The second-leg fixtures of the UEFA Champions League and Europa League are set for this week, and we expect thrilling matches and big goals.
Here are 5 goalscorer bets for this week’s action.
Harry Kane vs Real Madrid
Real Madrid must overcome a one-goal deficit if they are to salvage what seems like another trophyless season.
However, Bayern Munich are favourites at home after last week’s 2-1 win at the Bernabéu. They followed that with a fifth successive victory when they visited St. Pauli on Sunday, extending their unbeaten run to 15 games across all competitions.
Bayern have scored at least three goals in each of their last four at home and are likely to continue that run here. Harry Kane scored his 11th Champions League goal of the season in the first leg, and he is an excellent value bet after an incredible 15 goals in his last 10 starts.
Bet: Kane to score anytime @1.85
Lamine Yamal vs Atletico Madrid
Barcelona are in a tough spot going into this huge second-leg clash against Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano.
Despite being 2-0 down, it would be foolish to write off Barcelona, who possess some of the best attackers on the planet. Hansi Flick’s side have won 10 of their last 12 games, while Atleti have suffered four defeats in their last five.
Barca will attack from the first whistle and could grab a goal or two, making Lamine Yamal our pick to score anytime. The Barcelona teenager has seven goals in his last 10 games and should be on penalty duties in the absence of Raphinha.
Bet: Yamal to score anytime @2.40 (Top Pick)
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia vs Liverpool
PSG are the slight favourites to win on Tuesday, and their first-leg performance suggests they can finish this tie off in style with a win on Merseyside.
Luis Enrique’s men controlled the game throughout last week, creating 18 shots in total with six on target, restricting Liverpool to just three attempts, none of which tested Matvey Safonov in the PSG goal.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was on target for PSG in the first leg, making it four consecutive Champions League games with a goal, hitting five goals in total across that period. The Georgian looks like a great bet for an anytime effort at Anfield.
Bet: Kvaratskhelia to score anytime @3.00
Viktor Gyokeres vs Sporting CP
Arsenal took control of their Champions League quarter-final with a 1-0 win over Sporting, but after suffering a 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth at the weekend, there is extra pressure ahead of this second leg.
However, despite the endless criticism of Arsenal’s style of play, they have been excellent in the Champions League this season, scoring 27 goals in 11 European games. They have scored at least once in every game this season and should have enough to keep that run going.
Our pick to score anytime is Viktor Gyokeres. The Gunners striker has three goals in his last five games and will be vital in this second leg.
Bet: Gyokeres to score anytime @2.25
Ollie Watkins vs Bologna
Aston Villa have a perfect home record in the Europa League this season, and after winning 3-1 against Bologna in Italy last week, they enter this second leg as strong favourites.
Ollie Watkins scored twice in that first-leg triumph last week and looks like the best option for an anytime goal on Thursday.
Watkins failed to score in his first eight Europa League appearances this season but has found his rhythm with three goals in his last three games in Europe.
Bet: Watkins to score anytime @2.50
