Pep Guardiola gets some reinforcements with John Stones and Ruben<strong> <\/strong>Dias returning, though neither is in top form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>City was just battered 5-1 by Arsenal in the Premier League with Stones in the lineup. A few matches before that, it lost 4-2 to PSG in the UCL league stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Mbappe has 67 SOT for Real Madrid, clearing this line in 22 of 34 games across all competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong>Kane to score (-143<strong>)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>:<\/strong> I don&#8217;t love these odds but you could argue they&#8217;re generous considering how lopsided this matchup could get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bayern&#8217;s offence was ever-threatening during the league stage but it squandered some big chances, which is why it&#8217;s in this playoff. The Bavarians currently lead in these key categories, per FotMob:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>22.5 xG (1st)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>68.9% possession (1st)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>8.6 shots on target\/game (1st)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>41 big chances (1st)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Kane was at the forefront of that attack, netting six goals on 6.4 xG. He also led this tournament with eight goals last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The English national is a goalscoring machine \u2014 he has 27 in 26 appearances for Bayern across all competitions \u2014 and gets a Celtic side which allowed 13.4 xG in the league stage (14th-most). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><em>Picks made at 10:01 a.m. on 02\/11\/25.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Champions League playoff stage begins this week as eight teams battle for the final four spots in the Round of 16.
