REAL MADRID-LYON / LILLE- ANDERLECHT


Final post of the day, just a few lines about these two matches.

Lyon do not seem at their best right now, they have struggled to beat two of the weaker teams in Ligue 1 in recent games. I can accept that motivation may be something of a problem for those matches, but they could have lost both.

Tonight they are without Fred, Govou, Wiltord and Benzema and you just get the impression that Real are out for revenge, the French champions having got much the better of three recent meetings.

I expect Real to win tonight and to continue their recent high scoring run.

Anderlecht are taking some 12,000 supporters with them to France, along with a team weakened by injuries to key players and with a 3rd choice goalkeeper.

They will be forced to "go for it" as only a win will realistically, keep their qualification hopes alive. Lille can seal a place in the last 16 with a win, should the other group result go their way.

Therefore, I expect the match to become more and more open and see some value in the "over", especially with the two goal option.

3 points Real Madrid -1/2 goal 2.0 betfair.
4 points over 2 goals Lille-Anderlecht asian line 1.75.

Good Luck.
