Bayern Munich vs Benfica predictions and football betting tips for Tuesday’s Champions League quarter final first leg in Munich.
This week sees the return of the infamous European club competition the Champions League. On Tuesday 5th April Bayern Munich host Benfica at the Allianz-Arena and our football tipster has got three tips.
Bayern Munich vs Benfica Predictions
Bayern are five points clear in the league and with that cushion behind them, they will most definitely go full strength here. As they came through the last round in the very last minutes against Juventus they will want to make sure this game goes to plan. Since winning that game in extra time they have managed to take two 1-0 wins in the league putting together a four game win streak since the draw with rivals Borussia Dortmund.
Benfica are definitely a team not to be wrote off. Just like Bayern they are five points clear in the Portuguese league and have just beaten second place Sporting 5-1. Benfica have actually only lost one game out 19 and the record before that is just as impressive. They are normally a banker for your acca but against such a strong opposition, they are major underdogs in the betting odds this fixture. Benfica put Zenit out in the last round winning both ties, they are going to be full of confidence going into this game.
Bayern at 1/5 is way too short, I do feel Benfica at 18/1 at Ladbrokes is really big odds, but with them travelling I could not justify tipping anything like that.
Thomas Muller has 32 goals in all competitions this season and is a player you can expect to score in any game, he has three goals in his last three games for his club and when he scores in consecutive games he generally tends to put a run together, he may not score in one game in that run but you can guarantee a solid record with him. He has scored the first goal of the games seven times in the league and although this is a different competition I believe that at 4/1 with Coral, this Bayern Munich vs Benfica prediction definitely has a chance.

Benfica have scored in their last six away games, although the opposition isn't as strong as the one they face here it is still a good indication of their caliber. In the Champions League they have scored in their last four away games, and these have been against much stronger teams such as Atletico Madrid or Galatasaray. Bayern haven’t been the most solid at home of late, conceding in three of five of the last games at home including four of the last six Champions League games. The away goal may be crucial for Benfica so they will definitely push it, meaning they could be left open for Bayern to attack. The odds of for both teams to score at 31/20 with Bet Victor seems good value to me as the past record for both teams indicate that this bet has a strong possibility.
My second Bayern Munich vs Benfica prediction is for both teams to score at odds of 31/20 with Bet Victor.

I feel Bayern will take the lead going into the away fixture, as mentioned, Benfica may be caught on the counter numerous times whilst pushing for the away goal and with Bayern’s talent they may punish their Portuguese opposition. The odds for Bayern to win alone is too short, but combining it with a bet including a number of goals then the odds can really work in your favour. For my final Bayern Munich v Benfica prediction in this game I am going with Bayern to win and over 2.5 goals at 4/6 with Paddy Power I am more than confident in this and hope to bring you even more winners this week.
