The absence of the injured Robert Lewandowski from the Germans' line-up is an obvious concern for Bayern backers but the European champions are far from a one-man team.

Those considering turning to PSG should also note the problems in their side - most notably the fact that midfielders Marco Verratti and Leandro Paredes both miss out.

That's a big hole to fill in the centre of the park one I suspect will lead to Bayern creating plenty of chances, as they usually do.

Those opportunities often fall to Lewandowski but others will need to step up here and there are two obvious candidates.

With Serge Gnabry also sidelined following a positive coronavirus test, Eric Choupo-Moting is set to lead the line and at 11/4 he looks big to land two shots on target given the service which is likely to be provided by the likes of Leroy Sane and Thomas Muller, who already has 18 assists for the season.

The former Stoke (and PSG) man has landed this bet on three of his last five starts, including the weekend win over RB Leipzig.

Midfielder Leon Goretzka has also been providing plenty to the Bayern attack of late.

He's scored in four of his last eight games for club and country - including in big matches v Dortmund and Leipzig - and has hit a shot on target in 10 of his last 14 starts.

The latter prop is at 11/10. Combine it with Moting 2+ SOT and the Same Game Multi can be backed at a tasty 8.28/1.
