Football Bet of the Day: Dragons to show no mercy in Israel

Goals could rain down on Maccabi Tel Aviv tonight

"Maccabi Tel Aviv have lost 3/3 in Group G so far, conceding eight unanswered goals"

Back Porto -1.0 & -1.5 on the Asian Handicap @ 2.206/5 v Maccabi Tel Aviv

Tobias Gourlay expects Maccabi Tel Aviv's Champions League campaign to fizzle out at home to Porto this evening

Quite the opposite of being sparked into life, Wolfsburg were electrocuted by their trip to Philips Stadion. 2-0 they lost to PSV, and we went down with them.

Porto look like the team to help us bounce straight back. This season and last, the Portuguese outfit have scored at least twice in 4/4 Champions League group-stage away games (W2-D2-L0). In each of the victories, they've notched clean sheets too. A similar outcome tonight would see them beat bottom-of-Group-G Maccabi Tel Aviv by at least a couple of goals. Going back to 2009, 5/7 Porto wins have come by margins of more than a single goal.

Maccabi Tel Aviv have lost 3/3 in Group G so far, conceding eight unanswered goals - including a couple in the recent reverse fixture.
