Matchday 3 of the UEFA Champions League got off to a great start on Tuesday, as we saw a ton of goals scored and the overall league begin to take shape. Of course, we are only halfway through the games being played this week, as we have another batch coming our way on Wednesday. Those are the games that we are going to look at here. We have picked out 5 games and will give what we believe to be the best bet for each one.
Bayern Munich Vs Club Brugge
This does appear to be something of a mismatch, as I expect Bayern to run riot at home against inferior opposition. Munich has been deadly in the opening 2 games of league play, winning both and outscoring the opposition 8-2 in the process. Brugge were convincing winners in their opening game, but they followed that up with a disappointing 2-1 loss to Atalanta. I imagine they are going to have their backs to the wall all game her, so I like Bayern -2 ½.
Bayern Munich 4 Vs 1 Club Brugge
Chelsea Vs Ajax
Ajax are an iconic club, but they are simply not at the level required to really compete for this trophy. Through their opening 2 games, they have failed to register a single goal, while surrendering 6 to the opposition. Chelsea is always a tough out in their own building, and that should be the case again today. They lost to Bayern Munich in Matchday 1, and then scraped a 1-0 win over Benfica last time out. I think this will be more comfortable, so I am taking Chelsea -1 ½.

Eintracht Frankfurt Vs Liverpool
If you are looking for a game with a ton of goals, then this might very well be the one to watch. The English champions are going through a rough patch and come into this one on a 4-game losing skid. Their defense looks weak, but they are often of the we can score more mentality. It is much the same story for Frankfurt, who have seen a combined 12 goals in their 2 games in this tournament. Goals galore here, and I am on the OVER 3 ½.
Eintracht Frankfurt 2 Vs 3 Liverpool
Monaco Vs Tottenham
It was a back door entry into this tournament for Tottenham, who got in by winning the Europa League. Their new manager is still building his team, so the consistency is not quite there yet for Spurs, but they are still going to be a tough nut to crack. Monaco is coming off a very respectable 2-2 draw with Manchester City, but with just 1 point from their opening 2 games, they need a win. Not sure they will get it here, as this looks like a stalemate game to me. I would take a shot at playing the draw.
Monaco 1 Vs 1 Tottenham
Real Madrid Vs Juventus
While this is still a very big game, it is not what it was a few years ago. Juventus are a bit of a shadow of their former selves, and they have opened this tournament with back-to-back draws. They are going to try and keep things tight here in hopes of escaping with some reward. This could prove to be a challenging game for Madrid, but if they can stay patient, they have the attacking threat required to break down what is sure to be a stubborn Juventus defense. Madrid -1 ½ or the UNDER 3 ½ look good to me.
