Match Overview
Bayern Munich travel to the capital city of Italy, Rome, to take on Lazio in a match in the round of sixteen stage of the UEFA Champions League at the Stadio Olimpico. While Bayern will feel that they should be able to come back home with a draw at the very least, Lazio will not let them breathe easy during the ninety minutes of the game at all.
Key Highlights
There have been a total of just two games played between these two teams in the past. Both of these games were won by Bayern although Lazio did put up a more than decent challenge against them. The home team have a good chance of upsetting the narrative this time when Bayern come calling at the Stadio Olimpico in this game.
Injury Report
While Lazio do not have any major players missing in action in this game, Bayern will be without the services of Tarek Buchmann, Alphonso Davies and Serge Gnabry among others.
Prediction
There is no doubt whatsoever that Bayern are the downright favourites to win this game. They should be able to coast over the line quite comfortably in the end. Lazio have a strong defensive unit, and they are usually known to be quite hard to challenge in home conditions, but Bayern are just too strong for them. It may end up being a lopsided game.
