The Champions League will reach the halfway point of the group stage. In this context, the so-called ‘group of death’ brings two great matches, as Newcastle will host Borussia Dortmund and Milan will visit Paris Saint-Germain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Magpies are the group leaders and are full of confidence after beating the French in the last game, while their rival is at the bottom of the group. The ‘Rossoneri’ have been shy when it comes to scoring and that is why they need to triumph on French soil against Kylian Mbapp\u00e9’s team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For their part, Real Madrid will have to visit Sporting Braga of Portugal, to look for a perfect score in the first three games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Barcelona also has full points and will now host Shakhtar of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This weekend they drew 1-1 with Sevilla and cut a 4-game winning streak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Braga took advantage of Union Berlin in the last game and got the three points<\/strong>. However, they have been a team with a weak defense, conceding four goals in two games. They have 5 wins in their last 5 matches, scoring 15 goals. The Lusitanians have never faced the ‘Merengues’ in their history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Saturday, October 21, 12:45 pm ET at the Camp Nou<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Moneyline odds: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Barcelona +590 <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Shakhtar +1800<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Draw Offs<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n +750<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Where Can I Watch?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n TUDN<\/a>, Star+<\/a>, ViX<\/a>, and Paramount+<\/a><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Barcelona has had many injury problems this season, but Robert Lewandowski is likely to be fit to face the Ukrainians. The \u2018Cul\u00e9s\u2019 occupy first place in their group, with six points, six goals scored, and none conceded. At home, they have a perfect season with 5 games and 5 wins, just conceding two goals to Celta.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Shakhtar started with a tough setback against Porto but recovered by visiting Antwerp.<\/strong> However, the Ukrainian team had a last bad experience visiting the Catalans, as in 2011 they were beaten 5-1. Yaroslav Rakitskyi, still on the team, scored Shakhtar\u2019s goal (he also scored in their recent visit to Belgium). Venezuelan Kevin Kelsy scored two goals in the last match (3-0 win over LNZ Cherkasy) and hopes to get some minutes, as he played and scored against Porto, but was on the bench versus Royal Antwerp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wednesday, October 24, 3:00 pm ET at St. James’ Park<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Moneyline odds:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Newcastle -120 <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dortmund +360<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Draw Offs<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n +285<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Where Can I Watch?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n TUDN<\/a>, Star+<\/a>, ViX<\/a>, and Paramount+<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n A great match at St. James Park, where Newcastle already showed their power by beating PSG 4-1. The rapport with the fans usually shocks opponents, and it is important to note that the Magpies have only conceded one goal after visiting Milan and hosting the Parisian side.\u00a0They have an 8-game unbeaten streak with 6 wins.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dortmund has had a bad start to the European tournament, as they have only one point and, most worryingly, they have not scored a single goal.<\/strong> Currently, they are at the bottom of the group, and their only away game was a defeat in France.\u00a0They have 4 wins and 1 draw (versus Milan) in their last 5 matches.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nBraga vs. Real Madrid<\/strong> Betting Pick: Real Madrid<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
