SlipsTips examines the Bet Builder market ahead of Bayern Munich’s clash with Celtic in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
Bayern Munich vs Celtic (Tuesday, 20:00)
Bayern Munich and Celtic will reconvene for the second leg of their Champions League play-off tie at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night.
Vincent Kompany’s side are in the driving seat for a last-16 berth after claiming a 2-1 win in Glasgow last midweek.
With Bayern Munich understandable short-priced favourites here, it's a case of having to get creative via the Bet Builder market with a view to engineering a backable price.
Bayern Munich Win
Bayern Munich still have some work to do to be sure of a place in the next round of the Champions League and they should make no mistake on home soil. The German giants have taken top honours from each of their four continental contests in front of their own supporters this season. In fact, Bayern have come out on top in 24 of their last 29 Champions League home matches, losing just once across that stretch of games.
Kompany’s side have also been a force to be reckoned with at the Allianz Arena in the Bundesliga this season, triumphing in 10 of their 11 home games, drawing the other.
While Celtic have exceeded expectations by reaching the play-off round, they have failed to triumph in any of their four away days thus far. Brendan Rodgers’ side were soundly beaten away at both Borussia Dortmund and Aston Villa, and they now face an upgrade on those respective challenges.
Harry Kane to Score or Assist
Harry Kane hit his seventh Champions League goal of the season against Celtic last week and he looks well placed to either score or assist in this week’s return match in Germany. A sizable five of Kane’s seven Champions League goals this season have arrived at the Allianz Arena, while he also set up the only goal of the game during Bayern’s 1-0 home win over Benfica.
On top of that, the England skipper has also racked up a mighty impressive 29 goal involvements across his 20 Bundesliga appearances this season. Up against a Celtic side that shipped seven goals away at Borussia Dortmund and four on the road at Aston Villa, Kane looks primed to enhance his impressive numbers here.
Harry Kane to be Fouled One or More Times
Given the aforementioned Kane’s knack for drawing fouls from the opposition, I’ll wrap up the Bet Builder with the Bayern Munich goal machine to be fouled once or more during this second leg showdown. Kane is earning his team an average of 1.12 free-kicks per-game in this season’s Champions league, including one against Celtic last Wednesday night.
What's more, the 31-year-old forward was fouled twice during Bayern Munich’s home game with PSG during the league phase of the competition, as well as six of his 10 home outings in the Bundesliga this term to date.
