IT'S been a good week for Manchester City so far and it could get even better if they can put one foot in the Champions League semi-finals tonight.
Standing in their way are six-time champions of Europe, Bayern Munich, now managed by former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel.
The German has already tasted success against Pep Guardiola in the competition when he guided Chelsea to a 1-0 win in the 2021 final against City.
Tuchel replaced Julian Nagelsmann just a matter of weeks ago following a run of just five wins in 10 games for the Bundesliga champions and concerns by the club's heirarchy over player development. It's not been plain sailing for Bayern since Tuchel's appointment, success over Dortmund in his first game in charge saw them re-take top spot but was followed by a shock cup defeat to SC Freiburg which was quickly avenged with a 1-0 league win to keep them top of the table.
City are still challenging on three fronts and are now favourites to win all three pieces of silverware which would make for a remarkable Treble. The Champions League trophy remains the elusive holy grail and they're just 1/2 to qualify fromt his tie which would set up a clash with either Real Madrid or Chelsea in the semis.
With Erling Haaland on board this term might never have a better chance. The striking phenomenom has scored five goals in seven matches against Bayern during his time in Germany but his Dortmund side lost each one of those seven. He's a measly 8/11 to net this evening. Double that with a City win for a 13/10 BetBuilder.
In the night's other tie Benfica are 11/10 to take a first leg lead over Inter Milan in Portugal. The Eagles topped a group that included PSG and Juventus before thumping Club Brugge 7-1 on aggregate so won't fear a visit from the Italians who are languishing in fifth in Serie A and are winless in six including a 0-0 draw at Porto in the last round.
Dundee have a huge chance to take a major step towards the Championship title if they can win at home against Raith Rovers tonight. The Dark Blues edged their way to the top of the table with a 0-0 draw at Arbroath. Tonight is their game in hand over Queen's Park and a win takes them three points clear of the Spiders. A Dundee win while scoring two or more pays 4/5.
In League Two Stirling Albion can all but secure promotion with a win at second place Dumbarton who's season has collapsed. The Sons are winless in five (D1 L4), blowing their lead at the top of the table. Meanwhile Stirling have powered their way to the top and it would be a fitting way to cement their promotion with a win at their nearest rivals at 21/20.

Italian Seria C Cup Final 2nd leg tonight
Vicenza have scored in 35 of their 43 competitive matches including in 19 of 21 home games,they have also conceded in 32 of those 43 games including 15 of 21 home outings.
Juve u23’s have scored in 37 of 43 competitive matches including a goal in 19 of 23 away days,they have also conceded in 32 of those 43 games including 18 of 23 away days.
The first leg finished 2-1 to Vicenza & the league meeting in January finished 2-1 in Juves favour,a case could be stated for Vicenza too win with both sides netting but only a draw is required for Vicenza so stick too goals
BTTS 10/11
BTTS & o2.5gls 6/4
The Danish game in the relegation round,BTTS is a bit low at 8/11 but decent for doubles & upwards
Silkeborg v Horsens
Silkeborg have conceded in 20 of 23 league games & in each of the last 14,they have conceded in 9 of 11 homes(82%)
Silkeborg have seen BTTS land in a league high 16 of 23 games(70%) with 13(57%) of those seeing at least 3 goals
Horsens have conceded in 18 of 23 & in each of the last 11
Horsens have conceded in 9 of 11 aways(82%)

Small stake
Over 4.5mgs treble @ 12/1 (bet365)
Above three games
Stromsgodset 2 and Gjelleraasen have been good to me over the years for goals but both teams have taken steps up in division so will be interesting to see how they fare. Goals tend to follow them about at home and will be following them closely this season to see if the pattern continues. Orkla score and leak goals for fun and play a Kristiansund second string that hasn’t been in any of these divisions for 5 years.
Good luck today 🤞

Chelsea Man City semi
Man City v Bayern Munich
Under 2.5 goals at 5/4 (NAP)
Absolutely no way Bayern are going to City and playing an open game, at first glance you’d think the fixture screams goals but there is to much at stake for either side to take to many risks. Bayern i’m guessing will want to take a score line to their place where they are still in the tie. Thomas Tuchel has already beaten Pep in one Champions League final when Chelsea beat City 1-0 so he does have the know how when it comes to his teams against Pep. Bayern in the last round faced PSG a team which consists of players like Messi and Mbappe a game which Bayern won 0-1 away, again another game which on paper screamed goals. Bayern also won the home leg 2-0 so two games both unders. I do think City will win on the night but i don’t think they will have it easy.
Prediction 1-0

Champion’s League Double both game @ 8PM
Man City v Bayern Munich – City win a score over 1.5 goals @ 17/20
Benfica v Inter Milan – Benfica win @ 23/20
Double 2.97/1
I just think City are on another level right now and I note that Bayern dipatched Paris 3-0 in the previous fixture but Paris haven’t been playing that great either. City will be trying to make home advantage count and get as many goals as possible but keeping the other end shut wont be easy v Bayern so that’s why ive opted for a city win and over 1.5 city goals.
Benfica are flying right now, they topped a group, and came out it undefeated which uncluded PSG and Juve. Then they dismantled Club Brugge 7-1 on aggregate. They are up against a Milan side who are struggling for form with 1 win in their last 8. Milan dont concede much so it wouldn’t suprize me to see a 2-0 home win here but im playing it safe and going for the win instead.
Fingers crossed 🤞
Man City v Bayern Munich – City win a score over 1.5 goals @ 17/20 ✅
Benfica v Inter Milan – Benfica win @ 23/20 ❌
A comfortable 3-0 win for city who created 4 big chances in the game, the same number as Benfica (sofascore app) who couldn’t convert any, so went down 2-0. Need to take your chances at this level as they dont come as often.

Terminado rayon 1 marina 1 en mexico. Ganó NAP, gol corto en la apuesta lateral.
Me pregunto si Harry Kane se arrepiente de no unirse a Man City cuando tuvo la oportunidad, habría tenido trofeos asegurados en ese equipo. Decir que haaland es un bicho raro de la naturaleza, 45 goles y contando…..
