Bayern Munich won a high-octane Champions League quarter-final first leg against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu last Tuesday and will be confident of completing the job at their beloved Allianz Arena in Wednesday’s contest.

Goals from Luis Diaz and Harry Kane guided the Bavarians to a 2-1 victory in the Spanish capital, with Kylian Mbappe’s consolation strike keeping Madrid in the hunt.

Both teams registered 20 shots in the opening showdown and given the attacking talent on show, it should be much more of the same on German soil.

Bayern are 12 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga and they have been flexing their attacking muscles, racking up 105 goals in 29 league fixtures.

Madrid have work to do in LaLiga as they trail Barcelona by nine points, but they are the most decorated team in Champions League history with 15 titles and should never be written off.

Team news

Bayern’s teenage talent Lennart Karl remains sidelined alongside back-up goalkeeper Sven Ulreich while Hiroki Ito will be assessed.

Madrid are missing first-choice goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and Brazilian winger Rodrygo through injury while Aurelien Tchouameni is suspended after his first-leg yellow card.

The stats

Bayern are unbeaten in 15 matches and have won 13 of those games.

Madrid have failed to win any of their last three matches and they have lost five of their last 10 road outings.

Both teams have scored in nine of Madrid’s last 11 fixtures.

Bayern have scored three or more goals in five of their last six home victories.

Ten of Bayern’s last 11 games have gone over 2.5 goals.

Both teams have scored in each of the last eight meetings between these two teams.

Bayern hotshot Harry Kane has scored 54 goals in 46 games for club and country this season.

Prediction

Bayern oozed class in last week’s 2-1 win in Madrid and they should be able to repeat the feat at the Allianz Arena, where they have triumphed in all five Champions League fixtures this season with 16 goals scored.

Vincent Kompany’s side have been Europe’s most explosive outfit and Saturday’s 5-0 victory at St Pauli should ensure confidence levels remain sky high.

There were 40 shots, 17 of which hit the target, in an entertaining first leg and Madrid are forced to go on the front foot with Mbappe and Vinicius Junior carrying the scoring threat.

Just two clean sheets in their last 10 matches shows that Bayern can be got at but Real have recorded only one shut out in their last 11 outings and are regularly exploited defensively.

With no Courtois to bail them out, Bayern should be able to edge another lively affair and Friday’s 1-1 draw with Girona has come on the back of 2-1 losses to the German outfit and Mallorca.
