Bayern Munich – Atleitco Madrid
The European kings Bayern Munich host Atleitco Madrid at the Allianz Arena in a match from the group stage of the Champions League. This game promises to be absolutely stunning, so let’s take a look at it.
Five trophies won from five possible – this is Bayern Munich’s marvelous 2020 so far. The manager Hansi Flick transformed the Bavarians into the strongest team on the continent again and let them to their 6th title in the Champions League. Bayern Munich showed some really impressive football in the last year.
Now Bayern Munich are starting their way to the 7th European crown. In Group A they are one of the two major favourites for progression alongside Atletico Madrid. That’s why this game on Wednesday looks like a key fixture in the fight for the first place.
In their last game in the Bundesliga Hansi Flick’s boys faced Arminia Bielefeld away from home and enjoyed a dominant 4-1 win. Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller scored braces for the visitors and even recorded some assists. Javi Martinez, Alphonso Davies, Jerome Boateng and Douglas Costa started from the bench against Arminia, but it won’t be surprising if we see them as starters against Atletico.
Atletico Madrid also won their last game in the Spanish La Liga. Los Colchoneros faced Celta in Vigo and celebrated a comfortable 2-0 win at the Balaidos. The summer signing Luis Suarez scored his third goal for the season while in the last few seconds Yannick Carrasco scored the second one.
We expect the best of football when Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid face each other at the Allianz Arena in the Champions League. The current kings of the competition will face one of the usual contenders for the prestigious trophy. At this moment Bayern are probably the best team in the world, so Atletico are the underdogs, that’s for sure.
