Manchester United v FC Basel Traders Tips Visit Betfair Save For Later Posted by Bettingpro Staff 27 Sep 2011 Tweet Antonio Valencia will be in action for a makeshift Man United side tonight (credit: Wikipedia) Related Articles See all Champions League news Share it Pin It Manchester United may be missing several players but they can still beat FC Basel at Old Trafford this evening.Match OddsThere is no reason to oppose Manchester United, who have a formidable home record. Sir Alex Ferguson's side have lost just one of their last 32 Champions League home fixtures and been generally dominant in domestic competition for years at Old Trafford.United have failed to win six of their last 15 home group games in the tournament, but that's not enough to persuade me to lay the hosts at 1.23 on betfair.Over / Under 3.5 GoalsIn their very best rampant home form there's always a chance of United putting three or four past weaker European visitors, as we've seen so many times down the years. Ferguson will send out his players with clear instructions to get the job done as well as possible after United dropped points against Benfica (1-1) in their opening game. If United want to make a statement, they could run up a comfortable winning scoreline.Over 3.5 Goals is available at 2.28, with unders 1.73. Were Wayne Rooney available, I'd take the odds-against price on overs. As he's unavailable, I'd leave this market alone.Half-time / Full-timeMy feeling is Ferguson will want his players to get the job done as swiftly as possible, so I expect a strong United performance in the first-half. Given that likely scenario, I'd be very surprised if they don't go in with a half-time lead, making the Man Utd-Man Utd option on the HT/FT market a worthwhile pick at 1.66.For those bettors looking for a bigger price, United to win both halves is 2.0. For this bet to turn a profit, you need United to separately win both 45 minutes of football.
