Champions League qualifier picks for Dinamo Tbilisi vs. Astana
Before you tune in to Wednesday's match, you need to see the Champions League qualifying round picks from SportsLine's soccer expert Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe. Sutton finished 2022 as SportsLine's top soccer expert with a 165-130-2 mark, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He also excelled in Serie A with a 63-39-1 mark, returning nearly $1,600.
For Astana vs. Dinamo Tbilisi, Sutton is picking both teams to score for a -110 payout. The expert acknowledges that Astana is heavily favored in this one thanks to their strong showing on their home turf. But he also notes that the visiting Georgians have consistantly scored on the road. Wednesday's game shouldn't be a high-scoring affair since it's the first leg of the competition, but both teams should find the back of the net.
"FC Astana have scored in 20 of their last 21 games on home soil. Meanwhile, Dinamo Tbilisi have scored in 10 consecutive away games," Sutton told SportsLine. "I expect these trends will continue on Wednesday, and it may be worth sprinkling a correct score bet for a 1-1 draw at +550." Stream the game here.
