Match Preview | |
Barca will have a tough match against Munich in the 2021/22 UEFA Champions League group E opener which will take place at Camp Nou, Wednesday (15/09/2021) at 12:30 midnight Indian time.
Barca and Munich in Group E are joined together with Benfica and Dynamo Kyiv.
In this match against Munich, Barca itself was haunted by bad memories. The reason is, the last time they met in the quarter-finals of the 2019/20 UEFA Champions League last season, Barca was beaten by the German giant. In a match that lasted only 1 leg, Barcelona, which was still reinforced by Lionel Messi, had to be defeated by Munich with a score of 2-8.
However, Barca is currently starting a new era without Messi. Although their strength has been reduced due to the departure of Messi, in fact, Barca is still able to perform well this season.
In the last match before the international break, Barca managed to win over Getafe with a score of 2-0 in La Liga through goals from Sergi Roberto and Memphis Depay. This victory makes the Blaugrana now unbeaten in their last 4 matches (W3 D1 L0).
Meanwhile, Munich also came with a record that was no less flashy. Last weekend, Munich was able to pick a landslide victory 4-1 over RB Leipzig in the German Bundesliga through goals from Robert Lewandowski, Jamal Musiala, Leroy Sane, and Eric Choupo-Moting.
This victory became Munich's winning streak in their last 5 matches in all competitions (W5 D0 L0). Even more impressive, Munich was recorded as being able to score 27 goals in those 5 matches, and only conceded 4 goals.
If you judge in terms of current quality, Munich of course will be slightly more favored over Barca in this match.
However, Munich still has to be vigilant considering this match takes place at Barca's headquarters. The full support of the fans present will certainly increase the confidence of the Barca players.
