Welcome to this week's PREDICT picks, where we break down the most exciting prediction markets available on Duelbits Predict. This is it, the Champions League semi-final second legs. PSG edged Bayern Munich 5-4 in the highest-scoring semi-final in Champions League history, while Arsenal drew 1-1 at Atlético Madrid after a VAR-dominated encounter where two penalties were scored and a third was overturned. Tonight, Arsenal host Atlético at the Emirates. Tomorrow, Bayern welcome PSG to the Allianz Arena needing to overturn a one-goal deficit against the defending champions.
Meanwhile, Iran's ceasefire talks have stalled, the US delegation cancelled its trip to Pakistan, Islamabad took down its security checkpoints, and Iran pitched a new proposal that defers nuclear negotiations entirely. Trump extended the ceasefire indefinitely but maintains the naval blockade. New markets have launched on the next Real Madrid manager, the Ballon d'Or, the PFA Player of the Year, and US politics.
Viktor Gyökeres blasted Arsenal ahead from the penalty spot just before half-time after being brought down by David Hancko. Julián Álvarez equalised from the spot after Ben White was penalised for handball, before Arsenal had a late penalty overturned by VAR when Eberechi Eze went down.
Arsenal remain the only unbeaten team in this Champions League with ten wins and three draws in 13 matches. A packed Emirates awaits.

A major new market — the Real Madrid managerial position is apparently under discussion:

Market: PFA Players' Player of the Year
Bruno Fernandes break EPL assists record? - Yes: 1.50 / No: 2.50
Trump extended the ceasefire indefinitely on April 21, giving Iran three to five days to engage in negotiations. But the US delegation cancelled its trip to Pakistan and Islamabad took down its security checkpoints, signalling no immediate hope of talks.
