Bayern Munich vs Club Brugge Preview
Bayern have been an unstoppable machine this season, spearheaded by the brilliance of Harry Kane.
Vincent Kompany’s side have won all 11 matches across all competitions, claiming a crucial 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund on the weekend.
In the Champions League, Bayern followed up a 3-1 success over Chelsea with a 5-1 win at Pafos, with Kane scoring twice in each of those fixtures.
With the England captain brilliantly supported by the likes of Michael Olise, Luis Diaz, Serge Gnabry and Nicolas Jackson, the Bavarian side look more than capable of going deep into the competition.
The information above only highlights the scale of Club Brugge’s task this evening, with the Belgian outfit losing 2-1 at Atalanta on Matchday 1 after beating Monaco 4-1.
Nicky Hayen’s men are on a decent run of form in the Jupiler Pro League, though, with a vital 1-0 win over Union Saint-Gilloise in the middle of away victories over Standard Liege (1-2) and OH Leuven (0-1).
Christos Tzolis netted the winner against Leuven on the weekend, with the Greek winger scoring in three of the last four matches across all competitions.
With Club Brugge likely restricted to operating on the counter by Bayern, Tzolis needs to be at the top of his game. Otherwise, it could be an even longer night for the visitors.
This is the first meeting between the two sides since the 2005-06 group stage, with Bayern winning 1-0 at home and the match in Bruges finishing 1-1.

Bayern Munich vs Club Brugge Betting Tips
Anytime goalscorer – Michael Olise @ 2.10
Kane is the obvious choice in this market, but his odds of 1.40 do not really represent great value. So we like the look of Olise, who is also deadly in the final third. The Frenchman scored in the 2-1 win over Dortmund, and also netted in the 5-1 win at Pafos. And in Bundesliga action overall, Olise has already tallied four goals from seven appearances. A non-Kane selection which looks well worth the extra risk!
Harry Kane to have over 2.5 shots on target @ 2.20
But if you are still looking to place a bet on Kane, this could be a great route to go down. In seven Bundesliga appearances, the English striker has registered 17 shots on target, an average of over three per game. And in the Champions League, Kane has tallied six shots on target in two matches, an average of exactly three per game. There is nothing quite like stats to support a betting tip!
