Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich preview
Nights don’t get much bigger than this as heavyweights Real Madrid and Bayern Munich clash for a place in the Champions League final at Wembley on June 1, 2024.
The tie is delicately poised at 2-2 after a thoroughly entertaining encounter at the Allianz Arena.
The Bundesliga giants had looked to be heading to Spain in the driving seat until Vinicius Jr’s late strike gave Real a slender edge.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side should also arrive in high spirits after they were crowned champions of La Liga for the 36th time over the weekend following their 3-0 win over Cadiz.
It was the club’s 37th competitive win of the campaign and the 13th time they’ve scored 3+ goals at the Bernabeu since September.
It wasn’t such good news for the visitors, who were beaten 3-1 by Stuttgart, albeit with a much-changed starting XI. It does leave Bayern with just two wins from their last nine games away from the Allianz Arena.
They have also gone 16-consecutive games without a clean sheet against Real Madrid in their European Cup and Champions League history, while they are also winless in eight meetings against the Spanish side.

Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich betting tips
Death, taxes…
It’s a cliché, but Real Madrid in knockout tournaments are a serious force to be reckoned with.
The LaLiga winners and 14-time European champions are flying high after their success over the weekend, and will fancy their chances of progressing to next month’s final.
They’ll also have faith in Carlo Ancelotti, who’s looking to reach his sixth Champions League final with his current tally of five already making him the only manager to have achieved that.
He’s not lost to Bayern Munich in any of his last NINE meetings (W6, D3) while Real are unbeaten at the Bernabeu in 13 months. That paired with the fact Bayern are without a clean sheet away from home throughout 2024 should see the hosts progress.

Goalscorer
The Brazilian has a simply outstanding record in the Champions League, and a habit of delivering on the biggest occasions.
Vinicius Junior has struck 20 goals and provided 22 assists in 54 UCL matches. He’s scored in two UCL semi-finals and a final over the last few years, and netted a brace in the first leg.

Bookings
This contest should have its fair share of bookings.
In fact, excluding the Covid season, the second leg of Champions League semi-finals across the past five years have seen an average of 5.4 cards per match.
The match will also be officiated by referee Szymon Marciniak, who’s dished out 170 cards in 38 games this season with 24 of those arriving in just four UCL matches (6 per game).
So we’re opting for Over 6 cards to be awarded during the 90 minutes at odds of 14/5 with William Hill.
