Just 2 months and 23 days after it was originally scheduled, The 2020 Champions League Final has finally arrived!
Fittingly this years final will see the Champions of France take on the Champions of Germany, with history set to be created either way the ball drops.
PSG take part in their first ever UCL Final, after what seems like a thousand attempts, if triumphant they will become only the second French side behind Marseille (92/93) to lift the European Trophy.
Alternatively, Bayern Munich will be looking to secure their sixth European Trophy and in turn become the first side to win every fixture on their way to the title (11W).
With two highly offensive teams taking to the park on Monday morning (AEST) there is certainly plenty of value to be found from a betting perspective.
Our Champions League Clairvoyant has taken a fine tooth comb to our 175+ ‘PSG vs Bayern Munich’ markets and plucked out his three betting plays along with a long odds multi!
We’re out to answer the old adage – “Money can’t buy you happiness, but can it buy you a Champions League Title?’
There’s no arguing that Bayern are the form side in Europe at the minute, the German juggernaut are unbeaten in their last 29 matches across all comps, winning 28 of those outings!
While, PSG are on their own little streak, claiming eight straight wins.
The French Champs have invested heavily in their squad, with the likes of Mbappe & Neymar costing more than their opponents entire Footballing department, but money doesn’t buy chemistry and like most German products, Bayern Munich is an efficient, well oiled competition winning unit.
Take Bayern to Win @$2.
Now that we’ve settled on a winner let’s take a look at some other markets.
As mentioned above PSG have two world class taking weapons in Mbappe & Neymar, who will no doubt give Bayern’s back line plenty of grief.
PSG have managed to score an impressive 25 times this campaign, bettered by only one team, Bayern Munich.
The German’s have netted a jaw dropping 42 times across their 10 UCL fixtures! Four more goals will see them topple Barcelona’s Champions League record of 45, doing so in five less matches.
Despite both teams progressing through the Semis without the loss a goal, neither sides defensive units have looked particularly reliable throughout the tournament.
Four of the last six UCL finals have finished with over 3.5 goals and I wouldn’t be surprised if this contest hit surpassed that mark in the first hour of play.
There’s only one man to back here and his name starts with an ‘L’ and ends with a ‘ewandowski’!
The prolific Polish striker has been gifted with the Midas touch this season.
Lewandowski leads the 2019/20 UCL in both Goals (15) and Assists (6), becoming just the second man in history to be involved in 20+ goals in one campaign, with CR7 having done so on two occasions!
The Body has scored in 9 consecutive UCL matches, with his total tally of 15 just two goals behind the all-time record of that man again, C.Ronaldo!
The Big Lebowski should score at some point in the final, but the real question is when? and how many times?
The Safe play is to take Lewandowski anytime @$1.62, but I’ll be backing the storyline in this one and taking on the 2+ Goals market.
After playing it more conservatively across the opening three betting plays, I’ve decided to lace this SGM from 40 yards out, could end up in top bins, could just as easily end up in the Row Z.
History remembers the brave!
