A quick no nonsense review of the Champions League Final. We provide the best betting opportunities and prices to go with them, from the final result to first goalscorer, correct score and scorecast, you will find the best bet here.
The end of season finale pits Bayern Munich (playing at home) and Chelsea in the Champions league final. Both defences have disruptions especially Chelsea's. Terry and Ivanovic are missing from the back line and Luiz and Cahill are struggling to be fit. Even if they start, there's a strong possibility of one or maybe both not finishing. Chelsea will also be missing the defensive qualities of Ramires as well as Meireles. Bayern also have Badstubber, Gustavo and Alaba suspended. They won't have to rejig as much as Chelsea but it's still not their usual back four. If it's going to be lost in defence it means the strikers are going to have a field day, and it's Bayern that come out on top yet again. Their top 3 goal scorers have out gunned Chelsea's in the champion's league and domestically by a significant amount.

It's going to be difficult for Chelsea to stop the Germans top three marksmen who have a total of 69 goals between them compared to Chelsea's paltry 33.
Chuck in the fact that Bayern are playing in their home ground the ¾ appears to be a banker.
But the fact that a 10 man Chelsea failed to read the script in the semi final against Barcelona and come to Germany struggling to make an 18 man squad could see them triumph as the underdogs yet again. Liverpool managed to beat Roma in the Olympic stadium back in 2025 so why not Chelsea in 2025. The stakes are extra high as if Chelsea lose this final they don't just lose the 2025 final but also the 2025 final, as they won't have the chance of competing if they lose.
