UEFA Champions League Predictions & Betting Tips 26/11/2024

09 Feb, 13:35

Manchester City will do unspeakable things to Feyenoord when they host the Dutchmen in Manchester on matchday 5 of the UEFA Champions League. Pep Guardiola’s men were humbled by Sporting in the last round. Losing 4-1 to Sporting CP in Portugal should be enough reason for the Citizens to tear Feyenoord to shreds in England.

Meanwhile, Sporting CP will dare to repeat the same success against another English team when they host Arsenal. However, this time could be different because the club’s manager, Ruben Amorim, who thrashed Manchester City, has left the club to join Manchester United. This week’s UEFA Champions League matchday 5 predictions are based on current form, data, and expert knowledge.

Our UEFA Champions League Matchday 5 Predictions

Manchester City to put Sporting’s defeat behind them: Manchester City vs Feyenoord

  • Date: 26/11/2024
  • Kick-off: 21:00
  • Feyenoord may have won two of their last four UCL matches, but attempting to get a win or draw against wounded Manchester City looks like a stretch.

Manchester City were trounced 4-1 by Sporting as visitors; now they will host Feyenoord in Manchester. The Dutchmen may have won twice, but we don’t see any way City would miss out on all three points at the Etihad Stadium. Pep’s men won their last two home UCL games.

Man City vs Feyenoord prediction: Home team to win

Bayern Munich to add to PSG’s agony: Bayern Munich vs PSG

  • Date: 26/11/2024
  • Kick-off: 21:00
  • PSG are winless in their last three UCL matches, and they are unlikely to turn their poor form around against Bayern Munich in Germany.

Bayern Munich brought their losing run of two Champions League matches to a halt when they beat Benfica 1-0 in Germany, and they will only think about building on their momentum. The Bavarians are the favourites to win the game against PSG, and their current form suggests they can, as the French outfits failed to win in their last three UCL games. 

Bayern Munich vs PSG prediction: Home team to win

Barcelona to hand Brest their first UCL defeat: Barcelona vs Brest

  • Date: 26/11/2024
  • Kick-off: 21:00
  • Brest may have avoided defeats in four UCL matches, but they may finally run out of luck in Barcelona.

Barcelona started their Champions League campaign with a loss at Monaco, but they haven’t looked back since then, winning their next three matches, including a 4-1 win against Bayern Munich. Brest won three and drew one of their last four UCL matches, but they are likely to experience their first defeat in Spain, as there’s a huge difference in squad and experience. A

Sporting CP and Arsenal to exchange goals: Sporting CP vs Arsenal

  • Date: 26/11/2024
  • Kick-off: 21:00
  • Arsenal experienced their first UCL loss last time and may be in for another defeat to Sporting CP.

Sporting CP thrashed the champions of England, Manchester City, 4-1 in the last round, and it is normal for them to dare to repeat the same feat against Arsenal, although they will be under the guardian of a new manager. This change has cast some doubts about Sporting, as the new manager would love to implement his style of play. However, Sporting scoring at least a goal in front of their fans shouldn’t be a stretch, and Arsenal have some brilliant individuals who can get the ball into the hosts’ goal net.

Sporting CP vs Arsenal prediction: Both teams to score—yes

Inter Milan to extend their winning ways: Inter Milan vs RB Leipzig

  • Date: 26/11/2024
  • Kick-off: 21:00
  • RB Leipzig lost their opening four UCL matches and are unlikely to change their form against Inter Milan.

Inter Milan are one of the best-performing teams in the Champions League this season, having won three and drawn one of their opening four games. RB Leipzig lost all four games, including last round’s embarrassing defeat to Celtic in Scotland. Inter are a powerhouse in Italy, and there’s no chance for the Germans to salvage a draw.

Inter Milan vs RB Leipzig prediction: Home team to win

AC Milan to maintain their momentum: Slovan Bratislava vs AC Milan

  • Date: 26/11/2024
  • Kick-off: 18:45
  • Having won against Real Madrid in Spain, AC Milan would only consider extending their winning run in Europe against Slovan Bratislava.

Slovan Bratislava sit at the bottom of the Champions League standings with four defeats in four games. Their biggest undoing this term is their blunt attack and shambolic backline, having only scored two goals and conceded 15 goals. AC Milan head into this game coming off a big win over Real Madrid, and it is relatively understandable to back them to maintain their momentum. 

Slovan Bratislava vs AC Milan prediction: Away team to win
