Bayern Munich v Manchester City – Verdict
Do you want to see a high-scoring fixture? You’ve come to the right place.
With Bayern Munich 3-0 down after the opening leg, Thomas Tuchel’s men have no alternative but to go on the front foot from the opening minute.
That is certainly music to Pep Guardiola’s music ears as his men will more than welcome the opportunity to play counter-attacking football with a certain Erling Haaland featuring at the top of the field.
It’s fair to say that Tuchel has endured a rough start to his tenure as Bayern boss.
The former Chelsea manager has won just one of his last four games and is on the brink of exiting his second competition this month.
A 2-1 defeat to Freiburg ended Bayern’s run in the DFB Pokal and Man City could now do the same in the Champions League.
Defence is a big problem for the Bavarians, who have conceded six goals in their last four games. Their attack is not that much better, considering they’ve scored three goals in that same period of time.
Away from the form book, tensions appear to be simmering in the Bayern squad with Sadio Mane and Leroy Sane involved in a physical confrontation following the first leg in Manchester.
It’s fair to say that if City fail to progress, it would represent a monumental collapse.
City have everything in their favour and will arrive in Munich in the midst of a 10-match winning run.
From a betting perspective, we’re backing a goal-fest. With Bayern needing goals and City more than happy to oblige with counter-attacks, both teams should get on the scoresheet.
A 2-2 draw in the correct score market offers enticing odds. We also like the current price on Erling Haaland to get among the goals.
