Live Text : Wednesday's Football - The Build Up

19-44 : Time to end the talking, let's get onto the action! We've move onto the first half action post, so please do join us on there!

19-43 : City to be winning after 15 minutes? Whack a tenner on that and you've won 50 quid, tidy profit if you ask me.

19-41 : A few other tips flying around across Twitter, and ours would Lille to spring a surprise against Inter at the San Siro. 3.35 to draw, almost 5/1 to win it. The average age of that Inter team? Almost 32, a record. Experienced, or too old to compete with a fresh younger side?

19-39 : Rooney in a midfield role tonight, a big call from Ferguson, clearly feeling he has the talent to dominate the perceived weak opposition. Almost 5 minutes till kick off.

19-36 : Chris Leavy gets in early on the Tweet, saying how he'd 'love to see United open and and play like we did at the start of the season', going on the state that it could be 6 or 7 if they do. He's not wrong, Galati 65/1 to win this one.

19-34 : Teams news floating in now, Owen starting for United alongside Berbatov and Rooney, Ferdinand another notable starter. Man City, with all their riches and abundance of talent, opt for Balotelli in attack on his own, Milner, Nasri, Silva and Yaya Toure will be expected to provide the support from deep, with De Jong holding.

19-31 : Of course, it's not just those two games tonight. There's a host of other sides involved in Europe, how about Lyon hosting Madrid. The French are 6.4 to win that one. Benfica and Basel face off, Ajax and Inter playing in their respective groups, it's all happening. Championship football tonight sees Derby against Cardiff, and Leeds vs Blackpool. We'll fill you in on all the goals as they go in across all the games, not to mention the updates, odds checks and your views.

19-30 : Remember to get involved tonight! Usual stuff, either straight to @TacticalBet on Twitter, or through an appropriate tag, such as Champions League, or football.

19-28 : What of City then? They're in Spain to meet Villarreal, another side struggling in this competition. Mancini's men haven't exactly fired on all cylinders in this format. but still are favourites at 1.78. The draw, if you're interested, is 3.8

19-24 : Attention on United first, the Manchester side at home tonight. Old Trafford will be praying for a better performance than the last home tie, a 1-6 drubbing against... You know the rest. Their opponents? Romanian minnows Otelul Galati, yet to earn even a single point in this seasons campaign. So, surely a home banker if I've ever seen one. But stranger things have happened, remember Burton Albion drawing here in 2006? United 1.1 to win it, staggeringly high favourites.

19-20 : Last night our two London teams failed to step up to the plate, so can tonight's Manchester duo fly the flag in Europe? There's plenty of action to follow tonight in the Champions League, and not to forget two more games in the Championship. So do get involved, and with TacticalBet you know you'll be up to date with everything that occurs, as it happens.
