Zenit v Porto: Anytime Goalscorer Tip
This Brazilian signed for £32m from the Portuguese club last September and carries a huge threat.
Cristiano Ronaldo may already have a remarkable seven Champions League goals to his name from three matches but one man has actually had more shots than him, both on target and off target.
Zenit St Petersburg’s Hulk has forced the goalkeeper into action 14 times and had a further seven wayward efforts; he is surely destined to add to his solitary goal against Atletico very soon. The Brazilian international looks like a bargain at best odds of 9/4 (Ladbrokes) to score anytime at home to Porto on Wednesday.
The 27-year-old signed for £32m from Porto last year and he peppered the Portuguese goal when these sides met on 22 October. Hulk had nine unsuccessful efforts but Zenit still ran out 1-0 winners on the night. Now back in Russia, he will surely have further opportunities to rub salt into the wounds of his former employers.
