It wasn’t a great game to be fair, as caution seemed to be the order of the day for both. Bayern are currently on a four-match winning streak at home against English opposition. This will be their seventh game against Liverpool. From the previous head to head, things are even at one win each and five drawn matches.

Liverpool News and Form

Liverpool’s record at the round of sixteen in the Champions League stands at W5 L1. They weren’t particularly adventurous at home in the first leg. Was that a bit of an oversight by them? The Reds are undefeated in their last seven games in the round of sixteen, winning five of them and they have not shipped a single goal at this stage since the 2006/07 season. The last time that Liverpool were up against Bundesliga opposition was in last season’s playoffs when they posted a 6-3 aggregate win over Hoffenheim.

The Reds have a superb W14 L2 record from sixteen previous two-legged ties against German sides. They have won each of their last four such ties. Liverpool have avoided defeat in each of their last four visits to Germany (W2 L2). They don’t have a particularly great record in Germany in their history. It is at W3 D9 L5 so the wins have been few and far between. Liverpool were on a three-match winning streak against German opposition before the first leg of this tie.

The Reds are undefeated in their last nine against German sides (W6 L3). In this season’s group stage, they had a rough time of things on their travels, losing all three games at Napoli, PSG and Red Star Belgrade. That has stacked up to four straight away defeats from Liverpool in European action. Liverpool, home and away, have lost five of their last nine European games, all of those defeats happening outside of England. Liverpool are W3 L4 from previous ties after having drawn the first leg at home.
