26th October 2022 – 21:00, Camp Nou, Barcelona
Barcelona and Bayern Munich will face each other in the derby match of the Champions League group stage 5th round. The hosts seek their third straight win, while the away side wants to continue their dominance against the Catalans.
Barcelona Preview & Team News
Barcelona, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following a 4-0 La Liga triumph against Athletic Bilbao. It was Barcelona’s second straight win, but they would need to repeat that to remain in the top-two race. Xavi Hernández’s Barcelona has scored 12 times over their prior six outings. The tally of goals that have been scored against them in those fixtures amounts to 7. Nevertheless, Barca needs to put an excellent display to beat Bayern after losing its last five games against this opponent. Andreas Christensen (Sprained ankle), Memphis Depay (Thigh Problems), and Ronald Araújo (Adductors avulsion) are not available for Barcelona manager Xavi Hernández.
Bayern Munich Preview & Team News
Bayern Munich will go into the game after a 2-0 Bundesliga win in the defeat of Hoffenheim in their last outing. The Bavarians celebrated their fourth straight win and want to pick up where they left off. Indicating their penchant for eventful matches, we’ve had goals 29 times in the previous six games in which Bayern Munich has played, making it an average of 4.83 goals in each meeting. Opposing teams have hit 6 of these goals. Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann has a number of players out of action. Lucas Hernández (Torn muscle bundle), Bouna Sarr (Knee Surgery), Manuel Neuer (Bruised Acromioclavicular), and Leroy Sané (Torn Muscle Fibre) won’t be making appearances.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
It is an important game for Barcelona, but the match can easily go either way. We think Bayern will remain undefeated in this outing, and Barcelona won’t manage to beat their rivals.
Goals Market Prediction
Although Barcelona failed to score against this rival three times in a row, we think it is time for Robert Lewandowski and the lads to find Bayern’s back of the net. Therefore, neither team should keep a clean sheet here.
