Tottenham's prospects of producing an upset in their Audi Cup semi-final are aided by the blunting of Real Madrid's attack caused by Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema having to stay home to nurse injuries. By contrast, Spurs should head to the Allianz Arena reasonably close to full strength.

However, Rafael Benitez has been busy fixing what he got wrong at Napoli last season and tightening up his defence. The Sergio Ramos-led, Iker Casillas-shorn unit haven't conceded in open play in their last four fixtures, which is quite the feat given that Roma, Manchester City, Inter and AC Milan were the opposition.

Recommended Bet: Back Real Madrid to keep a clean sheet @ 2.30

Bayern Munich 1.36 v AC Milan 10.00; The Draw 5.40

That stereotype about Germans teams and penalties has taken a pounding in the past fortnight with the Bundesliga's best, Bayern Munich, losing successive shootouts to Guangzhou Evergrande and Wolfsburg, with Thomas Muller erring in the first and Xabi Alonso the fall guy in the second.

AC Milan lost a 12-yard clash of their own in Shanghai against Real Madrid to deny them China's International Champions Cup title, but will be highly satisfied with a summer that has brought them Carlos Bacca, Luiz Adriano and consecutive clean sheets against Inter and the ten-time European champions. If they are beaten at the Allianz Arena in this Audi Cup semi-final, it won't be by much.

Recommended Bet: Back under 2.5 goals @ 2.26

Chelsea 1.57 v Fiorentina 5.50; The Draw 4.30

An entire week after Paris St-Germain assumed an unassailable lead in the North America and Europe edition of the International Champions Cup, Chelsea and Fiorentina are tasked with bringing the curtain down at Stamford Bridge.

Jose Mourinho's men are an enticing lay for a number of reasons. The first is that theyhaven't won a match in this competition in 90 minutes, losing 4-2 to the New York Red Bulls before score-drawing with Paris St-Germain and Barcelona and defeating both on penalties.

The second is that Fiorentina are three days removed from beating the Champions League holders in Florence, with the third of course being that Chelsea fielded their strongest side on Sunday against Arsenal in the Community Shield, only to suffer another pre-season reverse.

Recommended Bet: Lay Chelsea to win @ 1.58
