The odds look stacked against PSG in Germany tonight as they attempt to overturn a 1-0 deficit from their first leg against Bayern Munich.
The Germans have won all their Champions League games this season and sit top of a tightly-contested Bundesliga. Seldom do they come unstuck in situations where they’re ahead in the tie.
PSG will need to turn the tie around without Neymar who has been ruled out for the rest of the season, but do of course still have two of the best players in Europe in the shape of Mbappe and Messi to turn to.
The Germans are overwhelming favourites to qualify at 2/11 with PSG at 7/2. If the Parisiens are to qualify you’d think they’ll need to score the first the goal which is a 6/4 shot, otherwise they’ll need to come from behind and win at 10/1.
But Bayern are more than capable of picking them off they go chasing it at the Allianz Arena and a home win looks attractive at 5/6.
None of tonight’s SPFL Premiership matches are live on Sky which is a shame because we should be in for a treat, especially at Easter Road.
The last two meetings between Hibs and Rangers have provided plenty of drama. The Gers had to come from behind twice at Ibrox to win all three points in Michael Beale’s first game in charge in November. Prior to that 9-man Rangers couldn’t hold on to all three points in Edinburgh as Josh Campbell‘s 92nd minute strike earned the Hibees a point in a dramatic 2-2 draw.
It’s an in-form Hibs side that Rangers face tonight. Lee Johnson is enjoying his best run of form in charge of Hibs, winning four of the last five and taking 17 points from the last 21. They’ve not been shy in front of goal either, scoring 17 in their last 7 league games including four at the weekend away to Livingston.
It all points to another thriller in Leith. Hibs are 5/1 to win, you’d probably want a little bit bigger than that to get involved, especially considering Rangers’ only defeat under Beale has been to Celtic in last week’s cup final.
We should see goals however and Over 2.5 Goals pays 8/11. Hibs’ form in front of goal points to them getting on the scoresheet and so should Beale’s men, so add in BTTS to make it 6/5 shot.
In Glasgow, relentless Celtic welcome 3rd placed Hearts to Celtic Park. The Hoops came from behind to thrash 10-man St Mirren on Sunday to maintain their nine point lead at the summit.
The sides face each other again at Tynecastle in the Scottish Cup at the weekend and the Jambos would arguably rather win that one if offered to them right now but they won’t want to be on the end of a drubbing tonight.
That could be unavoidable though given the form Ange Postecoglou’s side are in. They’re averaging over three goals per game since the World Cup and have scored four or more in half of their matches since the return to action. Another three Celtic goals pays just 4/6 however and it’s difficult to find much value elsewhere. Celtic have scored 24 first half goals in 13 home matches so that could be angle with Over 1.5 first half strikes at 10/11.
