Analysis of their previous 6 games shows that Aston Villa have conceded in 5 of them while also getting on the scoresheet in 6 of those matches. With no two games being the same, we’ll just have to find out if that pattern might continue on in this game.

ℹ️ Team News: Aston Villa

Jaden Philogene (Knock), Tyrone Mings (Cruciate ligament tear) and Boubacar Kamara (Knee injury) won’t be available for Aston Villa manager Unai Emery.

It looks as if The Villans look set to use a 4-2-3-1 system for this game featuring Emiliano Martinez, Ezri Konsa, Diego Carlos, Pau Torres, Lucas Digne, Amadou Onana, Youri Tielemans, Leon Bailey, Morgan Rogers, Jacob Ramsey and Ollie Watkins.

📰 Team News: Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany has to currently contend with reduced team options. Josip Stanisic (Torn lateral knee ligament), Tarek Buchmann (Fitness), Hiroki Ito (Metatarsal fracture) and Sacha Boey (Meniscus tear) are not able to play.

We are inclined to think that Bayern might elect for a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting the game with Manuel Neuer, Raphael Guerreiro, Dayot Upamecano, Min-Jae Kim, Alphonso Davies, Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Michael Olise, Jamal Musiala, Serge Gnabry and Harry Kane.

💭 Prediction

Our thinking is that Aston Villa have it in them to breach the defence of this Bayern Munich team, however a single goal possibly won’t be enough to avoid a loss.

Therefore, we think that it’s going to be a tight encounter finishing with a 1-2 win for Bayern Munich at the end of the match. It will be interesting to see how this one goes.
