Real Madrid’s trip to Bayern Munich for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final is Tuesday night’s showpiece match, while Ipswich will look to maintain promotion to the Championship at Coventry and we are a long way from the second tier Swedish.

The bet of the day
Coventry win or draw against Ipswich – 20/21
Ipswich would return to the automatic promotion positions in the Championship with a point or more at Coventry, but a win could be beyond the Tractor Boys after a difficult few weeks.
The visitors, who have been so impressive throughout the season, allowed Hull to come back from three goals down at the weekend to extend their winless streak to four games, and the only thing still keeping them in the race to automatic promotion is Leeds’ simultaneous capitulation.
Coventry’s play-off dreams are over and their recent results have been poor, but they picked up a point on Saturday and could prove a threat to Ipswich as they look to finish the season strongly.
The Sky Blues have lost just three of their last 17 games at the Coventry Building Society Arena and their last victory here saw them defeat Leeds.
They appear to be a good price to damage another team’s promotion hopes when they meet on Tuesday.
Special of the day
BetBuilder – Harry Kane and Rodrygo will score at any time – 6/1
Bayern Munich may have lost the Bundesliga title for the first time in over a decade, but no one can blame summer signing Harry Kane for their dismal domestic campaign.
The England international has scored an incredible 42 goals for Bayern since signing, including seven in the Champions League.
He scored another brace against Eintracht Frankfurt this weekend to make it 14 goals in his last 13 competitive outings. He will therefore pose a major threat to Real Madrid in the first leg at the Allianz Arena.
Los Blancos are not without goal threats, however, and while much of Bayern’s attention will be focused on Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham, another Brazilian could be the best bet to get on the scoresheet.
Rodrygo has scored 17 goals for Real this season and five of them in the Champions League, including crucial goals in both legs of their quarter-final win over Manchester City.
That makes four goals in his last four outings for his club, and he can add another to his tally in Munich.

Skövde AIK beats Oddevold – 2/1
The 2024 Swedish Superettan season is four games long and, with these two teams separated by only goal difference, underdogs Skovde could edge out their visitors on Tuesday.
The hosts have taken four points from their two home matches so far and, looking at last season, they have dropped just two points from their last seven games at the Boras Arena.
Oddevold, returning to the second division for the first time since 1997, lost to Landskrona in their last away match and could fall to Boras again.
