We're all square heading to the Nou Camp with Barca 4/7 to win the game in 90 minutes and 2/7 to progress, as they've done in the last 11 knockout ties when drawing the first leg away. Newcastle are big 4/1 underdogs for the game but they won at Chelsea at the weekend and have a squad more than capable of running the hosts close - this is not the all-powerful Barca of days gone by.
Hansi Flick's side are a serious threat at home, scoring in 16 straight Champions League home games, and in 28 of 29 in the competition, but they've also conceded in the last 12 in a row so Eddie Howe knows they'll get chances, especially with the pace on the break they can deploy. Both teams to score is 2/5 as a result.
Barca should win but are short enough and stranger things have happened. What shouldn't be strange though is Joelinton giving away three fouls and Lamine Yamal being fouled 3+ times as happened last week - Barca being at home makes that even more likely. And with the Betfair Bet £10 Get £10 offer still going on Bet Builders of three legs or more, we'll add the legs of Anthony Gordon to help him hit the target.

That was mightly impressive from Bayern last week and I'm not sure the 200/1 on Atalanta to turn things around is a big enough price for the size of the miracle they'd have to pull off. The big question is whether Vincent Kompany makes changes and Bayern coast it or take it a bit more seriously and go out and win the game again.
Kompany will likely start a strong team and disciplinary matters have made some decisions for him. Nicolas Jackson and Luis Diaz were sent off at the weekend so with domestic suspensions coming up they might as well play here, while Michael Olise is suspended opening the door for impressive 18-year-old Lennart Karl to make a sixth Champions League start this season.
Karl has averaged just under two shots on target per 90 minutes played in the Champions League this season while Diaz has had six in his three UCL home games so far, and with an already beaten opponent to face they could fill their boots here.

This could be make or break for Arne Slot after yet another lumbering performance against Spurs at the weekend - if he can't get his side to wake up and put in a performance on a big European night under the lights at Anfield then he never will. There's no away fans and no excuses for the Reds as 4/11 favourites to overturn the one-goal lead Galatasaray bring with them from Istanbul.
They put Juventus out in the last round though and having their fans banned will create a siege mentality for the visitors who have something to hold on to, and they don't even have to win the game to land the 21/10 on them sending Liverpool, and possibly Slot, packing. From what we've seen recently from Liverpool the visitors look a great price.
If Liverpool are to get through then their one stand-out player this season Dominik Szoboszlai will need a stand-out performance. Slot needs to play him in midfield and just let him go run the game - he looked devastated and angry after Sunday's Spurs draw and that should lead into an all-energy display here that we can take advantage of in a shots and fouls double.
All six of his multiple shots on target games have come at Anfield this season including a couple in the Champions League, while he's got 11 games with three combined foul involvements, the last being in Istanbul last week and with the stakes as high as they are that really shouldn't be a problem to match again here.

Finally some joy for Spurs with a point at Liverpool - and perhaps more importantly some fighting spirit finally emerging - but it won't be enough here and frankly the 14/1 on them to get through looks way, way too short. Free-scoring Atleti won't let this lead slip and I actually fancy them to win this game too at a generous 31/20.
Igor Tudor still has a host of injuries, plus Richarlison is suspended, and Sunday's huge game coming up against Nottingham Forest is far more important in the context of their season so it's a tough one for the manager - he could just see it as a free hit but he won't want his side to get heavily beaten after only just taking a crumb of confidence from Anfield.
The fans will want to see Spurs have a go and Atleti do concede plenty of goals so I'll back the hosts to score, especially if the Spaniards score a couple they could be forgiven for taking their foot off the gas later on. I wouldn't rule out a draw here but I just think Diego Simeone will want the win, and his savvy side will have too much again.
