Matchday 2 : October 4th, 2023
Atletico Madrid vs Feyenoord Rotterdam
UCL Odds: Atletico Madrid -156 vs Feyenoord Rotterdam +420
Wednesday, October 4 at 12:45 pm ET
Cívitas Metropolitano, Madrid, Spain
Atletico has home pitch advantage, but the LaLiga squad may not be up to the task on Wednesday. Atletico drew 1-1 versus Lazio in their first UEFA Champions League match of the season.
The home chalk in this started the current winning streak with a huge 3-1 victory over rival Real Madrid. A backward step is inevitable. It’s just a matter of when.
Feyenoord is on a 6-match winning streak and offers overlay odds. This is a good match to take a shot against the chalk.

SIGNAL IDUNA PARK, Dortmund, Germany
Dortmund has won 3-of-4, but the teams in the Bundesliga this season don’t seem as solid as they did in 2022-2023. Freiburg, Wolfsburg, and Hoffenheim, the three teams Dortmund beat, are a combined 11-6 with a Freiburg draw.
Since a stunning 5-1 loss to Inter on Sep 16, AC Milan has played great, drawing against Newcastle and winning 3 straight league games. The odds make the road team the play.

Celtic vs Lazio
UCL Odds: Celtic +186 vs Lazio +139
Wednesday, October 4 at 3:00 pm ET
Celtic Park, Glasgow, Scotland
Celtics has won 4-of-5. But Celtic’s 1 match versus a solid club ended in a 2-0 loss. The match was Celtic’s first UEFA Champions League game and it happened against scorching Feyenoord.
Lazio heads into this playing okay but not great soccer. The Serie A squad fell to AC Milan at Guisseppe Meaza via 2 goals in their last. Beating Lazio could be tough to accomplish. But the draw is possible.

FC Porto vs Barcelona
UCL Odds: FC Porto +290 vs Barcelona -112
Wednesday, October 4 at 3:00 pm ET
Estádio do Dragão, Porto, Portugal
Porto had been on a 3-match winning streak, but in their last, rival Benfica ended Porto’s streak, beating the home underdog in this 1-0. It’s doubtful Porto starts a new streak.
Barcelona is playing great. Barca has had their hiccups, like a 2-2 draw versus Mallorca a couple of matches back. But, overall, Barcelona is thriving. The road team gets the win.

Newcastle United vs Paris Saint-Germain
UCL Odds: Newcastle United +156 vs Paris Saint-Germain +161
Wednesday, October 4 at 3:00 pm ET
St. James’ Park, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England
Newcastle is at home and faces a Paris Saint-Germain squad that doesn’t always show it’s best on the road. Not only that, but Newcastle as something to prove.
The odds on the Premier League squad also makes them an overlay. So backing Newcastle is the way to go.

RB Leipzig vs Manchester City
UCL Odds: RB Leipzig +380 vs Manchester City -152
Wednesday, October 4 at 3:00 pm ET
Red Bull Arena, Leipzig, Germany
Without Ilkay Gudogan, City isn’t the same. The Sky Blues allowed Gudogan to fly to Barcelona in a transfer.
It took some time, but the effect has finally come to fruition. Man City is on a 2-match losing streak heading into this. The losses came against Newcastle, which makes sense, and Wolverhampton, which doesn’t make sense. At +380, RBL is an overlay.
