Harry Kane, the renowned striker for Bayern Munich, continues to impress fans with his remarkable goal-scoring ability. As the team edges closer to reclaiming their Bundesliga title, it is not far-fetched to believe that they may also dominate in the Champions League.
Despite facing criticism for his lack of major trophies, Kane remains unfazed as he leads his team to victory. In their recent match against Bayer Leverkusen, who prevented Bayern from winning their 12th consecutive title last year, Kane helped secure a 0-0 draw. This puts Vincent Kompany's team eight points ahead at the top of the table with only 12 games left to play.
Kane's impressive record speaks for itself, with 21 goals in the league this season and an additional seven in eight European games. His most recent goal came in the first-leg win against Celtic in Glasgow. With his teammates such as Michael Olise, Kingsley Coman, and Leroy Sane by his side, Kane is determined to lead Bayern into the last 16 draw.
Although Celtic has shown improvement in their European performance this season, they may face elimination against a strong Bayern side. With a formidable attack and a solid defense, Bayern has won nine of their last 11 matches in all competitions. However, their defense may be their Achilles heel in reaching the final on home soil in May. Nonetheless, they remain unbeaten in their last 20 Champions League games at the Allianz Arena, with 16 of those being victories.
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers may have a tough time trying to contain Bayern's goal-scoring prowess in their upcoming match. It has been seven seasons since Celtic has won an away game in the Champions League, making their chances even slimmer. Bet365 offers Bayern at 12/1 to win 4-1, while others like Betfred and Betfair have odds of 13/8 for over 4.5 goals.
Kane is favored to score the first goal at 13/5 with Paddy Power and Betfair, but it is almost certain that he will find the back of the net at some point in the match. For a more promising bet, Jamal Musiala at 7/5 with the same two firms is a solid choice, with 16 goals already under his belt this season. For Celtic, Daizen Maeda, who scored in their previous match against Bayern, has odds of 6/1 to do it again with multiple betting firms.
In other news, the Champions Trophy, starting on Wednesday, has England as the third favorites at 13/2 with Unibet. However, India leads the pack at 7/4 with Sky Bet. For their match on Saturday in Lahore, Australia is favored at 4/5 with Paddy Power and Betfair, while also being the outright favorites at 11/2. For punters looking to make an each-way bet, Travis Head at 10/1 with Sky Bet is a good choice for the top run scorer, and Arshdeep Singh, also at 10/1, is a promising option for the leading wicket-taker.
In Tuesday's Football League acca, Crawley, Mansfield, Doncaster, and Wimbledon make a strong combination. In other news, Ruben Amorim has been told that he "doesn't understand" a key part of the Man Utd job, and Michael Owen has criticized three Man Utd players for their lackluster performances. Lastly, Mark Selby sends a classy message to Stephen Maguire after his recent struggles on the field.
