Tipster’s Angel

This is expected to be a low-scoring encounter similar to the first leg. By considering the recent form, Chelsea have an edge over Porto and they are playing at home as well. Porto has to stage a big turnaround to turn tables in their favor.

Tip: Chelsea To Win @ 1.83

In the last ten head to head matches, Chelsea has won six, Porto has won three and the other match ended in a stalemate. Chelsea has hosted four of the head to head matches and have won all four matches. But Chelsea’s home record is inevitable here as they are playing at a neutral venue. In the last ten matches that Chelsea has played across competitions, they have won seven, lost one and drew two matches. Porto on the other hand, have won six, lost three and drawn just one match in their last ten matches that they have played across all competitions. In the last three Champions League matches, Porto has just one win under their belt and they have lost two matches. Apart from that, Chelsea is unbeaten in the Champions League so far. So it is very likely that Chelsea will emerge victorious at the end at 1.83 odds available at the Dafabet sportsbook.

Tip: Total Goals Under 2.5 @ 1.85

A low goal count was always the feature when these two teams played, which was evident in the first leg of this fixture as only two goals were scored in it. In the last seven head to head matches, under 2.5 goals were scored in five of those matches. Even under 2.5 goals were scored in the last head to head match where Chelsea played as the hosts. In the last ten matches that Chelsea had played across all competitions, under 2.5 goals were scored in as many as eight matches. In the Champions League, Chelsea has seen under 2.5 goals in four of their last five matches. In the last nine matches that Porto had played across all competitions, under 2.5 goals were scored in five matches. Under 2.5 goals were scored in two of the last four matches that Porto has played in the Champions League. So, it is very likely that this will be a low scoring encounter that under 2.5 goals will be scored at 1.85 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Conclusion

It is looking like Chelsea will make it all the way through to the Champions League semi finals until and unless there is a dramatic turnaround from Porto. The winner of this match is more likely to face the mighty Real Madrid in the semifinals as they are leading their tie against Liverpool.
