Yesterday’s contests were very interesting with Real Madrid able to put together a big victory over their opponents while Liverpool needed a penalty to get past their first fixture. 

The really interesting match-up was Arsenal who lost out by a solid margin to Borussia Dortmund in a match that likely opened up more questions for Arsene Wenger’s men than it answered. They still have a ways to go, Arsenal, and they will need their side to stay more organized and cohesive if they expect to progress out of the group stages of the Champions League. 

In today’s fixtures we have a few solid looking matches but there are still plenty of big favourites - not the least of which is Bayern Munich who are short-priced at a 1.66 margin to get the better of Manchester City. The Man City faithful will likely enjoy the 5.0 price available on their side if they genuinely believe that they can get the away victory here against the German champions. 

Look for the draw to be a popular wager as well with a 4.20 payout awaiting anybody who believes it’s going to come in. The first goal in this match-up is likely to be absolutely crucial as fans will be expecting Bayern to trouble the Manchester City back line and capitalize on any mistakes made by Vincent Kompany and his three counterparts. 

Arjen Robben and Thomas Muller are likely to be the key go-to players for Bayern Munich and it remains to be seen whether City have a genuine game plan for Robben and his tendency to cut inside and score off the left foot. The big issue with man marking any of the Bayern players is that they simply have so many potential match-winners on the pitch and they have every chance to simply pop up and find more space while defenders concentrate on other players who were perceived to be a much greater threat.
