The battle for Europe is back on and there’s a Spanish feel to it all with three La Liga teams still in the competition.
Bayern Munich take on Real Madrid in the tie of the round, and the Germans will be desperate to get one over on their Spanish rivals.
It’s the Champions League at its best.
Bayern are sandwiched between two Spanish giants on betting websites, with Barcelona the outright favourites…just. And betting tips agree the most likely home for the trophy come May is Spain.
Bayern Munchen vs Real Madrid (April 13, 02:45 GMT+8)
Bayern were last champions in 2013 and that will annoy the Germans. They would dearly love to put one over on current champions Real Madrid, but it’s hard to pick a winner from this game. The hosts have won seven of the last eight, having hammered Borussia Dortmund at the weekend. Robert Lewandowski was on target twice and will be itching to add to his seven tournament goals.
I think it will be tight and my first 🌟🌟 bet is Los Blancos to win with a +0.75 start at 1.94.
Juventus vs Barcelona (April 12, 02:45 GMT+8)
If Bayern are getting restless, spare a thought for Juventus. The Bianconeri last conquered Europe back in 1996 and a quarterfinal against the favourites isn’t the ideal draw. Gonzalo Higuain hit a double as Juve beat Chievo this weekend while Barca suffered a shock 2-0 defeat to lowly Malaga with Neymar sent off. Could it be good timing for Juve?
A home win, draw no bet, pays 1.85 for a 🌟🌟🌟 bet.
Atletico Madrid vs Leicester City (April 13, 02:45 GMT+8)
The third Spanish side have arguably the easiest tie of the round against the Foxes, currently mid-table in the Premier League. Atletico are in fine form, following up three wins with a great 1-1 draw away to Real Madrid, the brilliant Antoine Griezmann snatching a point.
With two confident teams playing, Over 2.5 goals at 1.93 might work for a 🌟🌟 bet.
Borussia Dortmund vs Monaco (April 12, 02:45 GMT+8)
A 4-1 thumping at the hands of Bundesliga rivals Bayern probably isn’t the best preparation for a Champions League clash, while visitors Monaco had a more comfortable weekend with a 1-0 away win at Angers.
For another 🌟🌟 bet, I’m backing Monaco to win with a + 0.75 start, paying 2.04.
