For the 5th matchday of the 3rd group of the UEFA Champions League, Barcelona welcomes Bayern Munich to the Camp Nou in Barcelona.
Barcelona failed to get a win in 2 matches against Inter, with whom they were competing for the 2nd place in the group, and are now looking for a miracle to get the qualification to the next stage of the competition. In the first match in Italy, they lost 1-0, while in the second, which was the most recent, after an exciting match, the two teams drew 3-3.
So after 4 matches Barcelona is in 3rd place with 4 points against Inter's 7 which a few hours earlier welcomes Viktoria Plzen in Milan and with a victory it also formally secures 2nd place.
In the Spanish championship comes from two consecutive easy wins, last Thursday over Villarreal 3-0 and Bilbao on Sunday 4-0 and after 11 matches they are in 2nd place with 28 points, 3 less than the first Real.
As expected, Bayern made two easy wins in consecutive matches against Viktoria Plzen and sealed their qualification to the next phase of the competition. In the first match in Germany he prevailed with an emphatic 5-0, while in the second match in the Czech Republic it was much easier than the final 4-0 shows.
Having the absolute victory in 4 matches, they are the absolute favorite for the first place in the group, a win today secures it otherwise a draw in the last game against Inter in Munich will be enough.
Last Saturday, Bayern easily beat Hoffenheim away from home with 2-0, a score he built up from the first half. With this victory reached 22 points and after 11 matches they are in 2nd place in the standings, one less than Union Berlin.
A match that logic says will not be of any interest as Inter will have won against Viktoria Plzen earlier. This will mean elimination for Barcelona and the motivation will be only for Bayern to secure the first place in the group from today. Both, however, have tremendous quality and rich talent and can give us matches with a beautiful spectacle.
Tip: Barcelona - Bayern Over 1,5 goals in both halves with an odds of 3,40
