8.60Tip and bets
Pathos has achieved all its successes in the current Champions League draw largely due to a well-organized defensive game. However, the Cypriots have not played against opponents of the Bayern level yet and are unlikely to be ready to oppose anything. The Munich team has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to open any defensive formations. Harry Kane is on fire right now, he has already scored 15 goals in eight official matches, for sure the defense of Paphos will not be a serious obstacle for him. We believe that the hosts will not be able to avoid a crushing defeat today.
