Bayern Munich vs Lazio Prediction & Betting tips
FC Bayern Munich and Lazio Roma will play the return match of their eighth final in the Allianz Arena on Wednesday evening. Things are pretty much decided. Bayern won the first leg in Rome with 1-4. Nevertheless, it can still be an interesting match.
Bayern Munich:
It seems like an eternity ago, with the matches that follow each other in rapid succession, but three weeks ago Bayern Munich and Lazio Roma played their first mutual duel. Those who expected an exciting battle were disappointed. Especially in the first half, Der FCB was much too strong for the Italians. Bayern went to rest with a 0-3 lead, and there was nothing flattering about that. In the second half, Hansi Flick’s team slowed down a bit, but the victory was never in jeopardy. After ninety minutes there was a generous 1-4 on the scoreboard of the Stadio Olimpico.
So we can actually already write down Bayern with the quarter-finalists. After their victory in the Italian capital, the people of Munich showed their shape. In their own country, three good league victories were booked in a row, including one against Borussia Dortmund (4-2). Last Saturday Bayern was (much) too strong for SV Werder Bremen. The victory should have been bigger than the 1-3 that eventually came out of the bus, but goal-getter Robert Lewandowski had a lot of bad luck in the finish. Given the 1-4 ‘score’, Flick might be able to give some players a rest, but it is not expected to do so. A home game against VfB Stuttgart awaits in the league on Saturday, so there is no real need for that either.
Lazio:
SS Lazio Roma thus suffered a considerable downer three weeks ago. They did not defend equally convincingly with all counter hits, but it goes too far to attach the defeat to that. Overall, the visitors from Munich were simply too strong for Lazio. “Bayern is the world champion, and probably the best team in the world,” said Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi after three weeks ago. ‘It’s a bad night. We had prepared for something different, ā€¯goalkeeper Pepe Reina was disappointed with the defeat to his old employer.
After the loss, the Romans suffered two defeats in Serie A. Last weekend, I Biancocelesti did recover somewhat, with a 3-2 home win over small Crotone. Felipe Caicedo was crowned match winner with a late goal. It remains to be seen whether Inzaghi has a place in the base in mind for him, or whether Ciro Immobile has Joaquin Correa as attack partner. Just like his colleague Flick, Inzaghi will probably take office with his strongest eleven. He could save players for the competition, but another big defeat is also not good for the atmosphere and the confidence. Normally Lazio’s line-up resembles that of the first leg.
