On March 16 Bayern Munich host Juventus at Alianz Arena in the second leg of the Champions League last 16. The result of the first leg was 2:2.
Bayern had been outplaying Juventus in the first 60 minutes of the first game leading 2:0. However they slip the lead, as the hosts managed to tie the game. Guardiola’s side have an explicit attacking flair that they proved it that match at Juventus Stadium, but it’s hard to understand what happened to the German champion in the last 30 minutes. We will find out on Wednesday whether Josep managed to solve this problem. As to the performance at home Bayern won 16 of their last 17 home matches having lost sensationally to Mainz 1:2.

After the draw and first half of the first leg Juve were considered as underdog in this matchup. Still they managed to comeback and it allows them now to hope for advancing to the next round. On top of that, they indeed have chances to succeed, as they managed to keep a clean-sheet and find a net in 6 of their last 7 away games.
Considering the head-to-head record German champion’s position is more solid than Italian’s one, as Juventus have been struggling to beat Bayern in their last 5 matches. The last time Bayern lost to Italian side was on 2 November 2005. Munich side are of the favorites of the Champions League and they need to prove their level.
Prediction: Bayern to win.
