Match Overview
Bayern Munich and Lazio face off against each other in a match in the round of sixteen stage of the UEFA Champions League at the Allianz Arena in Munich on Tuesday. The home team will feel that they have a big advantage over their opponents, but it will not be very easy for them. Lazio are known to challenge their opponents even away from home.
Key Highlights
What will hamper Bayern's confidence ahead of this game is the fact that they were beaten 0-1 by Lazio in the first leg of this encounter played at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. This time around, Lazio may not be able to come onto the front foot as often as they will like to, and Bayern have to be firm in their dealings with them.
Injury Report
Serge Gnabry, Kingsley Coman and Leroy Sane are among some of the big absentees for Bayern in this game whereas for Lazio, Patric and Nicolo Rovella may not be available.
Prediction
Neither Bayern nor Lazio appear to be the favourites to win this game although the former are playing at home and have a stellar record at this venue. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game. Bayern's attackers will feel that they will have to create chances out of the ordinary to compete against Lazio's technical-minded defenders.
