Bayern Munich vs Lazio match tip
Harry Kane to score anytime @ 4/6 with Bet UK
Harry Kane has scored in the his last two home apperances for Bayern Munich, furthermore he’s stepped up in Champions League play this season. He is Bayern’s leading scorer with four goals. The England international has been involved in 19 goals in 19 home Champions League appearances (12 goals and three assists for Spurs; three goals, one assist for Bayern). However, he’s never scored in three home knockout games, with 15 goals, the most any player has scored at home without ever finding the net in a home knockout game.
Bayern Munich vs Lazio odds
Bayern Munich has only gone out as early as the Round of 16 in one of their last 12 seasons in the competition, doing so in 2018/19 against eventual winners Liverpool (1-3 on aggregate).
Lazio have never won an away Champions League match in Germany in four attempts (two draws and two losses), including a 2-1 defeat to Bayern in March 2021. However, having beaten them 1-0 in the first leg, the Italian side is looking to become the first side since Real Madrid in 2016-17 to win home and away against Bayern in the same Champions League campaign.
Across all major European competitions, Lazio have progressed from 12 of their last 13 knockout ties when winning the first leg; the exception was in the 2017-18 UEFA Europa League quarter-final against RB Salzburg (4-2 first leg, 1-4 second leg).
It’s worth noting that Bayern has been eliminated from each of their last seven Champions League ties when they lost the first leg and 11 out of 14 overall. However, the two previous times they lost the first leg of a Round of 16 tie, they have recovered to qualify: in 2006-07 vs Real Madrid (2-3 first leg, 2-1 second leg, progressed on away goals) and 2011-12 vs Basel (0-1 first leg, 7-0 second leg).
Lazio is looking to reach their first Champions League quarter-final since the 1999-00 season when they qualified via the second group stage under Sven-Göran Eriksson. They have lost their two previous away knockout games, losing 5-2 to Valencia (1999-00 quarter-final) and 2-1 to Bayern München (2020-21 last 16).
