Fifa Club World Cup Groups A and C conclude on Tuesday, it's still all to play for in Group A whilst in Group C it's a case of who will join Bayern Munich in the knockout rounds
.
Prices are correct at the time of publication but subject to change. Kick off times vary and are listed on your bookmakers coupon.
Group A sees Palmeiras and Inter Miami on 4 points with Palmerias top on goal difference. FC Porto and Al Ahly both have just a single point to their name and their fate is no longer in their own hands.
At 03:00 FC Porto take on Al Ahly and Inter Miami's clash with Palmerias shares the same kick off time. A draw would see Inter Miami and Palmeiras both go through regardless of the result in the other match. With that in mind a draw bet will no doubt be a popular choice but whoever finishes as runners up in this quartet could well come up against Bayern in the first knockout round and that could be a fate worth avoiding.
Betting:
Inter Miami 4/1 Draw 1.45/1 Palmeiras 5/4
FC Porto 8/11 Draw 3/1 Al Ahly 34/10
Preference is for the Porto game and Samu Aghehowa (also listed as Samuel Omorodian with some bookmakers) found the net for us last time out and I will nibble at his price boost to open the scoring here.
Bets: Porto v Al Ahly, 1st Goalscorer Samu Omorodian now 9/2 with Sportingbet
Group C is topped by Bayern Munich who have the maximum of 6 points, they are already assured of their place in the knockout rounds and need to avoid defeat in their final group match against Benfica to be sure top spot. Boca Juniors are third in the standings with 1 point and they need a handsome win against Auckland City who have been out of their depth, losing both matches, conceding 16 goals in the process and failing to score themselves.
The Betting
Auckland 60/1 Draw 28/1 Boca 0.005/1
Benfica 33/10 Draw 22/10 Bayern 19/20
These games kick off at 21:00 and one would expect Boca Juniors to put the New Zealanders away with some ease, especially as their goal difference is -1 and Benfica's is +6 but I will leave that game alone.
A landslide win for Boca would put Benfica under pressure although a draw would suit the Lisbon side as well as Bayern so it's a bit of a conundrum. Bayern may rotate and I fancy Benfica to score at some stage, Angel Di Maria has been deadly from the penalty spot and he gets the vote to register any time.
Bet: Benfica v Bayern Munich, Anytime goalscorer Di Maria at 4/1 with Sportingbet
