Gambling911.com has your Fantasy Soccer for 10 December including Wednesday’s Champions League game between Chelsea and Sporting Lisbon. First let’s check out the odds and a matchup preview.
Chelsea was coming in with odds of 4/6, Sporting 4/1 and the Draw at 5/2.
Nearly 80% of the bets were coming in on Chelsea, who have won their last seven European games against Portuguese sides, including the 2013 Europa League Final against Benfica (2-1).
Sporting have gone through a Champions League group stage just once (2008/2009). They can do it again this season with a draw against Chelsea. Avoiding defeat means Sporting could qualify for the last 16 with Maribor avoiding defeat.
Chelsea’s John Terry and Willian will sit out this game ahead of Saturday’s matchup against Hull.
Roma v Manchester City had Roma as a 6/4 favorite, Man City at 2/1 and the Draw at 5/2.
Roma have won five of their last seven European home games against English opposition (D1 L1). Manchester City have never won a European game away from home against an Italian side (D2 L2).
Stevan Jovetic was expected to return from a hamstring injury for Wednesday's Champions League match against Roma and the fantasy outlook as Jovetic getting plenty of playing time in the wake of Sergio Aguero absence (6 weeks).
Likewise, Vincent Kompany was expected to return to take on Roma.
In other Fantasy Soccer news, Bayern’s Manuel Neuer has allowed just three goals in 14 league matches this season. He’s considered the best goalkeeper in the world at this point.
Bayern Munich is a huge favorite vs. Moscow Wednesday at 1/4 odds vs. Moscow at 11/1. Bayern and CSKA have met three times in the Champions League (last and this seasons' group stages), with the German side winning all the games and conceding just one goal in the process.
Barcelona v PSG had odds of Barcelona at 1/2 odds, PSG at 9/1 and the Draw at 7/1 (6/1 at some books).
