The Bayern-Real Champions League clash could be surprisingly peaceful
The German-Spanish battle needs a French spor. Let’s see what could be the best flat tips!
With five matches left in the 2023/24 Champions League season, the paper is strictly Real Madrid-PSG final. Bayern Munich, of course, will be the first to have a few words on Tuesday night. Let’s take a look at this meeting, through yellow and red glasses of course.
Clément Turpin, a fellow French sportsman, will be conducting tonight at the Allianz Arena, and of course he needs no introduction. The referee for the 2022 final could be a good omen for Real Madrid, as Vinícius’ goal in Paris won the trophy for Spain against Liverpool, but the record of Madrid with the experienced Gallic skipper is flattering anyway.
Turpin has so far led Real in 6 Champions League games, all of which have been won by the Los Blancos.
Interestingly, in these meetings, Spain received the most cautions overall, 12-9.
In Munich, the 41-year-old referee needs no introduction, with 5 wins and 2 draws for the Leather Shorts, and it was Turpin’s assist that saw Bayern score 7 goals against Tottenham and Salzburg – but that’s really just for interest, otherwise he has no role. In other words, if one were to bet on the final result, then give yourself a draw at @3.60 for both sides to remain unbeaten with Turpin.
With the yellows having been nil prior to the semi-finals, no one has to fear a ban, which is why only Carvajal will be missing, while Tchouameni could return to the starting line-up.
Hard defending is not a bread and butter for either team, Real had 210 minutes with 4 yellows against City, while Bayern received the same number of yellows against Arsenal.
It’s not particularly significant, but Real Madrid won the first leg of the 2018 semi-final 2-1, with only 3 yellows in the match, including a booing from Dutchman Kuipers. What a surprise, Casemiro was yellow for Madrid.
On 22bet’s 4.5 line, bettors have opted for the under, so a minimum 5-card game is now available at close to 2.20, but we wouldn’t think that way. We’re offering two picks for this clash, and if one of them wins, we’ll end up in the plus.

We don’t think it will be a tough encounter, despite the “freedom” of the players to get yellow cards. Turpin has a tendency to lead games generously, and if the players are partners in this, it’s not out of the question to run this game off with 1-2 cautions.
