STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Weds: Bayern Munich v PSG

After the nine-goal thriller in the first leg, Bayern Munich and PSG do battle again on Wednesday night with a spot in the Champions League final up for grabs, writes JOE CITRONE.

In one of the most memorable Champions League clashes in recent history, Paris Saint-Germain edged out Bayern Munich in a thrilling 5-4 encounter last week, giving the French side a narrow advantage heading into the return leg.

However, given how open and end-to-end that first encounter was, and with Bayern Munich now holding home advantage for the second leg, the tie could easily swing the other way.

For Bayern Munich, the key figure they’ll be counting on in this second leg is, of course, Harry Kane – who would surely relish the prospect of a final against Arsenal after spending so many years wearing the colours of arch rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

Michael Olise has really kicked on as well since arriving in the Bundesliga from Crystal Palace, and possesses the pace, skill and creativity to cause real problems here.

I’d be amazed if this match is even remotely close to being as exciting as that ridiculous first leg – although I hope it is, of course – but I just think Bayern Munich could have the slight edge here as they hunt down more silverware under Vincent Kompany.

At 4/5 with starsports.bet, I am backing Bayern Munich to win the tie here.
