Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid betting tips: Champions League prediction & odds

Paris Saint-Germain await the winner of tonight’s blockbuster quarter-final second leg at the Allianz Arena with Bayern Munich the heavy favourites on betting sites to advance after a thrilling 2-1 victory over Real Madrid last week (8pm, TNT Sports 2).

Luis Diaz and Harry Kane scored either side of half-time for Bayern in Madrid, before Kylian Mbappe pulled a goal back to keep this tie in the balance ahead of the return leg.

The German side are the odds-on favourites to win the second leg and secure their spot in the Champions League semi-finals, while Real Madrid can be backed at 6/1 to reach the last four.

The odds on football betting sites might be against the Spanish giants, but they have won the last four two-legged ties between the sides, most recently securing a 4-3 aggregate victory in the 2023/24 Champions League semi-finals.

They have also won the three previous quarter-final ties in this competition back in 1987/88, 2001/02 and 2016/17.

Vincent Kompany’s side are also winless in their last four home games against Wednesday’s opponents, suffering three defeats before a 2-2 draw in their most recent meeting – the first leg of the 2023/24 Champions League semi-finals.

Before this recent run, Bayern had dominated the fixture at the Allianz Arena, with nine wins in their first 10 matches against Real.

Bayern have also won 29 of their 30 two-legged European ties after winning the first leg away from home, including 12 of 13 when that first-leg victory was by a one-goal margin, and it’s hard to see past them winning this one.

Both teams have scored in 11 of the last 13 meetings between the two sides, punters won’t get more than 2/5 on betting apps on both teams to score tonight.

Bayern have scored in all 45 games so far this season, while Real have only failed to score four times in all competitions, so we can certainly expect goals.

We put up Kane to score last week at evens, and he delivered, netting Bayern’s second goal in the 2-1 win at the Santiago Bernabeu.

He now has 11 goals in this season’s competition and 54 for the season in 46 appearances, including 21 in his last 18 games.

The England captain has also registered a goal or an assist in each of his last four Champions League appearances against Real and is just one goal away from recording his best goal tally in this competition.

He’s odds-on to score anytime tonight, but you can get 10/3 on him scoring two or more, as he has done 17 times already this season.
