Champions league third round qualifying tonight

3: Olympiakos v Hapoel Beer Sheva (Over 2.5 goals) @ 1.70 (7/10)
To Europe's elite club competition now for our final two selections and I think we could be in for a few goals when Olympiakos take on Hapoel Beer Sheva.

The Greeks are an experienced side at this level and they should cruise through this tie. I expect them to put the Israelites to the sword and rack up a few goals in the process.

Olympiakos are typically big scorers in front of their own fans and they have played a number of recent friendlies to get back into the groove ahead of the new campaign.

I wouldn't rule out Hapoel Beer Sheva from netting themselves though as they are used to winning and therefore have that winning mentality.

Obviously nearly all of those matches were played at a lower level than this, but their first leg in the last round saw the ball in the net five times as they won 3-2, so it's not like they adopt a defensive strategy early on.

Bet 4: Fenerbahce v Monaco (Under 2.5 goals) @ 1.53 (8/15)

To a slightly more glamorous Champions League fixture now as Turkey take on France in the shape of Fenerbahce against Monaco.

Neither of these two clubs will have wanted to draw each other at this stage of the competition but unfortunately for them they have done and they now need to be on the top of their game to have a chance of progressing through to the final qualifying round.

I expect a lengthy feeling out process early on with Monaco being very cautious given the fact that they are away from home and have a few injuries to contend with.

Fenerbahce have strengthened their defence over the summer with the likes of Martin Skrtel signed from Liverpool for instance, so I wouldn't be overly concerned with them in that respect.

Keeping a clean sheet will be important for them as they won't want Monaco grabbing a potentially crucial away goal, so if they do go 1-0 up, I wouldn't imagine that they will be gung-ho in trying to kill off the tie.
