That can include the amount of goals in the game, whether both teams will score or not, specific goalscorers — anytime, first or last scorer — as well as a range of options on statistics such as cards, corners and individual player or team shots and shots on target.
4. Do your research
In order to bet effectively, and especially if you are looking to do something with specific individual players, it is essential that you do your own research into both sides.
This will involve looking at the form guide of the two sides as well as injury and team news — you don't want to back a player to score who isn’t even in the starting line-up or squad, for example!

Champions League Final 2025 PSG vs. Inter: Tips, prediction and latest odds
Double Chance: Inter Milan to win or draw (betway, 7/10 – best odds)
PSG have, as mentioned, been magnificent to watch this season as they romped through the knockout stages with victories against Liverpool, Aston Villa and Arsenal. They found things tough in the league stage but Luis Enrique eventually worked out the perfect system and style to balance all their competitions in the second half of the campaign – and the form of the likes of Vitinha, Joao Neves, Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been particularly important.
Inter are often more resolute, although that wasn’t the case in their thrilling 7-6 aggregate semi-final victory over La Liga winners Barcelona, the Italians winning after extra time in the second-leg at San Siro.
Inzaghi’s side have often struggled through fatigue this season, with the former Lazio boss and his players regularly complaining about the amount of football they have played, but their determination and elite management of games has allowed them to reach a second Champions League final in three seasons.
That resilience marks them out as slight favourites in our eyes, and we expect PSG’s likely dominance of the ball to present openings on the counter for Inter.
The Italians' sturdy defence should be able to cope with the ball in front of them for the majority of the game, rather than in-behind like Barca were able to exploit.
We're taking Inter to get the job done in Munich, and the double-chance draw/win is a very good option, even if the price is short.
