Champions League picks for Real Madrid vs. Bayern

Before you tune in to Tuesday's match, you need to see the UEFA Champions League picks from SportsLine soccer expert Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since the World Cup, Green has been profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including the Champions League (+4.78 units), the FA Cup (+3.07), the EFL Cup (+3.64), Euro 2024 qualifiers (+3.01) and the Europa League (+1.60).

For Bayern vs. Real Madrid, Green is picking both teams to score and for Over 2.5 goals to hit for a -110 payout. Los Blancos are on an 18 game unbeaten streak and haven't been held without a goal since a scoreless draw against Rayo Vallecano on Nov. 5. The expert notes they only need a draw in the first leg of this matchup since they second leg is in Madrid, but he likes them to score in Tuesday's match.

Bayern are dealing with several injuries that could hurt them in their quest for a UCL title, but they should be laser focused since the Champions League is their only chance of winning a trophy this season. Since they won't be winning a Bundesliga title or the DFB Pokal this year, Thomas Tuchel will have his best scorers on the pitch on Tuesday.

"There will be a wealth of attacking talent on the pitch, with Harry Kane, Thomas Müller and Jamal Musiala taking on Vinícius Júnior, Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham. It promises to be an entertaining game between two elite teams," Green told SportsLine. Stream the game here and check out full soccer coverage on CBS Sports Golazo Network.
