Bayern Munich take on the visitors Celtic at “Allianz Arena” in the matchday three of the UEFA Champions League Group stage. The game will be played in Munich on Wednesday, October 18th.
Bayern Munich have changed the head-coach after the latest Eurocups’ battle: Jupp Heynckes returned to Munich, having refused from his retirement. Last Saturday “Stern des Sudens” smashed SC Freiburg with 5:0 scoreline in its first clash under the rule of the legendary head-coach. In regards to the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich occupy the second place in the table with 17 points taken and 21-7 goal difference after eight encounters played. The Germans picked up three points in two matches within the UEFA Champions League Group stage after 3:0 triumph over Anderlecht and 0:3 defeat from Paris SG. Bayern Munich have not been beaten at the home turf since the 6th of May across eight consecutive games covering seven victories and one draw.

In their turn, Celtic come up to their visit to German with six-clash undefeated streak, having got five wins and single draw with 15 goals for and two goals against during that run. “The Celts” share the first-second places in the Scottish Premiership with Aberdeen, having earned 23 points with 21-5 goal difference in nine rounds played. Concerning the UEFA Champions League, Celtic lost 0:5 Paris SG and thrashed Anderlecht 3:0 on the road, having almost guaranteed themselves a place in the UEFA Europa League as an outcome of the UEFA Champions League Group stage. Brendan Rodgers’ side participated in nine clashes at away fields in this season, having taken eight triumphs and single loss in them.
Last time the rivals faced each other was in 2003 with those battles ended with 0:0 draw and 2:1 victory of Bayern Munich. I believe that the hosts will succeed once again in the forthcoming clash as they have to take revenge for the failure in the previous Eurocups’ gameweek.
Prediction for the match: Bayern Munich to win with -2.0 Asian handicap.
