Bayern Munich are the 13/82.63 Champions League favourites and are riding a five-game winning run against PSG. But the Germans are 9/52.80 to win the first leg of this semi-final after the defending champions coasted past Chelsea and Liverpool.

Luis Enrique's side have kept six clean sheets in eight games but eight of Bayern's last nine Champions League matches have seen both teams score and 11 of 12 have had over 2.5 goals. Vincent Kompany's men have scored at least four goals in four of the last five so there should in theory at least be plenty of action here.

And that should mean player props options for us to take a swing at, including a nice 12/113.00 shot that caught the eye on saves and offsides.

Lucas Chevalier made three saves and Manuel Neuer eight when these two last met back in November, with both keepers making saves in each half, so expect more of that again.

Both sides were also caught offside three times each, with PSG having one in each half but Bayern having all three in the first half (one was on 44 minutes), so this bet didn't land then but has every chance this time around.

We had 34 shots with 14 on target in that November meeting along with 16 fouls so we should have plenty to go at for player props purposes.

For PSG, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been mustard in the knockouts with five goals in five games, including 2+ shots on target in three of the past four. Back him for 2+ shots on target again at 5/42.25.

For a decent Bet Builder leg and more value play, Achraf Hakimi to have 1+ shot on target at 13/102.30 is worth a look, as four of his six shots on target have come at home in the competition this season.

In terms of fouls, Kvaratskhelia has suffered 26 in the UCL this season, including four in both legs against Liverpool and nine in his last three home ties, so at 13/102.30 to be fouled 3+ times again he's also worth a look in this market.

We all know about Harry Kane but outside of the red-hot forward Luis Diaz is one to keep an eye on as the Colombian has scored in his last three Champions League games.

He also scored twice in Paris back in November in just 44 minutes before being sent off, so a return to Parc des Princes should stir up that South American temperament.

Along with PSG, Diaz has had two other 2+ foul games, with all three coming away from home, while he's also had three 2+ shots on target games. He's 12/53.40 for 2+ shots on target here which is a nice angle for a single, but we'll back him to double up again.
