Galatasaray vs Bayern Munich best bet: Bayern ML & Both Teams To Score – Yes (+150)
Bayern Munich is unbeaten in 11 games across all competitions, but does allow opponents to score goals. Both teams have scored in 7 of the German club’s last 10 games. Turkish hosts Galatasaray have scored in 13 straight games, including 3 on the road at Manchester United in their last Champions League matchup. We’ll take Bayern to win a game in which both teams score.
Sevilla vs Arsenal best bet: Tie (+285)
Arsenal lost on its last Champions League road trip to Lens and, only 3 days after a 2-2 draw at Chelsea in the Premier League, the Gunners may have to settle for a point again at Sevilla. The Spanish club is strong at home and has already tied its opening 2 Champions League games against Lens and PSV.
