CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MD3 TIPS: BACK EUROPE’S IN-FORM ELITE

Tip 1 – Bayern Munich Over 3.5 Goals vs Club Brugge @ 29/20
Bayern Munich are as imperious as it gets right now, having beaten every team in front of them – with standout performances from their biggest stars leading the charge.
The six-time European champions have scored 36 goals so far this season – eight in the Champions League with Harry Kane starring in half of them.
To make matters worse for Club Brugge, Bayern’s last three wins in Europe all featured over 3.5 goals… a market currently priced at 29/20 to land again this Wednesday in Munich.
This bet only gets livelier when you consider Brugge have conceded two or more goals in three of their last five matches.
Kane looks set to find the net for the 10th game running, but the scary thing is, he’s not the only one in incredible form at the moment, with Michael Olise and Luis Diaz more than capable of giving the visitors nightmares.
Tip 2 – Inter to win, Over 2.5 Goals & Both Teams Not to Score vs Union Saint-Gilloise @ 6/1
The Italian giants are next up with a 6/1 Bet Builder offering serious value for a side expected to storm this game in complete control.
Inter travel to Brussels with real intent, having won both of their opening fixtures with ease – five goals scored, none conceded – brushing aside Ajax and Slavia Praha with the same ruthless efficiency that saw them dominate the group stage last season.
Union Saint-Gilloise is a different story.
The reigning Belgian Pro League champions kicked off their return to the main stage in style with a hearty 3-1 win over PSV but were brought back down to earth with a 4-0 thrashing at home to Newcastle.
With Inter’s defence yet to be breached and their attack firing, it’s hard to imagine anything less than a repeat of Matchday 2 for the hosts.
Tip 3 – Eberechi Eze Over 2.5 Shots vs Atletico Madrid @ 10/13
Arsenal are another top team picking up exactly where they left off – only this week, they face an Atletico Madrid side hailed as one of the most dogged defensive units in world football.
Often seen as kindred spirits for that reason, this clash will no doubt test the Gunners’ resolve, particularly in the final third.
Fortunately for them, there’s Eberechi Eze – a proven difference-maker with knack for carving out space in tight pockets and pulling the trigger; something Mikel Arteta has lacked against rigid low blocks in previous seasons.
The England international leads all Arsenal players for shot volume this season, averaging 2.83 attempts per match in the Premier League – an output that reflects his confidence and growing influence in central areas.
It’s a figure that’s only likely to rise in Arsenal colours. Last season at Crystal Palace, Eze took 102 shots – the sixth most in the entire league – operating from a similar position.
Is this the night he announces himself on the grandest stage in club football? At 10/13 for over 2.5 shots, he’s certainly worth a punt.
