Bayern Munich vs Club Brugge

, KO: 20:00 , Allianz Arena
Club Brugge

Long-standing records continue to fall with every Bayern Munich performance this season and the Bavarians have a new target when they face Club Brugge in the third round of the CL League Phase.

Bayern Munich tied Borussia Dortmund’s record of 11 wins in a row at the start of a season from a decade ago when they beat them in the latest edition of Der Klassiker on Saturday. And the likelihood of them rewriting history again on Tuesday is high, given that the Bavarians won 33 of their last 35 Champions League group stage fixtures.

The only reason for concern is Bayern’s defensive performance in the competition under Vincent Kompany. The Germans maintained only four clean sheets across 16 fixtures under Kompany, even conceding against minnows Pafos in the previous round.

As for Club Brugge, their season thus far has been mostly positive, with famous results like the 4-1 against Monaco in the opening round. But we should also keep in mind that there is an extreme gap in class between them and Bayern, and about a 750 million difference in the squad values. However, FCB scored at least once in 16 of their 17 fixtures this season across all competitions.

How the bookies view it: Total victory for the Bavarians

There is no point in discussing Bayern Munich’s odds, as the Bavarians will be favourites against any team in the world at the Allianz Arena. Nevertheless, you can currently pick them at 1/5. And if you believe that a miracle is possible, you can back Club Brugge to win at 12/1, while the draw is available at 11/2.

Recent head-to-head: 20 years since the last H2Hs

Bayern Munich and Club Brugge have met only twice in the past during the Champions League group stage in 2005/06, when the Bavarians won 1-0 at home before a 1-1 draw away in Belgium. You won’t find any useful information here, although we can note that Bayern have won all five other home matches against Belgian opponents they’ve had in the past.

Players to watch: Let Olise cook

Let’s step away from Harry Kane for this fixture, although he is probably going to score again. With 19 goals and three assists in 11 appearances this season, he is the most in-form player in Europe, but the odds for him to score are just 2/5.

Instead, we will back Michael Olise to score or assist in this match, as he continues to be one of the main reasons for Bayern’s success. He assisted in both CL matches to date and the odds are still surprisingly high – 6/5 for him to score and 27/20 to assist. You can decide which pick makes more sense, but we’re definitely going for the assist first.

Probable line-ups

Bayern Munich: Neuer, Guerreiro, Kim, Upamecano, Laimer, Pavlovic, Kimmich, Diaz, Kane, Olise, Jackson

Club Brugge: Jackers, Sabbe, Mechele, Ordonez, Meijer, Stankovic, Vanaken, Forbs, Sandra, Tzolis, Tresoldi

Anything else catch the eye?

With 41 goals scored across 11 fixtures this season, it is impossible not to expect an outright Bayern Munich win once more. The Bavarians scored 3+ goals in 9/11 matches this season, with nearly half of those goals scored by Harry Kane.

And while the Over 2.5/3.5 odds are not ideal, there is more value in the BTTS market. The gap in class is obvious, but Bayern Munich tend to slow down and concede after scoring a few goals first, and their defensive performance in the CL has not been exactly spectacular under Kompany.
