The blockbuster games just keep on coming in the UEFA Champions League and two more titans collide tonight as Arsenal take on Bayern Munich in Germany.
The Bundesliga giants are unbeaten in 10 matches this term while the English champions have racked up 10 wins across their 11 outings in all competitions.
Both sides will have aspirations of ruling Europe this season and tonight's clash will give us an early indication of which team is in better shape.
Bayern Munich vs Arsenal top betting tips
Arsenal didn't lose a single game in the Champions League last season before coming unstuck in a penalty shoot-out against PSG in the showpiece.
You have to go back to November 2024 for the last time anyone other than the European champions beat them in a Champions League match.
So I'd be wary of backing Bayern Munich at a price of just 21/20, especially with Michael Olise suspended and Jamal Musiala set to miss out with injury.
A rock-solid defence has been the reason for Arsenal's superb recent record in Europe and the Gunners will need to be at their best to keep out Harry Kane and Co.
But I've a feeling they will still be a tough nut to crack so I'm backing most goals to come after the break at evens with Bet365.
The midfield battle should be intense and backing Martin Odegaard and Aleksandar Pavlovic each to be fouled over 0.5 times pays a decent 21/20 at Bet365.
Como vs Manchester United
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick remains in the eye of a storm as he takes his side to Como for their latest Champions League test tonight.
The Red Devils have won just two games in all competitions all season after letting a lead slip in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Leeds at Elland Road.
They lost 2-0 away to Atletico Madrid in their last Champions League outing and now have to face a Como side who crushed Leipzig 4-1 at home on matchday one.
Carrick will take heart from an improved performance at the weekend but the Red Devils are still 2/1 outsiders in Italy, with Como the 6/5 favourites.
BTTS has landed in seven of Como's nine matches so far this season and that suggests we should see goals at both ends tonight.
Combining BTTS and over 2.5 goals only pays 4/5 at Bet365 so I'm going for over 1.5 first-half strikes instead at 5/4.
Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes has failed to hit the heights of last season but he's always a threat and could be worth a punt to score or assist at 20/21 with Bet365.
Aston Villa vs Viking
Norwegian minnows Viking shocked Bayern Munich last week by claiming a thrilling 3-3 draw at home and will now be out to spring another surprise when they visit Villa Park.
But Unai Emery's men are starting to find form after a shaky start to the season and the bookies are backing Aston Villa to follow up their rousing 6-0 win over Fenerbahce.
Villa were ruthless against the Turks last week and if they put in a similar performance it's hard to see Viking keeping them at bay.
The home win pays just 2/9 for this one so it's tricky finding value but I like the 5/4 on offer at Bet365 for Aston Villa to win both halves.
It could be a long night for the Viking defenders and backing the Norwegians for over 2.5 cards may also pay off at 6/5.

Thoughts on Bayern v Arsenal anyone ?
I did fancy a decent stake on Bayern to win but no olise for Bayern is putting me off a touch ?
I also fancy Bayern for what its worth mate even without Olise. Arsenal dont tend to score alot away from home. If you take out their 4-2 EFL cup win (teams usually rotate for that competition) in their last 5 games away from home they have only managed 5 goals but I have been wrong many many times before 😂
Gave it the kiss of death 👎
Time for carrick to go unfortunately , although pep couldn’t do anything with this shower of s**t
