Flamengo vs Bayern Munich

A place in the quarter-finals is the prize as Flamengo battle Bayern Munich in the round of 16 of the FIFA Club World.

The Brazilians have shown they can hold their own against European opposition and should make things difficult here. However, having rested key players last time out, the Bavarians are set to welcome back the big guns, who should give them the upper hand in this one.

Flamengo News

It has been an impressive showing from the Brazilians at the Club World Cup and Flamengo have been at the front of that line. They qualified unbeaten for the round of 16, finishing top of Group D, above Premier League giants Chelsea.

Flamengo showed they can hold their own against top European sides after earning a 3-1 victory over Chelsea in their second group fixture. However, they will head into this clash off the back of a 1-1 draw with Los Angeles FC in their previous outing.

Wallace Yan has caught the eye for Flamengo in this competition, scoring in the last two matches. The midfielder appears to be enjoying manager Felipe Luiz's open style of play, which has seen two of the last four matches produce over 2.5 goals.

Bayern Munich News

Bayern Munich are in the round of 16 after finishing second in Group C behind Benfica. They suffered a 1-0 defeat to the Portuguese side in their final fixture of the first round.

While a win would have been the preferred outcome, manager Vincent Kompany will be keen to put some context to the result as Bayern Munich rested a number of key players. They had been unbeaten in their previous nine matches, with a 10-0 victory over Auckland City in their opening Group C fixture among their results.

Key players like Harry Kane, Michael Olise, Kingsley Coman and Jamal Musiala are all set to return after being rested last time out. They should bring the quality to a Bayern Munich attack that has scored first in four of the last five matches while three of the last four fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

There are no previous matches between Flamengo and Bayern Munich.

Verdict

Flamengo v Bayern Munich

Flamengo have already beaten Chelsea in this competition and will be feeling confident heading into this clash. However, Bayern Munich have their top stars well rested and available, and they should have too much quality for the Brazilians.

Bayern Munich have the superior attack and should maintain their trend of scoring first. With three of their last four matches producing over 2.5 goals, a repeat could also be considered here.
