champions League is the highlight of a busy Tuesday of footballing action. There are also a host of games in the Championship, the EFL Trophy and the FA Trophy and we have picked out our three best bets for the stacked line-up with a focus on Europe’s elite competition. GET £30 IN FREE BETS WITH TALKSPORT BET Bet of the Day Liverpool to win to nil – 17/10 Liverpool have barely put a foot wrong so far this season, winning 11 of their first 14 league games to open up a huge gap at the top of the Premier League, while they have been perfect in Europe with five wins from five to top the Champions League table. Girona were the surprise package in La Liga last season, finishing third to earn the right to take on Europe’s elite, but the challenge of qualifying for the knockout stages looks to be beyond them. Michel’s men have won just one of their opening five games, beating Slovan Bratislava while losing the other four, and they will do well to pick up another point with games against the Reds, AC Milan and Arsenal to come. The Spanish outfit have failed to score in three of their five games in the Champions League, while the Reds have not conceded a goal since the third minute of Matchday One against AC Milan, blanking Bologna, RB Leipzig, Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid since then. Girona were thrashed 3-0 at home by Real on Saturday and, with Arne Slot’s men having had the weekend off, they should be fully refreshed to make it five consecutive wins to nil on the biggest stage. Special of the Day Leeds to beat Middlesbrough and BTTS – Bet Boost to 13/5 There is a massive game in the Championship on Tuesday night as first take on fifth as Leeds United host Middlesbrough at Elland Road. The Whites have perhaps not truly convinced this season and yet they sit top of the pile, albeit on goal difference, although that is largely due to their Elland Road fortress, having won eight and losing just once in their 10 home games so far. Daniel Farke’s men have bagged 22 and conceded just five in front of their home fans, although promotion hopefuls Boro will provide a stern test on Tuesday night. The Teessiders are the leading scorers on the road in the Championship and do have the confidence from a 3-0 win at Elland Road in the EFL Cup earlier this season. However, Leeds had won the previous four Championship meetings with Boro and are unbeaten in the last six, and they can outscore Michael Carrick’s men once again.

Dinamo bounced back from a 9-2 hammering at Bayern Munich to pick up seven points from their next three games, while the Bhoys dusted off a 7-1 defeat at Borussia Dortmund with five points from their next three, which included an impressive goalless draw at Atalanta. Nenad Bjelica’s men were beaten 3-0 at home by Borussia Dortmund in their most recent European venture as part of an ongoing five-match winless run, while the goals have dried up with just one scored in their last four games. Brendan Rodgers’ side should be confident of a positive result against a struggling opponent, but given the importance of the game and the Scottish champions’ struggles on the road in Europe, it is hardly likely to be an all-out attacking contest. The Bhoys have the form to nick a tense affair and take a big step towards the knockout stages. talkSPORT BET Offer Bet £10 And Get £30 In Free Bets CLAIM HERE T&Cs: 18+ New customers only.
