Man Utd vs Bayern Munich match tip
Harry Kane to score anytime @ 23/20 with BetMGM
There’s a new Harry Kane team. Many looked at the strength of the Premier League when Erling Haaland started scoring for fun having moved from Borussia Dortmund last summer, but this year it’s the reverse with Kane. Since swapping Tottenham for Bayern Munich, Kane has scored 22 goals in 19 games, only failing to find the net in five of the matches he started.
Man Utd vs Bayern Munich Bet-Builder tip
Bayern Munich to win, BTTS and Harry Kane to have over 1.5 shots on target
Although Man Utd got the last laugh in the 1999 Champions League final, that was actually one of just two wins they have managed over Bayern Munich. The other victory proved to be pretty pointless too, as they were beaten on away goals in the 2010 Champions League quarter-finals. The most recent meeting was a goalfest too, with Bayern edging a 4-3 thriller at the Allianz. And Kane has averaged 1.84 shots on target per 90 minutes in the Champions League so far this season.

Man Utd vs Bayern Munich odds
MAN UTD VS BAYERN MUNICH
It’s do or die for Man Utd in the Champions League and they may even end Tuesday having failed to qualify for the Europa League. The Red Devils go into the final week of games bottom of the group with just four points from their five matches. They have lost three games, only managing to beat FC Copenhagen while drawing with Galatasaray last time out.
Man Utd need to win and hope FC Copenhagen vs Galatasaray ends in a draw in order to reach the last 16 of the Champions League. If there is a winner in that game, Man Utd would have to settle for the Europa League with their win. A draw could also confirm Europa League football if FC Copenhagen lose. Bayern Munich, meanwhile, come into this game having already secured top spot and their place in the last 16. Thomas Tuchel’s men won their opening four games before finally dropping points against Copenhagen last time out, though the job was done.
But, it’s worth noting that both of these teams come into this game off the back of heavy domestic defeats. Man Utd were beaten 3-0 at home by Bournemouth, losing to the Cherries at Old Trafford for the first ever time, compiling the pressure on Erik ten Hag. Bayern, meanwhile, were thrashed 5-1 by Eintracht Frankfurt to lose some ground on early Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen.

Victor Lindelof, Christian Eriksen and Mason Mount are expected back this month, but this game will be too soon. Bruno Fernandes is available, but will miss the weekend’s Premier League game against Liverpool through suspension.

Man Utd vs Bayern Munich head-to-head record

- 30 March 2010 – Bayern Munich 2-1 Man Utd – Champions League
Bayern Munich have knocked Man Utd out of the Champions League the past two times they have met, including in 2010 when they advanced on away goals thanks to a fantastic strike from Arjen Robben. However, Man Utd will always have that night in Barcelona when they beat Bayern Munich in the 1999 Champions League final to secure the Treble.
