Bayern Munich at Liverpool 2/19/19 - Champions League Picks & Predictions

English giants Liverpool will face a tough opposition in the round of 16 of the Champions League, as they will host German powerhouse Bayern Munich on Tuesday. Liverpool have been struggling to be consistent lately and will have to be much better against a huge opponent.

Liverpool are in this stage of the competition for the seventh time, having won five times in the past and lost just once. They have traditionally been great in European home matches, as they are undefeated in their last 19 such matches (14-0-5). Moreover, the Reds have also been really good at home this season, having suffered just a single loss in 17 matches in all competitions (14-1-2). In addition, they have kept 10 clean sheets and have also been great against Bundesliga sides (6-0-2). Bayern Munich have been pretty usual participants in this stage of the competition, as this is the 15th time that they reach the round of 16 (W11 L3). When it comes to English opposition, Bayern Munich have been pretty solid in two-legged ties (W10 L5) and have won each of the last five. They usually score a ton of goals in this round, with a total of 31 goals in their previous seven matches (4.43 on average). This season they have lost just once in their away matches for the Bundesliga but have conceded at least twice in each of their last three.

Both teams will be missing some key players, but the absence of defender Virgil Van Dijk will surely hurt Liverpool’s defense. These are two of the best offensive teams in the world right now and I would surprised if we didn’t see at least three goals here.
