Bayern Munich Preview – Bayern On Top Again?
Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich are undefeated this season in all competitions.
They have posted six wins in nine matches and haven’t been shy in front of goal either.
Bayern have scored at least two goals in all but two of their fixtures this season.
So they clearly pose a threat in this fixture and the match odds support that.

From the three matches on home turf this season Bayern are W2 D1.
In the opening round of this season’s Champions League group stage, the Germans took a win.
They went to the San Siro and walked away with a 2-0 success over Inter.
That means that Bayern Munich have lost only two of their last 32 matches in the UEFA Champions League.

They have won 7 of their last 8 against the La Liga giants.
In each of their last three against Barcelona, Bayern have been winning at both half time and full time.
The Bundesliga champions have scored at least 3 goals in each of their last four against Barca as well.

Barcelona have scored at least three goals in each of their last five matches in all competitions.
So they have some strong form for this visit to Germany.
