PSG vs Inter: Get £50 in free bets with Betfred, plus our 66/1 bet builder tips

PSG and Inter meet in a blockbuster Champions League final on Saturday. To mark the occasion, our team of betting experts has put together a 66/1 Bet Builder for the big game, courtesy of Betfred. And there's more - new customers who sign up with Betfred and place a £10 bet on football will receive £50 in free sports bets. 1 PSG vs Inter Our Bet Builder selections: Desire Doue 2+ shots on target, Hakan Calhanoglu and Alessandro Bastoni to be carded and over 3.5 goals. Here's why we've made those selections... Desire Doue 2+ shots on target: The teenage star has been a revelation this year and would be in conversation for young player of the year, if it weren't for a certain 17-year-old at Barcelona. Registered two assists last time out against Reims. Has 13 shots on target in Champions League, registering at 1.95 per 90 minutes. Could have big part to play. Calhanoglu and Bastoni to be booked: Calhanoglu a huge price for a player booked in every one of last four starts - and five yellows in last seven games. Bastoni tasked with stopping Ousmane Dembele and was booked in last UCL tie with Barca. Over 3.5 goals: The rate at which goals were flying in in Inter's semi final was incredible and no reason they should change style here. Same with PSG, they're better going forward than defensively, highlighted with scoring 10 goals in last three games.
