Basel - CSKA Moscow



Basel have put themselves in the driving seat for the all-important 2nd place in the group after winning the reverse fixture in Moscow 2 weeks ago (2-0). Another win here will guarantee a place in the next round of the Champions League (CL).

Basel are a somewhat more experienced side in the CL of the two, with 111 games in the competition (W45, D25, L41) while CSKA have played 95 (W30, D23, L42). Basel enjoy a stronger win ratio in the competition (40.54% vs 31.58%).

CSKA, on the other hand, have a major European trophy to their name, lifting the UEFA Cup in 2005.

20-year old striker Dimitri Oberlin has been the standout player for Basel so far in the CL, netting 3 times in as many matches, including 1 against CSKA. Only 4 players in the tournament have more goals (Cavani, Ben Yedder, Ronaldo, Kane).

Basel have gone 4 consecutive matches without a draw. 1/2 - 1.30

CSKA Moscow have gone 8 consecutive matches without a draw. 1/2 - 1.30
