Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea Odds
Game Preview
Bayern trashed Hamburger SV to make a perfect intro for the opening game of the UCL campaign. It was 5-0 for Kompany’s boys, who looked well against the rival, who, to be honest, is a modest and very limited unit. However, this is the fifth consecutive win for Bayern.
In all of them, the German champions have managed to score twice or more, and all but one of the matches have seen over 4.5 goals. It is the way Bayern plays, with the note that they posted just two clean sheets during that span.
Chelsea disappointed in Brentford. After having three points in their pocket and coming back from behind, the Blues allowed the rivals to level the score at 2-2 and waste two valuable points.
Even though Maresca’s unit didn’t lose in the last 11 consecutive matches, this is a big blow for them and a sign of inconsistency. Chelsa’s attack is doing well, and that’s a big plus. Over these 11 games, the team from London netted twice or more just 10 times.
Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea Head to Head
In 2012, Chelsea won the UCL title following a penalty shootout. The last time these two sides met was in the 2020 UCL campaign when Bayern rolled over Chelsea, 4-1 at home and 0-3 on the road.
Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea Predictions
The home team likes to play open and press the rivals, while the guests also have a very efficient attack. That’s why we pick over 1.5 goals in the second half.
