FC Copenhagen vs Bayern Munich tips: German giants set to smash struggling Danes

Football tipster Sergiu Baltuta thinks Harry Kane can fire Bayern Munich to another emphatic victory on Tuesday.
The match in Denmark on Tuesday night is one of the most one-sided-looking fixtures in the second round of the Champions League group stage.
Bayern Munich is the heavy favourite in this group. In the first round, they defeated Manchester United 4-3 in a game that saw both teams score in extra time.
The hosts on Tuesday blew a golden chance in Matchday 1. They were up 2-0 in Istanbul, but in the 73rd minute, defender Jelert was shown a red card and Galatasaray managed to salvage a 2-2 draw.
Bayern Munich is a juggernaut in the Champions League group stage, where they have gone unbeaten in their last 35 games.
Furthermore, the German champions have won 14 consecutive matches in the UEFA Champions League group stage.
Bayern's solidity in the Champions League is evident in the fact that they have kept a clean sheet in six of their last eight away wins in the competition.
Suggested bet: Bayern Munich to win to nil
It’s worth noting that Serge Gnabry, Matthijs de Liggt and Thomas Muller are doubts for Bayern’s trip to Denmark.
Last weekend, Thomas Tuchel’s team dodged a bullet in the away game against Leipzig, where they rescued a 2-2 draw after being two goals behind after only 26 minutes.
Even with that draw, Bayern dropped to third place in the Bundesliga with 14 points.
Once again Bayern’s hope will be on Harry Kane, who has scored at least once in the last five games played for Bayern and England.
Kane already scored in the Champions League against Manchester United and has eight goals in the Bundesliga.
Suggested bet: Bayern to win and Harry Kane to score
Despite losing 0-2 at home to Midtjylland last weekend, Copenhagen are still top of the Danish league.
The Lions are struggling at home as they have only two wins in the last six official games played at home.
Despite this, it is intriguing to note that they drew all of their home games in the Champions League group stage last season and have gone unbeaten in their last six home games in the competition.
That shouldn’t matter too much against Bayern Munich who will have too much quality and firepower for the Danes to handle.
Suggested bet: Bayern Munich to win both halves
