The second half of Champions League group games begin this week. How will the four English clubs fare as they bid to qualify for the knockout stages?

Crucial Game for Manchester United

Manchester United head to FC Copenhagen on Wednesday November 8 needing to return with a win. They are only third in Group A and trail second placed Galatasaray (who they still have to play away) by a point.

United beat Copenhagen 1-0 in the reverse fixtures and another win is vital with two tough games to come. They can be backed at 5/6 at bet365 to get another crucial victory, though low stakes might be an idea.

There’s unlikely to be any concerns for Manchester City at home to Young Boys the previous night. All three of their games in Group G have been won, including a 3-1 win in Switzerland. Even the possible absence of Erling Haaland shouldn’t prevent City getting a comprehensive victory and qualifying for the last 16. It’s 2/5 at BetVictor that they win with over 2.5 goals in the game.

Newcastle Need to Bounce Back

It was all going well for Newcastle in Group F after earning four points from their first two games. Then came a 1-0 home loss to Borussia Dortmund taking them down to third in the table. Three games remain and two are at Dortmund and PSG.

Now could be the right time to face Dortmund after their 4-0 home loss to Bayern Munich on Saturday. Newcastle have done well to beat Manchester United and Arsenal in their last two games and are 31/20 at bet365 to get three points in Dortmund on Tuesday November 7.

Arsenal top Group B and two of their final three games are at the Emirates. They may have lost at the weekend but can get a second group win over Sevilla. Their Spanish opponents haven’t won in La Liga since September. It’s 3/4 with William Hill that they can beat Sevilla and lead at both half and full time.
