Real Madrid are slight favourites to qualify given their advantage from the first leg and with Gareth Bale likely to return the reigning Champions will have to be at their best here. Bayern Munich do not look as powerful as they were last season and as long as Real Madrid can keep their discipline they have a great chance of making the Champion League final.
The Bundesliga Champions have great form at home having won 20 of their last 24 UEFA Champions League home matches. Nevertheless, they have only won one of their last three there. But if we look at past history, they have won five of six ties after losing 1-0 away first.
The players to watch for Bayern Munich will be Mario Mandzukic, Thomas Muller, with Arjen Robben and Claudio Pizarro (who scored two goals last weekend). Pep Guardiola’s men did dominated in the first leg, but they just failed to convert their final chances.
As for Real Madrid, they struggle when on their trips to Germany. The Spanish side went to Germany in last season’s semi final first leg and were beaten by Borussia Dortmund. They went there again in the second leg of this season’s quarter final and lost 2-0 once again to Borussia Dortmund. Their record in Germany currently stands at W2 D6 L19.
Real Madrid have also lost five of their last 23 European away games and four of those have been in Germany. This is the third time they are playing in Germany after having faced Schalke in the round of sixteen, then Dortmund in the quarter- finals. However, their two-legged European ties record against Germany sides is W13 D8.
