Champions League Tips
Let's head to the Allianz Arena for Saturday's final, and three tips.
PSG v Inter Milan
All eyes turn to Germany this weekend, as the Champions League final takes place in Munich. The first two European finals have gone to British sides, that won't happen here though.
I think there's a lot of belief and determination in the PSG camp, ultimately that's what I think will see them through in this game. Pressured to win a European trophy for years, they've certainly tried, but the moment they lost Kylian Mbappe, many people wrote them off, myself included.
That loss, has actually turned into a positive. Not just a one man team, a group together with a desire to success, prove people wrong, and get that much sought after trophy in the cabinet.
When you look at PSG's performances in this competition, they've been better than anyone else. I thought they were very good against Arsenal, equally as good against Liverpool. A repeat of that can see them win this, my first bet on the game is for them to win in 90 minutes.
Next up, how I think the game will flow. I do think there will be goals, and I also think that at some point, Inter Milan are going to have to chase the game. There's nothing more dangerous than chasing against a quick counter attacking side, which PSG certainly are.
So, while I think it will be close, to a certain extent, I think the value on the correct score market is to go with things where PSG can get an extra goal, when Inter Milan are pushing.
At 16/1, a PSG 3-1 victory looks too big to me. I can see them being ahead, and grabbing another to seal the game in the closing stages, which this score is one of the possibilities for that scenario.
Finally, big games require big moments, and from an attacking point of view for PSG, Khvicha Kvaratshkeila is the man to do the damage. He's brought his 'A' game to the table in previous rounds, I think the stage is set for him to have a massive impact here.
He's 11/5 to score anytime in the game, something I could definitely see happening.
- TIP - PSG to Win - 6/5
- TIP - PSG 3-1 Inter Correct Score - 16/1
- TIP - Kvaratshkelia Anytime Scorer - 11/5

Champions League Tips - Weekly Predictions from Freebets
The Champions League is the highest level of European football, with the elite from the club game battling it out for the continent's most coveted trophy, which makes Champions League betting a huge part of the industry.
With so many games going on at once - and don't forget about the new Champions League format - making Champions League predictions has never been better, with plenty of betting angles and markets at play meaning you can always be sure of finding value in the bookmaker odds.
This is where our team of Champions League tipsters comes in, because we will scour the market for the best odds, enhanced offers and tips to inform our Champions League football tips and give you the best chance of finding a winner - which is what we all care about!
Champions League Betting
If you're here, you probably know all about the UEFA Champions League and its prestige, but how does that translate into Champions League betting and providing predictions?
Well, let's start at the beginning with the new format and how that affects our betting tips.
UEFA made the decision this season to increase the number of teams entering the tournament from 32 to 36, which means an increase in the number of matches from 125 to 189 - plenty of opportunity to pick a few winners!
The whole idea behind creating the new format and changing the group stage of the competition into a league phase consisting of all 36 teams was aimed at improving the chances of the stronger sides in Europe qualifying for the knockout stages, with more matches this year against weaker opposition.
With so many games going on at once - and a lot of them between mismatched opposition - it means we have really good opportunities at creating big accumulators, whether it be goalscorer accas, both teams to score tips, or just picking outright winners, there are plenty of options which should give us some good bookmaker odds.
So the first tip we can give you is always make sure you checkout out the fixture list, because some matchday offer up more mismatches than others, while home advantage is also very important in the Champions League so carefully consider which sides are strongest at home and who travels the best - you will always get better value when betting on an away team.
One of the biggest frustrations with Champions League betting can be when a manager decides to rotate his squad, and name a much weaker side to play the midweek matches. With this in mind, it's important to look at the league games either side of a European fixture, and consider the respective positions of the two sides involved.
For example, Pep Guardiola is more like to rotate his Manchester City squad for a game against RB Leipzig than he is against Barcelona so even though they are huge favourites, the prices could be slightly misleading and betting on individual players is quite a risky strategy. Similarly, if City had a game against Liverpool coming up at the weekend, they might be slightly more reluctant to name a full-strength XI no matter who they are playing, so it's very important to keep up with the fixtures.
The knockout stages can also be really difficult when providing Champions League betting tips, because we are talking about the best sides on the continent coming up against each other. We do our best to provide the best betting tips with no stone left unturned, but the nature of top-level sport means anything could happen on the day, and that's why we all love it!
