Football Bet of the Day: Dragons to torch Tel Aviv

Porto v Maccabi Tel Aviv
Tuesday 19:45

CFR Cluj 1 Viitorul Constanta 2 in Romania last night. Joy for Gheorge Hagi and a bit of the same for us.

Porto's home form is remarkable. In their domestic Primeira Liga, Julen Lopetegui's men have won their last 14 games at Estadio Dragao, in a run stretches back to December last year. Goals scored in that time? 37. Goals conceded? None. The margin of victory was at least two goals in 10/14 and at least three in 7/14.

Since the start of last season, Porto have won 6/7 Champions League home games (including a qualifier). They scored at least twice in all six victories.

Maccabi Tel Aviv are bottom of Group G having lost their first two matches by a combined 6-0, including a 4-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge.

It's been a while since the Israelis got to this stage of the competition. Last time they were here in 2004, they lost 3/3 away games by a combined 9-1.

We fancy Porto to win with something to spare tonight.
