Bayern Munich vs Inter
Bayern Munich would have fancied their chances heading into the first leg at their home ground, but a number of injuries to key players means they are significantly weakened heading into this clash.
The likes of Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano, Jamal Musiala, Kingsley Coman and Manuel Neuer will all miss out through injury, while Inter have very few first-team players ruled out for the encounter.
While stars such as Harry Kane and Michael Olise will certainly still cause Inter problems, the loss of several key starters certainly gives Inter the upper hand heading into this evening’s first leg match.
The visitors are also in superb form coming into the game, having avoided defeat in any of their last 10, and we expect that run to continue with a win here.
Inter to win, 3.80 – Book Here
While we believe Inter will secure the first-leg victory, as already mentioned, the likes of Kane, Olise and several others certainly have the level of talent to cause plenty of harm to the Italian side.
Kane is having yet another spectacular goalscoring season, boasting 34 goals in 39 appearances across all competitions, including goals in all of his last four outing for club and country, and he is good value to continue that run.

Arsenal vs Real Madrid
Arsenal and Real Madrid clash in one of the most anticipated Champions League quarter-final match-ups, with the Gunners aiming to progress past the current holders.
While Arsenal will be boosted by their home advantage in the first leg, needing to capitalise on that to give them the lead heading into the away leg, the Gunners have suffered several underwhelming results in recent weeks.

The Gunners have managed only four wins in their last 10 outings, with four draws and two defeats, and injuries to key players mean they are weakened heading into this clash – with Gabriel the standout missing star.
As for Real Madrid, Los Blancos may have fallen to defeat to Valencia last time out, but the visitors are undeniably the strongest force in the history of this competition – boasting a remarkable 15 Champions League titles.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side seem to secure wins even when at far from their best in this competition, and while we expect Arsenal to prove tough opposition, Madrid’s love-affair with this tournament should continue with a first-leg win.
Real Madrid to win, 3.45 – Book Here
After a slow start in Madrid, Kylian Mbappe has shown signs of being back to his best in recent weeks and months, with the striker getting more involved in the overall play and causing much more threat to opposition defenders.
The forward now has 33 goals in 47 appearances for Real Madrid, and with Gabriel missing in defence for Arsenal, we believe the striker will be able to target that weakness and ultimately get on the scoresheet.
Kylian Mbappe to score anytime, 2.80 – Book Here
