Bayern vs Chelsea: Expert Prediction for the Champions League Clash in Munich

The author of «Championship,» Maxim Ermakov, has provided his forecast for the Champions League match between Bayern Munich and Chelsea.

**Betting suggestion:** Bayern Munich to win or draw + both teams to score at odds of 1.98.

Chelsea boasts an impressive squad that poses a significant threat, even to Bayern Munich. However, they are grappling with several injuries, notably the absence of Liam Delap, while Levi Colwill would be a valuable addition to their defense. Although the depth of the squad has diminished, they still have a number of quality players available. Enzo Maresca has assembled a well-balanced team, but concerns linger over the defense, which conceded two goals against Brentford in their previous match.

It’s advisable to place a bet on Bayern Munich not losing, potentially through a score of both sides. The London team will face a tough challenge, but the inventive Enzo Maresca is likely to devise a plan. In the 2025 World Cup, he unexpectedly halted PSG, so Vincent Kompany must be prepared for anything. Furthermore, Bayern’s defense does not appear to be an impregnable fortress, and with Palmer’s return, Chelsea’s attack will become even more creative.
