Atletico Madrid face Bayern Munich in the Champions League, with Double Chance on Atletico Madrid recommended. Atletico are unbeaten in their last nine matches, conceding only one goal in their last five, and have a strong home record. Bayern Munich are also unbeaten this season but have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven games and are dealing with several injuries, including doubts over Manuel Neuer and Michael Olise. Given Atletico's defensive form and Bayern's vulnerabilities, the hosts are tipped to avoid defeat.

Atletico Madrid are in great form, especially defensively with one goal conceded in five games. Bayern Munich represent a big step up in class, but I don’t see the Spanish side losing at home.

Key Stats


  • Atletico Madrid are undefeated in their last 9 matches.
  • Atletico Madrid have won 8 of their last 9 matches.
  • Atletico Madrid are undefeated in 3 home matches against Bayern Munich.
  • Bayern Munich are undefeated in their last 19 matches.
  • Bayern Munich have seen BTTS in their last 7 matches.
  • Bayern Munich have drawn 4 of their last 7 matches.

HTH


These club have met on eight occasions, the first coming in the 1974 European Cup final. Bayern lead 4-2 alongside two draws.

Atletico Hard to Beat


Atletico Madrid suffered back to back defeats in September but haven’t lost since. They have won eight of their previous nine matches, the only blip coming in a 1-1 draw at Stuttgart.

Diego Simeone’s side have only won once in the Champions League, defeating Manchester United 2-0 in Spain.

Atletico are flying high in La Liga thanks to having the best defence. They have reeled off seven straight victories, the previous three with clean sheets.

Bayern Leaking Goals


Bayern Munich are yet to lose this season, earning nine wins and five draws. They thrashed Bodo/Glimt 5-0 in the Champions League before a 3-3 draw at Viking and 2-2 draw against Arsenal.

Vincent Kompany’s side destroyed Magdeburg 6-1 in the German Cup but their inability to keep clean sheets is becoming an issue.

The Bavarians took the lead twice against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday but couldn’t close it out. They hit the woodwork on three occasions including Harry Kane from the penalty spot, conceding in the 89th minute in a 2-2 draw.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Atletico Madrid (4-4-2) Jan Oblak; Marcos Llorente, Marc Pubill, David Hancko, Álex Grimaldo; Giuliano Simeone, Pablo Barrios, Rodrigo Mendoza, Álex Baena; Lee Kang-in, Julián Alvarez

Atletico have some issued in midfield with Johnny Cardoso and Koke injured and Morten Hjulmand suspended. Expect Rodrigo Mendoza to come into the starting side.

Lee Kang-in could continue partnering Julián Alvarez up front with Jonathan David and Alexander Sorloth options off the bench.

Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1) Jonas Urbig; Konrad Laimer, Jonathan Tah, Dayot Upamecano, Nathaniel Brown; Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic; Michael Olise, Lennart Karl, Alphonso Davies; Harry Kane

Manuel Neuer remains doubtful which could see Jonas Urbig continue in goal. Michael Olise is doubtful after coming off late against Dortmund.

Jamal Musiala and Luis Díaz have been joined on the treatment table by Ismael Saibari and Serge Gnabry.

Jonathan Tah could replace Kim Min-Jae in central defence. Nathaniel Brown is expected to start at left-back with Alphonso Davies playing on the wing.

Verdict

Bayern Munich don’t lose very often but injuries and a suspect defence are big concerns in this one. I think the German club will be content to avoid defeat at Atletico Madrid.
