    Celtic vs Bayern Munich prediction: Free betting tips, odds and Champions League preview

    CELTIC are in knockout stage football in the Champions League for the first time since 2013.Their reward?

But it couldn’t have been much tougher.The Hoops welcome Bayern on Wednesday for the first leg before a trip to Germany next week, where they’ll hope to still be in the tie.That task has been made slightly easier by Daizen Maeda’s suspension being halved, allowing him to play here.Bayern will be bitterly disappointed to have missed out on the top eight but will be thrilled with the draw.Vincent Kompany’s men are away and gone at the top of the Bundesliga and this competition now is their main focus.They last visited Celtic Park in the groups of this competition back in 2017, with Kingsley Coman and Javi Martinez goals either side of a Callum McGregor strike earning them three points.First scorer and correct score predictionsCorrect score: 1-3 at 9/1 with Betfred – HEREFirst scorer: Harry Kane 13/5 with talkSPORT BET – HERECeltic vs Bayern Munich latest oddsOdds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.How to claim..William Hill £60 welcome bonusVisit the William Hill website HERE*Register an account using the Promo Code: T60Once your account is registered, click ‘opt in’ on the ‘Vegas Promotion’ pageDeposit a minimum of £10 in your main account to receive a £20 Vegas Bonus for use on Selected GamesThen place a bet with a minimum stake of £10 at odds of 1/2 or greater on any football marketOnce that’s settled, your account will be credited with £40 in free betsWilliam Hill: Claim £60 welcome bonus – click here*Celtic vs Bayern Munich predictions and tipsBookingAlistair Johnston has been a terrific performer at Celtic, attacking and defensively.But it’ll be the latter of those traits tested here, particularly with the attacking talent down the Bayern left.The last game he’d have been forced back was the goalless draw at Atalanta earlier in this competition and he picked up a booking there.

    Dream Team’s most in-form defender deserves popularity spike after latest double-digit haul

    DANIEL MUNOZ (£4.9m) is the Dream Team defender who refuses to drop down the rankings.We tipped the Crystal Palace wing-back in last week’s transfer recommendations article and he delivered in spades with a 15-point haul against Doncaster on Monday night.RelentlessCredit: Dream TeamThe Colombia international scored the opening goal and contributed to a clean sheet in the Eagles’ 2-0 win over their League Two opponents in the FA Cup fourth round.At the time of writing, Munoz is the top-scoring asset in his position for Gameweek 23.More broadly, he’s the most in-form defender in the game having plundered 35 points from his last three outings.But even that doesn’t tell the full story of his fruitful form of late.Munoz has been on a tear since Boxing Day, banking a mighty 88 points across the last eight Gameweeks!Munoz does it allCredit: ReutersThis surge has propelled the 28-year-old up to third in the defensive rankings.TOP DREAM TEAM DREAM DEFENDERS THIS SEASON:223 pts – Trent Alexander-Arnold (£6m)195 pts – Pedro Porro (£4.5m)189 pts – Daniel Munoz (£4.9m)187 pts – Virgil van Dijk (£5m)173 pts – Gabriel (£4.8m)Most read in FootballThe fact Munoz is rubbing shoulders with the absolute cream of the crop without European fixtures to bolster his schedule is highly impressive.One of the reasons he’s been able to amass such a high total is Oliver Glasner’s reluctance to rest him in the domestic cups.Munoz has earned 42 points from six appearances split between the Carabao Cup and FA Cup in 2024/25.And it’s this boon that makes him a particularly tempting option for the foreseeable future.Palace have four fixtures to fulfil across the next three Gameweeks and Munoz should start them all so long as he remains fit: Everton, Fulham, Aston Villa, Millwall.Munoz is the first name on Oliver Glasner’s team sheetCredit: GETTYThe ex-Genk defender is such a strong Dream Team asset because he has multiple routes to points.Glasner’s side have tightened up in recent weeks with five clean sheets in their last six games in all competitions – half their tally for the season.Munoz is also one of just two players to have made 100+ tackles in 2024/25, with Noussair Mazraoui (£2.9m) being the other.In fact, he’s earned a whopping 45 points from tackles alone this season.Factor in three goals plus five assists and it’s recipe for sustained success.READ MORE SUN STORIESOnly Alexander-Arnold averages more points-per-game than Munoz among defendersCredit: GettyAmazingly, only Alexander-Arnold (7.2) averages more points-per-game than Munoz (6.8m) among defenders this season.Palace’s No12 features in 3.3% of teams right now but he deserves a steep popularity spike this month.Score PredictorPlay Score Predictor with Dream Team this season!FREE to play£250 weekly prizePredict scores of five selected Premier League fixtures and earn points for accuracyMost points wins weekly cash prizePLAY NOW More

    Paul Scholes tells Ruben Amorim Man Utd are staring RELEGATION in the face unless they make seven new signings

    MANCHESTER UNITED need to make seven signings or risk relegation, according to Paul Scholes.The Red Devils have endured yet another torrid season with Ruben Amorim so far unable to transform their fortunes.Man Utd need seven new signings or face relegation says Paul ScholesCredit: ReutersScholes raised concerns over some players in the squadCredit: GettyFormer midfielder Scholes has been very critical of several players in the squad and believes United need a revamp to improve results.Scholes, 50, claims United need a whole new spine through their team and could need seven new faces in their squad.He told The Overlap Fan Debate: “There are a few things that are concerning. There’s a lot of stuff he (Ruben Amorim) needs to do, we all know that, especially in transfer windows, but I don’t see a core of players.”When you look at teams, you look right down the spine of a team. Liverpool: great goalkeeper, great centre half, forwards, midfielders, whatever. I don’t think United have any of that in any position.READ MORE ON MAN UTD”I think a new goalkeeper is needed, possibly two centre halves, two centre midfield players, and two centre forwards.”Alright, I’ll go for one centre midfielder and one centre forward, but with a bit of stature, a bit of quality, and really create a spine. When you’ve got that spine right, then you can add bits to it.”Scholes has also questioned whether certain stars are capable of playing in a Premier League-winning side.Even players who have performed well have been scrutinised by Scholes, who took aim at the United defence.Most read in FootballBEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERSAsked if he rates De Ligt, Scholes said: “Not really. Where are your ambitions? I’m talking about getting a team to win the Premier League.”Are you going to win the Premier League with De Ligt and Yoro as your centre-halves? Is “quite good” good enough for Manchester United?Roy Keane launches incredible blast at ‘shocking and boring’ Man Utd after woeful first half vs Leicester”Even when Lisandro Martinez is fit he’s not good enough to win the Premier League.”With De Ligt, his age and his amount of clubs does concern me. He seems to have got worse as he’s got older. Those clubs have got rid of him for a reason.”[Leny] Yoro is a young player but I haven’t liked what I’ve seen so far. Did you see the Southampton game? Look, he’s a young player and I would keep him in the squad.”Scholes has also expressed concerns over Kobbie Mainoo as he thinks he is lost and managers are unsure of what his best position is.He highlighted a problem with his athleticism, saying: “I think Mainoo is lost. I’ve talked about Declan Rice being lost before – I think Mainoo is lost as well. They don’t know what to do with him.”I don’t think he knows where to play on a football pitch because he’s been played in one of the number 10 positions, he has been played in the two in the midfield, which I can see probably doesn’t suit him because I don’t think the greatest athlete.”He’s a great footballer. I think the No 10 does suit, (but) the false nine, never in a million years.” More

Madrid’s defensive crisis followed by City’s weakness at the back means best form of defence attack – and both attacks aren’t bad.Kylian Mbappe to score: Frightening pace in the Madrid front three and Mbappe’s can punish City. Slow start to Madrid career but now scored in six of last eight games – scoring nine in that time including in Madrid derby at weekend.Mateo Kovacic to be carded: Midfield battle is huge and City likely without the ball more than they’d usually be. Booked in two of his last three home starts as he continues having to try and fill Rodri void. Aurelien Tchouameni to be carded: Will again provide cover for those missing defenders and will be tested at points. Pace and power of Haaland to cause issues, as will new boy Omar Marmoush.

    Man City vs Real Madrid prediction: Free betting tips, odds and Champions League preview for play off first leg

    THE new Champions League format promised huge clashes earlier on in the competition and they certainly deliver that when Manchester City and Real Madrid meet on Tuesday.The pair flopped in the league phase, finishing outside the top eight and setting up this huge play-off clash for a spot in the last-16.So SunSport have enlisted the help of their betting experts to preview the European showdown and select the best bets, tips and exclusive sign-up bonuses from our leading betting partners.Find The Sun’s betting publishing principles hereNew sign-up offersSunSport exclusivesManchester City vs Real Madrid previewThe new format has thrown up a blockbuster clash and neither Manchester City nor Real Madrid would want this so early.City’s wretched form since that Spurs defeat in the League Cup in October likely makes them underdogs to progress here.They needed Kevin de Bruyne and Phil Foden to come off the bench to progress in the FA Cup at League One Leyton Orient at the weekend.The rather embarrassing scenes of the pair playing for time and taking the ball into the corner shows how fragile the side is at present.So it’s a good thing for them that Madrid arrive with a defensive injury crisis which was furthered at the weekend.Madrid arrive without Antonio Rudiger, David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Lucas Vazquex AND Eder Militao, with a new-look, makeshift back four set to play.However, they will still have a dynamic front line which is bound to cause this shaky City defence issues.It’s the fourth straight European competition that these sides have matched up in, with Madrid winning on penalties after a 4-4 score on aggregate in last season’s quarter finals.City had beaten them 4-0 and 4-3 on their previous two visits to the Etihad. With attack the best form of defence, those high scores could come into play again here.First scorer and correct score predictionsCorrect score: 2-2 at 9/1 with Betfred – HEREFirst scorer: Vinicius Jr 13/2 with talkSPORT BET – HEREMan City vs Real Madrid latest oddsOdds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.How to claim..William Hill £60 welcome bonusVisit the William Hill website HERE*Register an account using the Promo Code: T60Once your account is registered, click ‘opt in’ on the ‘Vegas Promotion’ pageDeposit a minimum of £10 in your main account to receive a £20 Vegas Bonus for use on Selected GamesThen place a bet with a minimum stake of £10 at odds of 1/2 or greater on any football marketOnce that’s settled, your account will be credited with £40 in free betsWilliam Hill: Claim £60 welcome bonus – click here*Man City vs Real Madrid predictions and tipsTchou are ya?This back four are going to be seriously tested, particularly against a Man City team who have to come out and go for it at home you’d think.That could put all sorts of pressure on Aurelien Tchouameni, who has filled in there plenty of times but it’s still not completely natural for him.The physical battle with Erling Haaland will test him, as will the likely speed out wide.

    Wayne Rooney tipped for return to management with British giants after Man Utd legend ‘puts himself out there’

    WAYNE ROONEY has been tipped for a return to management. The Manchester United legend was sacked by Plymouth in December after just seven months in charge. Wayne Rooney has been tipped for a return to managementCredit: GettyRooney – who retired in 2021 – has also had coaching stints with Derby, DC United and Birmingham previously. And despite losing his fourth coaching job in two years, the ex-England captain has not ruled out a return to management. It comes as former Scotland midfielder Derek Ferguson backed Rooney as an outsider to replace under-fire Rangers boss Philippe Clement. And the Scottish Premiership winner even claimed Rooney could sensationally team up with Steven Gerrard in the Rangers dugout. READ MORE IN football Ferguson, 57, told Ibrox News: “I quite like the fact that Rooney has put himself out there in terms of managerial jobs, albeit it’s not worked for him. “Imagine Gerrard coming back to the club as manager and Rooney as his assistant. Something crazy like that, you know?“The likes of Gerrard and Rooney, they’re football men. The one thing they have instantly is respect with the players.“Players will listen to guys like that, who have been there and done it. So who knows? Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS”It would be surreal, but nothing surprises you in football. I quite like the sound of that.”Gerrard’s first job as manager was with Rangers – from 2018-2021 – winning the league title in his final season. ‘It must be embarrassing,’ says Wayne Rooney as he opens up on seeing Marcus Rashford on visit to CarringtonHe then went to Aston Villa and most recently Al-Ettifaq in 2023 – since leaving the Saudi side in January. Rangers manager Clement is under pressure as the club sit second in the table – 13 points behind leaders Celtic.Rooney meanwhile told the Stick to Football podcast that he would open the door to a managerial return – with the right club. And he even admitted he would accept a role as assistant manager. He said: “I’d have no problem dropping into an Under-21 team or going in as a coach. “I’m still young enough to learn and develop. Just having a good group of players who were at a [good] level.”Rangers manager is under pressureCredit: GettyDerek Ferguson suggested Rooney as a contender for the Rangers job More
