🔎 Bradley Barcola – Over 1 Shot on Target
The first leg of this bet involves Bradley Barcola registering at least two efforts on target — something well within reach considering his recent output and position in PSG’s attacking shape.
Having secured a starting role on the wing in recent weeks, Barcola is playing with confidence and clarity. In PSG’s dominant display over Inter Miami, he operated high and wide, constantly making himself available in dangerous areas. With Ousmane Dembélé only just returning from injury and still lacking match sharpness, Barcola is expected to keep his spot on the left of Luis Enrique’s attacking trio alongside Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Désiré Doué.
The French winger thrives in one-on-one situations and is never shy to cut inside and shoot. His role often sees him drift centrally when Hakimi overlaps, and this inside-left corridor is exactly where Bayern have looked exposed in transitions — particularly with Alphonso Davies out injured. Bayern’s full-backs have had trouble containing pacey wide men, and Barcola’s dribbling ability could exploit Dayot Upamecano and Joshua Kimmich if they are drawn out of position.
Moreover, PSG are averaging over 70% possession in this tournament, meaning Barcola will see enough of the ball to create his own shooting opportunities. He has already recorded shots on target in two of his last three starts and, with Bayern’s high line, expect him to get in behind more than once.
In a match expected to produce goals and attacking movement from both sides, backing Barcola to test the goalkeeper at least twice is a value-driven selection.

🔎 Harry Kane – Over 2 Shots on Target
Harry Kane continues to show why he remains one of the most consistent strikers in world football. The England captain has bagged three goals in four Club World Cup appearances, including a brace in the 4-2 victory over Flamengo last week. In that match, he had several clear-cut chances and finished with multiple efforts on target — as per usual.
Kane’s game has evolved beyond being a poacher. He drops deep to link play, drifts into the channels, and shoots from distance when space opens up. What makes this bet particularly appealing is his ability to create his own shots, regardless of how tightly he’s marked. Against Flamengo, Bayern produced just four shots on target — and Kane accounted for half of them.
He’s also in line to take penalties and direct free kicks, giving him added paths to test Gianluigi Donnarumma. PSG’s defence has been solid — conceding just once in the tournament — but they have yet to face a striker as clinical and versatile as Kane in this campaign.

PSG vs Bayern Munich Ultimate Bet Builder Tip | |
15/2 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Bradley Barcola’s growing influence on PSG’s wing and Harry Kane’s consistent shot output make this a compelling combination. Both players are likely to see plenty of the ball and play key roles in a high-intensity match, offering smart value on shot markets with their current roles and team dynamics.
|
Furthermore, Bayern’s setup under Vincent Kompany relies heavily on quick transitions and high pressing. This system has allowed Kane to flourish in broken-play scenarios, picking up loose balls and shooting early. His understanding with Musiala and Goretzka has led to frequent service into the final third.
Given the gravity of the fixture, Kane will not be content with drifting on the edges of the game. He will be Bayern’s focal point, both tactically and statistically. Expect him to hit the target at least three times.
