The Champions League playoffs are set for second legs, and given the current circumstances, we are pretty sure that it will bring fireworks. Teams are aware of what they need to do to reach the Round of 16. The results of the first legs forced most to open their cards, making the situation far more tense.

The UCL odds are ready, and this link will lead you to them.

Real Madrid VS Benfica

This game will be more about Mourinho and Vinicius. The first is coming back to Bernabeu, while the second wants revenge for alleged racial abuse in the first meeting.

Real is the favorite, though we should note that Los Blancos failed at Osasuna this weekend, losing 2-1. This gives hope for Benfica, who want a sensation and a win in Spain. Our pick here would still be Real to win, because of the home-field edge, and the fact that Benfica isn’t that confident on the road.

Pick: Real

Bayer Leverkusen VS Olympiacos

The Greeks were too hyped ahead of the first leg that they burned in their own desire to beat Bayer. In the end, the Germans posted a routine 0-2 win, which saw them open the door to the next stage.

We believe that the team from Leverkusen won’t have too many problems in this event as well, with them posting solid results at home, compared to those on the road. That’s why we pick the hosts to triumph.

Pick: Bayer

Inter VS Bodo

Inter has nothing to wait for as they trail 1-3 after the opening 90 minutes. Bodo isn’t in some competitive rhythm, but the Norwegian team looks pretty fresh and stable. However, we have to bet on Inter triumphing in this event, because of the home-field advantage, their history, and reputation.

Pick: Inter

Newcastle VS Qarabag

This matchup is solved after Newcastle’s 6-1 triumph in the opening game. The Magpies will have reserves playing this one, and that will certainly be enough for them to post a comfortable triumph.

Pick: Newcastle -1.5

Atalanta VS Dortmund

La Dea is two goals behind and wants to reach that deficit and make another big-time sensation. Though Dortmund is a good team, that won’t be easy. Truth to say, the Millionaires have solid transition and counter-attacks, and that’s one of the reasons why we pick both teams to score in this event.

Pick: Both teams to score

Juventus VS Galatasaray

It was 5-2 for the Turks in the opening match, and that’s something which we hadn’t expected. Juve has nothing to wait for now, and has to go out and push hard; therefore, this game should be perfect for high scoring, meaning that the fans should see three or more goals.

Pick: Over 2.5 goals

PSG VS Monaco

Everything was evident in the opening game once Monaco squandered a two-goal lead to lose 2-3 at home.

We are more than positive that the Saints are going to routinely defeat the rival from Monte Carlo and post a confident win.

Pick: PSG -1.5

Atletico Madrid VS Club Brugge

The Belgian team is very underestimated, despite all of their good results in the past few years. They are very gifted on both ends of the field, and have no pressure ahead of the clash in Madrid. Atletico is in solid shape, especially offensively, while the defense struggles a bit. This game is between two pretty much equal rivals and our pick for it would be both teams to score.

Pick: Both teams to score
