Bayern Munich v Lyon Champions League Betting Preview

It has been nine years since Bayern Munich last made it to a Champions League final, Lyon have never made it to a semi-final. The Germans may be the heavy betting favourites to progress to the final but Lyon have already upset the odds a number of times already this season including seeing off Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bordeaux. Can they do so again? They will need to be on top of their game at the Allianz Arena tonight if they are to take the upper hand.

Bayern come into this game in great confidence after knocking out Manchester United in the quarters and beating Hannover 7-0 at the weekend. Old Trafford hero Arjen Robben netted a hat trick in that game and is available to back at odds of 11/2 with William Hill (Go to William Hill ») to get the first goal of the game tonight. You can also claim a free first goalscorer bet with William Hill by placing a bet of £20 or more on the match odds market.

Munich are 7/10 with Paddy Power (Go to Paddy Power ») to continue their impressive run of form with a victory tonight, whilst Lyon are 9/2 with Bet365 (Go to Bet365 ») to upset the odds once again. Can either team seize the initiative as Inter did last night? Or will it all be left until the return leg next week?
