Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich Bet Builder Tips: Mbappe and Kane to strike

Tuesday brings with it a blockbuster Uefa Champions League clash as Real Madrid host Bayern Munich at the Santiago Bernabeu for the first leg of their quarter-final tie. These two heavyweights have a lot of individual talent in their ranks, which should make for a captivating contest.

Read on for my Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich bet builder tips, which combine for a 3/1 price.

Football Odds

Kylian Mbappe to score

Both these teams possess star quality up front and my bet builder kicks off with the two strikers to score. Kylian Mbappe is the pick for Real Madrid as the French superstar has bagged himself 13 goals in nine Champions League appearances this season.

The former Paris Saint-Germain man is without a goal in his last two European outings, but this does seem like a game in which he will rise to the occasion and return to form in front of goal.

Mbappe has 38 goals across 36 appearances for Los Blancos this campaign in all competitions. A two-game drought in Europe is insignificant compared to the numbers he has been posting throughout the season.

Harry Kane to score

Harry Kane is of course my pick for Bayern. Like Mbappe, the Englishman has posted some insane numbers this year. Kane has 48 goals in 40 club appearances in 2025/26, with 10 of them coming in the Champions League.

England's all-time record goalscorer has scored in each of his previous three appearances in this competition, scoring five goals in the process. It does seem like everything he has touched this season has turned to gold, so of the two, I am more confident in him finding the net on Tuesday.

Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich Odds

Jonathan Tah to commit 1+ fouls

Bayern defender Jonathan Tah has been getting into trouble consistently in the Champions League this campaign. The centre-back has been penalised 19 time for mistimed challenges. Fortunately for him and his team, he has only been booked once.

It's for that reason that I feel confident in backing the German to commit at least one foul on Tuesday. He has no threat of suspension hanging over him and he is likely going to have to handle some very quick players in Real Madrid's Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. amongst others.

Over 2.5 goals

Given the star-studded quality that is going to be on offer in the Spanish capital on Tuesday night, I am expecting no shortage of goals. Over 2.5 goals seems like a sensible selection considering both Mbappe and Kane are expected to be on the pitch together.

This has been a winning selection in each of Real Madrid's last six competitive matches, while there have been at least three goals scored in eight of Bayern's past nine fixtures in all competitions.

Over 2.5 goals has also struck in each of the past seven meetings between these two clubs.
