UEFA Champions League Final: Man City v Inter Milan
Watch live: BT Sport 1
Despite clumsy attempts from FIFA to try and build up World Club Football, there can be little doubt that the UEFA Champions League final is the pinnacle of club football every season.
This is the reason why the Manchester City owners have been so keen over the last decade to continue to back Pep Guardiola and the whole City Group operation, to try and get themselves to the very top of the club game. Now, only Internazionale stand in their way of ultimate triumph.
It is the Italian club that actually have the weight of history on their side in this tie. It is Inter that are the club that have won the Champions League before, in 2010 under Jose Mourinho, Inter’s own treble triumph. This added to their European Cup titles in the 1960s. Inter also have three UEFA Cups in their trophy cabinet, as well as the aforementioned Club World Cup from 2010 as well. Manchester City are mere whippersnappers on the European top table in comparison.
And yet. It is City who are undoubted favourites heading into the final. They are the shortest-priced favourites for a European final for some time and punters must decide whether they are with or against them. Value can be found in the market either way, and research has pointed towards some key areas to attack even if one wants to be with Manchester City.
City’s previous final appearance in the Champions League came two years ago. Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea side did a number of Guardiola’s troops that night and emerged 1-0 victors. Simone Inzaghi and his coaching staff may look to some key principles from that performance, but Guardiola has evolved his model still further from 2021 so it will be fascinating to see how the tactical battle is fought at the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul.
Using research from previous Champions League finals and the two teams themselves, we have a couple of value bets with our partners Paddy Power and their excellent bet builder function. The more daring can chance the 50/1+ beast but there is also a more modest option for other punters listed below.

UEFA Champions League Final Cheat Sheet

The above Cheat Sheet breaks down easily all of the stats ahead of Saturday's clash in Istanbul. However, readers can find an even more comprehensive breakdown over in our Cheat Sheet & Stats Breakdown article here.
Form of past Champions League Finals

Looking over the past ten Champions League finals there are some really interesting trends that come out of the showpiece.
The last three finals have all ended 1-0 after 90 minutes. These 1-0’s have taken different forms, Real Madrid won last year with only three shots and one on target versus 23 shots of Liverpool, whereas Bayern took more shots and landed more on target against PSG in 2020.
Liverpool won 2-0 in 2019 with two early goals against Tottenham, making it the last four finals under 2,5 goals and BTTS No. However, just to confuse matters, the previous six finals, from 2013-2018 saw all of the teams scoring.
Extra time has been something of a rarity of late. Only two of the last ten finals have finished tied after 90 minutes, and both of those were all Madrid affairs.
Overall, the mean number of goals per final has been a mere 2.08 over the last decade. With over 2.5 landing only four times and Both Teams To Score landed six out of ten, though as discussed, not in the last four.
In terms of cards it has been something of a feast or famine coming from the referee’s pocket in the Champions League finals. Four of the last five finals have seen under 3.5 total cards land, including the 2019 final that saw no cards given whatsoever.
The common theme of all of those four finals with few cards is that at least one English team was involved in the final. The 2020 PSG v Bayern final saw four cards on each side and was a complete contrast from a disciplinary perspective.
The only other Italian team to reach a final in the last decade was Juventus, they received four cards in 2017 and two in 2015.
Another interesting point to make is that, similar to the Europa League finals in the last decade, is that when the total number of cards goes over 3.5, as it has in four of the last ten, it has also gone over 4.5. It is perhaps worthwhile going big if cards are a fancy in this tie, this was also the case in Wednesday’s Conference League final with six given out between Fiorentina and West Ham.
The referee for the final is Poland’s Szymon Marciniak. He has refereed eight Champions League ties this season and averaged 3.86 yellows per match. Extending this to his all-time Champions League and the average drops, only slightly, to 3.79.
The final point to make is that the average number of shots taken per team in the 90 minutes of the final is 10.5, with 3.96 on target. Four of the last six finalists haven’t managed 10 shots, but Liverpool hit the highest number of shots on record last year as well at 23.
Taking all of the trends and research into account there is a really interesting value bet with Paddy Power.
