Bayern Munich vs Paris Saint Germain Preview

Bayern Munich vs Paris Saint Germain

Competition – Champions League

Stadium –  Allianz Arena

Date: 5th December 2017

Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT

This game was earmarked as the top-of-the-group decider when the fixtures list was announced and that looks to be the case.

Bayern enter this game trailing PSG by three points as a result of their 3-0 loss at the Parc d’Princess earlier in the season.

They will need to score at least 4 unreplied goals for them to top the group and that is a possibility as PSG enter this game with low confidence, following their first loss of the season.

Bayern defeated Hannover 3-1 this past weekend recovering well from their shock loss at Monchengladbach and they have won all of their Champions League games apart from that loss in Paris.

PSG enter this game with their confidence bruised following their shock 2-1 loss at Strasbourg.

That defeat brought an end to their 7 game winning streak and with so many matches ahead for them to play, they will likely rest some of their stars for this game.

The French Ligue 1 leaders have not been very convincing away from home as they have dropped points at Marseille and Montpelier before last weekend’s loss.

This should give Bayern a little confidence that they can turn this around.

PSG have won two and lost 0ne of their last three meetings with Bayern.
