FC Twente W vs Chelsea FC W Betting Tips - Over 2.5 goals
Entertainment can be expected in Eschede on Thursday with both teams entering this UCL contest in excellent recent form.
Hosts Twente turn their attention to the Champions League after a disappointing 1:1 draw against Excelsior on Saturday. Jaimy Ravensbergen´s late goal rescued a point for Joran Pot´s side, and with it extended their unbeaten run to 11 matches. Twente won nine of those fixtures.
The Eredivisie side kicked-off their UCL campaign with a fine 2:0 win in Scotland against Celtic, and while huge underdogs on Thursday, will be confident of at least being competitive against their glamorous opponents from London.
High-scoring outcomes have been frequent for the home side, with eight of their last ten matches at De Grolsch Veste seeing at least three goals scored.
Chelsea maintained their superb recent winning form with a 2:1 win against Arsenal on Saturday. Sonia Bompastor´s side have now won each of their last ten matches, with an impressive 41 goals scored in those victories.
The Blues began their UCL campaign with a fine 3:2 win against Real Madrid last week and another win is expected on Thursday. Seven of the Blues ten fixtures played this season saw at least three goals scored, and I expect a similar outcome on Thursday.
With Chelsea too short to back in the WDW market, I'm putting my faith on a minimum of three goals scored in Enschede.
FC Twente W team news
Joran Pot could be forced into at least one alteration to the Twente selection on Thursday. Leonie Vliek`s fitness is in doubt after being replaced at half-time in the 1:1 draw against Excelsior on Saturday.

Chelsea FC W team news
Sonia Bompastor could retain faith in the same XI that edged to a 2:1 win against Arsenal last weekend. Erin Cuthbert may earn a recall should the Blues opt for chances to their midfield selection.
