Expert Betting Tips

Sturm failed both matches in the Champions League, but they played pretty decently. If the game had been played in Lisbon, it would have been a different story. For now, we think the Portuguese are a bit overrated. We wouldn't be surprised if Sturm can gain their first points in a home match. As for the total, we can't see this game as high-scoring.
