Down to the wire
"The other key match is Liverpool at home to Olympiakos. Group A is still wide open and much will hinge on the other game between Deportivo and Monaco. The Reds need to win by two goals to be certain of qualification, so expect plenty of attacking play from the home side. Creative players will be the key to success here; ones to watch will be Gerrard, Alonso and Rivaldo. With an abundance of attacking players on display for both sides, I would expect sharp punters to bet `high' on our Total Goals market.

"It's going to be a very tough match for Liverpool; Olympiakos are hard to break down away from home. The Greeks are currently top of the group but could still go out if they lose and Monaco win. We predict Liverpool will shade this one by a margin of 0.8 to 1.1 goals. However in the other game, Monaco face a poor Deportivo side with nothing to play for. So, even with a victory at Anfield, I think the Reds could still go out of the tournament."
