Few matches are eagerly anticipated by football fans worldwide, especially when they take place on a day that coincides with the UCL 2nd Leg Quarterfinals. We at Alley Sport are here to cover our Bayern Munich vs Manchester City Predicted Lineups for the UCL 2nd Leg Quarter-Finals, which will take place on Wednesday, April 19th, 2023, at Allianz Arena, in Munich, Bavaria, Germany.
Bayern Munich vs Manchester City Predicted Lineups & Preview
Bayern Munich has lost both of its most recent UEFA Champions League encounters with Manchester City, which marks the first time they have dropped consecutive contests to them and equals the number of losses they had in their previous five meetings (W3 L2).
Manchester City is one of just three clubs, in addition to Milan (67% – 4/6) and Real Madrid (50% – 10/20), to have triumphed in at least half of their UEFA Champions League encounters with Bayern Munich among teams that have met them five or more times in the competition.
In the 20 games they have played against German opponents in the UEFA Champions League, Manchester City has only lost one (W16 D3). That defeat came at the hands of RB Leipzig in the group stage of the 2021–22 season. In nine games throughout the competition’s knockout phases, they have gone undefeated (W8 D1) against German opposition.
Bayern Munich will be attempting to join Deportivo de La Corua in 2003-04 (5-4 v Milan), Barcelona in 2016-17 (6-5 v PSG), Roma in 2017-18 (4-4 v Barcelona, won on away goals), and Liverpool in 2018-19 (4-3 v Barcelona) as the only teams to advance from a two-legged UEFA Champions League knockout match after losing by three or more goals in the first leg.
Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, has seen his team win each of its last three matches against Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea without allowing a single goal (1-0 at home and away in the 2021-22 Premier League and 3-0 in the first leg of this tie).
This comes after Guardiola’s team dropped three straight games to Chelsea in 2020-21, the last of which was in the 2021 UEFA Champions League final. Going into this feisty battle, Bayern Munich has a win probability of 45%, whereas Manchester City has a win probability of 40%.
