FK Viktoria Plzen vs Bayern Munich Predictions

• Bayern have kept three consecutive H2H clean sheets.
• Plzen conceded at least twice and lost each of their last three Champions League games.
• Bayern are yet to concede a goal in this Champions League group stage.

Lights out for Plzen

After a shocking start to the Champions League season which has seen Plzen lose all three games at both half-time and full-time while conceding four goals per-match on average and scoring just once in reply, this could be the game that confirms their rock-bottom finish.

Such a performance has hardly come as a surprise, with just about everyone touting this as the ‘group of death’ ahead of the tournament, although Plzen were unable to pull off any Hungary-esque shocks this time around and look set to exit the tournament tonight, barring any miracles.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich have scored nine times without reply in this group stage to take a commanding lead in the group. One more victory could see them confirm their progression into the knockout phase and they’ll undoubtedly look to do just that as their amazing consistency in this competition has seen them unbeaten in 32 of their last 34 Champions League games.

Finding some value in backing Bayern

A price of 1/8 about the Bayern Munich straight win is simply unacceptable, so we must find another way to side with Julian Nagelsmann’s men. The handicap was one possible option, but the price on -1 also looks skinny at 2/5, so we’re going for the German behemoths to keep their perfect defensive record alive in the win to nil market.

The correct score prediction simply comes from the statistics, Bayern have scored exactly three per group game on average whilst they’re yet to concede, so we’re going for a convincing routine 3-0 victory on that basis.

It may be notable that Jamal Musiala will miss this game with a positive COVID diagnosis, yet Bayern will still have too much quality on the pitch for their Czech opponents to deal with.
