Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United is arguably the most interesting duel of the first round of the 2023-24 UEFA Champions League

Even though Bayern Munich isn’t doing too great since the start of the 2023-34 campaign, this team is still seen as a huge favorite against Manchester United. The reason? The Red Devils are just horrible at the moment. They lost three of their last four games, and bookies think another defeat will follow on Wednesday.

Bayern Munich Planning to Stay Undefeated against Man Utd in Germany

Bayern Munich has a fantastic roster this season, with plenty of amazing players in almost all positions. We say “almost” because this team’s first-choice goalie Manuel Neuer is out with a serious injury and probably won’t be back anytime soon. Sven Ulreich, who served as the backup goalie in the past couple of seasons, is Bayern’s starter now.

Although he hasn’t been too horrible so far, we did see him concede a lot of goals. In the five games he’s played for Bayern this season, he allowed seven goals. The good news for Bayern’s fans is that this team’s offense has been capable to save the day most of the time.

That’s no surprise because this team has some really exceptional forwards in 2023. Former Tottenham captain Harry Kane is their most prolific scorer with four goals in five games, followed by Leroy Sane with three goals, and Mathys Tel with two. One of Bayern’s midfielders – Leon Goretzka – has also scored one goal thus far.

All Chaos Broke Lose in Manchester United  

It’s been a horrible season for Man United so far, both on and off the pitch. A couple of Man Utd’s players got into the spotlight for allegations of sexual misconduct. Further, Jadon Sancho got suspended by the club for discipline issues.

All this has had an impact on the Red Devils’ performances on the field. They started the season with a labored 1-0 home win over Wolves in the first round of the Premier League. Then, they lost to Tottenham on the road.

When they returned back to Old Trafford, they beat Nottingham Forest 3-2 after going 2-0 down at one point. It seemed as if better days were on the horizon, but the Red Devils then went on the lose the next two games – by Arsenal on the road and Brighton at home, each time with 3-1 on the scoresheet.

Bayern Munich vs. Manchester United Prediction

Bayern has never lost to Manchester United in Munich, and we’re almost 100% certain that won’t change this week. In fact, we think the hosts are going to win on Wednesday. It’s not just that the Red Devils have all sorts of problems; it’s also because Bayern’s roster looks really good in 2023.

Pick: Bayern Munich to win & over 2.5 goals
