While not exactly generous, the +275 price on Harry Kane to score two or more goals still catches the eye. He&#8217;s found the net in four Champions League home matches this season, and in three of those he struck twice. After bringing up his 49th goal of the campaign at the Bernab\u00e9u last week, another brace here wouldn&#8217;t be unexpected.

A late goal from Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 kept the tie alive for the visitors, who will still believe they can turn things around. Bayern can take confidence from their strong record in Europe after winning the first leg away from home, having progressed in 29 of their last 30 such ties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They followed that result with a dominant 5-0 league win and sit comfortably clear at the top of the Bundesliga, but their focus now shifts back to the Champions League. Despite a poor recent record against Spanish opposition in knockout ties, their home form offers encouragement. Bayern have won all five of their European matches at the Allianz Arena this season and rarely lose there, which gives them a strong chance of finishing the job and reaching the semi-finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real Madrid are in danger of ending a second straight season without major silverware as their form dips at a crucial stage. Their first leg defeat to Bayern came in between disappointing league results, including a loss to Mallorca and a home draw with Girona that drew frustration from supporters. Those dropped points have allowed Barcelona to open up a significant lead at the top of La Liga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the departure of Xabi Alonso, things have not gone smoothly for manager Alvaro Arbeloa, with a cup upset and inconsistent European performances increasing the pressure. Despite their struggles, Real Madrid&#8217;s history in this competition offers hope. They have a strong record against German teams and have enjoyed success at the Allianz Arena, remaining unbeaten there in recent visits, which gives them belief they can still overturn the deficit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-head-to-head-last-6-meetings\">Head-to-Head: Last 6 Meetings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last six meetings between Bayern and Real have delivered drama and goals, with three wins for Madrid, two for Bayern, and two draws. Bayern&#8217;s recent 2-1 away win has swung the momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Date<\/th><th>Score<\/th><th>Competition<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>07\/04\/26<\/td><td>Real Madrid 1-2 Bayern Munich<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>08\/05\/24<\/td><td>Real Madrid 2-1 Bayern Munich<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>30\/04\/24<\/td><td>Bayern Munich 2-2 Real Madrid<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>01\/05\/18<\/td><td>Real Madrid 2-2 Bayern Munich<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>25\/04\/18<\/td><td>Bayern Munich 1-2 Real Madrid<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>18\/04\/17<\/td><td>Real Madrid 4-2 Bayern Munich<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/champions-league\/\">Champions League<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bayern Munich look in pole position to reach the next stage, fueled by a dominant season and their recent win in Madrid.
