Kylian Mbappe to score for Real Madrid vs Arsenal @ 3.00
Real Madrid arrive at the Emirates in a wounded state following a shock 2-1 loss to Valencia at the Bernabeu last Saturday. The result was a huge blow to their title hopes, placing more emphasis on a tricky match against the Gunners. However, Los Blancos always seem to deliver on the European stage. And with Arsenal missing key defender Gabriel Magalhaes through injury, the visitors’ main man Mbappe can silence the home fans. He has 32 goals in 46 matches across all competitions this season.
Bayern Munich vs Inter Milan: Draw @ 3.50
With injuries mounting, this is looking like an even more difficult tie for Bayern. Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies are out for prolonged spells with different issues, while Kingsley Coman and Dayot Upamecano are also condemned to the treatment table. So Inter should feel confident of picking up a positive result in Bavaria, although last Saturday’s 2-2 draw at Parma was a welcome reminder of the Serie A side’s small inefficiencies. As such, we are predicting a draw when these two giants collide at the Allianz Arena.
Ousmane Dembele to score for Paris Saint-Germain vs Aston Villa @ 2.05
Villa are on a run of seven consecutive wins across all competitions following last Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest. But PSG will not be fazed by that level of form whatsoever, particularly after securing the Ligue 1 title on the weekend. Luis Enrique’s side are yet to lose in the top flight this season and boast arguably the world’s most in-form player, Dembele. The Frenchman has seven goals in this season’s Champions League and although Villa have tallied four clean sheets in the last six, we cannot see them keeping out Ligue 1’s leading scorer at the Parc des Princes.
Barcelona to score over 3.5 goals vs Borussia Dortmund @ 3.40
Hansi Flick’s Barca had a slight wobble at home on the weekend, drawing 1-1 with Real Betis. In contrast, Dortmund claimed a superb 4-1 win at Freiburg, which followed an impressive 3-1 home victory over Mainz. Nevertheless, we are still predicting the La Liga side to turn on the style in Catalonia for the first leg. Barca are averaging 2.77 goals scored per match in La Liga and 3.20 per game in the Champions League. Lest we forget, the Blaugrana beat Bundesliga leaders Bayern 4-1 in the League Phase, a match in which Raphinha netted a hat-trick. So good luck, Dortmund…
