Just look at what he did playing alongside Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal in this tournament last year: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>13 goals (most)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9 assists (most)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>8.31 FotMob rating (best)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1+ goal or assists in 11 of 14 matches<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Bet on <strong><strong>Raphinha<\/strong><\/strong> and Barcelona<\/a><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was off to another hot start this year before getting injured, posting three goals and two assists in seven matches across all competitions for Barcelona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chelsea is a solid team, but this is expected to be a shootout. Barcelona&#8217;s 1.5-goal projected total shades to the over at -125 odds, and both teams to score carries an unplayable -295 price tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the visitors are going to find the net, it&#8217;ll likely involve the talented winger in some capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Raphinha&#8217;s 21 goal contributions last year tied Cristiano Ronaldo (2013-14) for the most in a single Champions League campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:121555\">Embed: #121555<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Bet on Tuesday&#8217;s Champions League matches<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Napoli vs. Qarabag prediction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Scott McTominay to score or assist (+110): <\/strong>McTominay helped Scotland punch its World Cup ticket on Nov. 18 by scoring the opening goal against Denmark, and he returned to club action by providing an assist in Napoli&#8217;s 3-1 win over Atalanta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The forward is on top of his game right now, and I think he can stay hot in a big mismatch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-&gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Wager on the UCL league phase at NorthStar Bets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Qarabag tops the Azerbaijan Premier League and has turned plenty of heads so far with a 2-1-1 record.
