Bet of the DayHarry Kane to score anytime @ 21/20

After Bayer Leverkusen’s Bundesliga title was finally confirmed on Sunday, Bayern’s last chance for silverware will be the Champions League and they should feel confident that they can move one step closer to the final with victory over an Arsenal side damaged from a weekend disappointment.

The Gunners were beaten 2-0 at home by Aston Villa, putting a major dent in their Premier League title ambitions, and Mikel Arteta’s men may still be feeling the effects of that defeat when they travel to the Allianz on Sunday.

One man that will be desperate to cause more Gunners heartache will be former Tottenham striker Harry Kane, who has scored 15 goals against Arsenal over the years.

The 30-year-old has seven goals in the Champions League this season, including notching from the spot in last week’s first leg, and he will be expected to be in and around the goals again on Wednesday.

Special of the DayErling Haaland, Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez to all have 1+ shot on target @ 43/40

After playing out an enthralling 3-3 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu in the first leg, both Manchester City and Real Madrid will be confident that they can grab goals in what is surely to be a lively and exciting encounter.

Home advantage is likely to give City the edge in the form of possession and chances, while the attacking talents on show could cause havoc for the Real Madrid backline.

Erling Haaland, Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez all rank in the top three for the club when it comes to shots and shots on target in the Premier League this season, while they also make up three of the top four for the Citizens in Europe. All three will be hoping to test Real’s resistance this midweek.

Long shot of the DayDundee to win and Luke McCowan to score anytime @ 15/1

After suffering a shock defeat to second-bottom Ross County on Sunday, Rangers could find life difficult when they face a Dundee side in strong form at home.

The Dee have lost just one of their last five at Dens Park – a 3-2 defeat to Motherwell in their most recent fixture at the venue – and Tony Docherty’s side should be right up for their meeting with the title chasing Gers.

If Dundee are to come away with three points, then Luke McCowan will likely have to be at his very best on Wednesday evening. He leads the side for goals this season with nine, while the 26-year-old has also netted in four of his last five home appearances. He could have a major say on what could prove to be a memorable night for the hosts.
