Italian Serie A picks for Qarabag vs. Plzen
Before you tune in to Tuesday's match, you need to see the UEFA Champions League picks from soccer insider Jon Eimer. Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge of leagues and players across the globe. Since joining SportsLine, Eimer has covered the English Premier League, Serie A, the FA Cup and much more. He is 204-187-7 on his SportsLine picks in 2022, which includes a run of 51-34-1 on his last 86 picks (59.3 percent) for a profit of more than $900 for $100 bettors.
For Plzen vs. Qarabag, Eimer is picking the match to finish over the 2.5-goal total at a +110 payout. The first leg between the two sides wasn't a complete indicator of what's to come on Tuesday. Both could afford to leave the first match with a draw knowing that another would be played. Now the stakes are different, as this match serves as a win-and-you're-in scenario, with neither team wanting to have their future come down to an extra time goal or penalty shootout.
Qarabag established that it is going to bring waves of players in its attack and should look for an early strike to take the crowd out of the match. Plzen will be without one of its starting defenders, Lukas Hejda (suspension), so it comes in vulnerable in the back. Viktoria forward Jan Kliment scored in four of his first five appearances across all competitions, but only played 20 minutes in the reverse fixture against Qarabag. Fellow forward Tomas Chory has three goals, two of which have come in UCL qualifying matches, to start the season, so scoring potential is there for both clubs on Tuesday.
"Plzen is another one of those sides that tends to show better at home than on the road," Eimer told SportsLIne. "Plzen has had goals in 14 of its last 15 matches when playing at Doosan Arena." Stream the match now here.
