Bayern Munich vs Chelsea

Bayern Munich are aiming to maintain their strong start to the season when they host Chelsea in their opening fixture in the league phase of the UEFA Champions League.

The Blues are also looking solid this season but have stumbled slightly a few times. The Bavarians have the quality to punish any lapses and should begin with a win in front of their fans.

Bayern Munich News

Bayern Munich head into Wednesday's clash with a 100% record, having won all five of their matches across all competitions this season. They claimed a 5-0 victory over Hamburger SV in a German Bundesliga fixture last weekend, with Harry Kane netting a brace.

Once again, Kane has been at the heart of Bayern Munich’s fine showings this season having scored eight goals across all competitions so far. The Bavarians’ overall attack has been solid, with all five of their matches this term producing over 2.5 goals.

Home form is often vital for Bayern Munich, who will be keen to give their fans something to cheer about. The victory over Hamburger SV means Vincent Kompany's team have now won their last four competitive matches at the Allianz Arena.

Chelsea News

Chelsea travel to Munich off the back of a 2-2 draw at Brentford in an English Premier League fixture last Saturday. They looked to be headed for a win following Cole Palmer’s second-half effort off the bench but went on to concede an injury-time equaliser.

While Chelsea are still unbeaten this season, they have stumbled more than once, playing out a 0-0 home draw with Crystal Palace in their opening Premier League fixture. Manager Enzo Maresca will be keen to avoid any lapses that could be punished by the hosts on Wednesday.

Chelsea often look sharp going forward and like the hosts, they have no problems finding the net. Two of their last three matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Bayern Munich have only lost once in this fixture, claiming four wins and two draws from seven previous matches against Chelsea. The last meeting between both teams was a Champions League clash in 2020, which ended 4-1 in favour of the Germans.

Verdict

Bayern Munich v Chelsea

Bayern Munich have a superior record against Chelsea and will also be feeling confident, having won all five of their matches this season. The Germans are particularly solid at home and should claim the upper hand here.

Both teams often adopt an open style and with all five of Bayern Munich’s matches producing over 2.5 goals, a repeat could be considered. Beyond his fine showings this season, Kane has also scored eight times against Chelsea over the years and could be backed to find the net once again.
