Manchester City look to have been gifted a golden opportunity to reach the Champions League semi-finals when taking on Lyon in Lisbon. However, it is worth remembering that Les Gones did well against the Blues during last season's group stage, winning 2-1 away and drawing 2-2 at home. More...

Barcelona and Bayern Munich are two perennial Champions League powerhouses but the German giants look in much better shape this season. Barca will always be dangerous with Lionel Messi in their side but the calibre of his supporting cast seems to have slipped in recent years. More...

Barcelona are as big as 15/2 in bwin's Champions League winner predictions after a relatively unconvincing 3-1 victory over Napoli. Next up for Barca is Bayern Munich, who are 14/5 second favourites after beating Chelsea 4-1 in Germany to advance 7-1 on aggregate. More...

Barcelona have stuttered a bit this season but past history suggests they should account for Napoli in the Champions League at Camp Nou. The Catalan giants have drawn away in the first leg of a European tie on 26 occasions, but eventually went on to progress in 21 of those encounters. More...

Chelsea face a mission impossible when visiting Bayern Munich in the Champions League, but we're backing the Blues to at least salvage some pride. Frank Lampard's men were crushed 3-0 in the first leg in London back in February but have continued to develop since returning from lockdown. More...

PSG are fancied to have just too much nous for Atalanta in their single-leg Champions League quarter-final tie in Lisbon. The French aristocrats may be hampered by a lack of match sharpness but have the class to cope against opponents who look in too deep at this level. More...

RB Leipzig and Atletico Madrid have contrasting styles that could lead to a close encounter when they meet in the Champions League quarter-finals. The German outfit generally take a positive approach, whereas Los Colchoneros rely on a dogged determination to grind out results. More...

Sevilla looked a very professional side when knocking Roma out of the Europa League and are fancied to see off Wolves in the quarter-finals. Wanderers are another well-drilled outfit who play with plenty of spirit, but may just be a bit behind their Spanish opponents in overall quality. More...

Shakhtar Donetsk played some entertaining football in Wednesday's defeat of Wolfsburg and may prove too hot for Basel to handle. The Swiss outfit did well to get past last season's Europa League semi-finalists Eintracht Frankfurt but still look a touch limited at this level. More...

Inter Milan have been cut to 333/100 in bwin's Europa League winner odds after beating Getafe 2-0 to reach the quarter-finals. Romelu Lukaku and Christian Eriksen were on target for the Nerazzurri, who received a reprieve when Jorge Molina dragged a second-half penalty wide. More...

Man City are in pole position to reach the Champions League quarter-finals after beating Real Madrid 2-1 in Spain back in February. Another exciting encounter is expected at Etihad Stadium and it must be noted City have conceded 10 goals in five home knockout games under Pep Guardiola in this competition. More...

Juventus have work to do in Turin when trying to overturn a 1-0 first-leg deficit in their Champions League tie with Lyon. However, the Bianconeri showed enough in France to suggest they can get the job done against opponents who have looked fragile on the road at times. More...

Olympiakos performed with great credit during a 1-1 first-leg draw against Wolves in Greece after going down to 10 men with less than half an hour gone. Having knocked out Arsenal in the previous round via a 2-1 extra-time win in London, we feel they command plenty of respect at Molineux. More...

Rangers were outclassed by Leverkusen in the first leg of their Europa League tie at Ibrox but may salvage some pride in the return fixture. Steven Gerrard's side have hit the ground running in the new Scottish season, whereas their opponents must overcome a month's absence from competitive action. More...

Sevilla and Roma both go into this single-leg Europa League tie in terrific form, but the Spanish outfit get the nod on their superb record in this competition. Los Rojiblancos have lifted the trophy a record five times, including a hat-trick of outright victories from 2014 to 2016. More...

Basel are holding all the aces against Eintracht Frankfurt after an impressive 3-0 away win in the first leg and can prevail again in Switzerland. The hosts are coming off a solid end to the Swiss season, whereas their opponents last featured in competitive action over a month ago. More...

Man Utd all but guaranteed themselves a place in the Europa League quarter-finals when beating LASK Linz 5-0 in Austria back in March. However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will still be keen to pick up a positive result in the return fixture ahead of travelling to Germany for the closing stages. More...

Inter Milan are rated a clear form choice to see off Getafe in Wednesday's single-leg Europa League last-16 tie in Gelsenkirchen. The Nerazzurri finished strongly to claim second place in Serie A, whereas their opponents laboured badly in La Liga after returning from lockdown. More...

Shakhtar are in pole position to reach the Europa League quarter-finals after beating Wolfsburg 2-1 in Germany, but we're expecting a close second encounter. The visitors are unbeaten in nine straight away matches in this competition and have only ever lost on the road in England. More...

Istanbul Basaksehir looked much the better team when beating FC Copenhagen 1-0 in Turkey in the first leg of their Europa League tie. Having done well away from home during the group stage this term, we're sticking with Okan Buruk's side to confirm that superiority in Denmark. More...

Chelsea have lost three times to Man Utd this season but have been handed a good opportunity to enjoy the last laugh in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final. Both of these teams are also involved in a battle for Premier League top-four places, but the timing of this contest greatly favours the Blues. More...

Arsenal have an awful record against Manchester City and are not expected to buck a trend of seven straight defeats in Saturday's FA Cup semi-final. The Blues have prevailed by at least two clear goals in all of those matches, including a couple of 3-0 Premier League victories this term. More...

Leicester and Chelsea meet at the FA Cup quarter-final stage for the second time in three years. The Blues triumphed 2-1 after extra-time on their way to lifting the trophy for an eighth occasion in 2018 by beating Manchester United in the final courtesy of Eden Hazard’s penalty. More...

Sheffield United are enjoying a memorable season with them fighting for European football in the Premier League and one game from Wembley in the FA Cup. Chris Wilder’s side have not had things all their own way en route to the quarter-finals while Arsenal’s youngsters have played a big part in their journey. More...

Norwich put their fight for Premier League survival to one side as they aim to reach the FA Cup semi-finals for the first time since 1992. The Canaries finally landed a home tie after three away trips while Manchester United will be seeking to equal Arsenal’s record of 13 FA Cup victories. More...

With COVID-19 causing havoc among the sporting world, we are taking a look at the latest football coronavirus news in terms of fixtures being postponed. Major leagues and competitions have been shut down around the globe, with a number of high-profile players and managers already affected by the disease. More...

Liverpool have to pull off another famous Champions League comeback after losing 1-0 away to Atletico Madrid at a raucous Wanda Metropolitano. However, still fresh in the memory is the manner in which the Reds incredibly overturned a 3-0 first-leg deficit against Barcelona in last season's semis. More...

PSG are under pressure to perform after losing 2-1 to Borussia Dortmund in Germany but do have the talent to turn this Champions League tie around. The French aristocrats looked dangerous for long periods of the second half at Westfalenstadion and are usually much stronger on home turf. More...
