Two of Europe's most successful sides are set to collide in a titanic clash as Bayern Munich welcome Manchester United to the Allianz Arena on Wednesday. The two teams have won a whopping nine European titles between them (six for Bayern, three for Manchester United), but only one of these two sides have enjoyed more success in recent times. While Bayern's last win was only three years ago in 2020, Manchester United have not graced the winners' podium since 2008, and as such, the Red Devils are one of many fallen giants seeking to make amends in this season's Champions League.
Wednesday's meeting will be the 12th meeting between die Roten and the Red Devils. To date, Bayern hold the slight edge, with four wins versus Manchester United's two. The last clash between the two sides was during the 2013/14 Champions League quarter-finals, which was won 4-2 on aggregate by Bayern Munich, and the German titans are notably unbeaten in their last five home ties against United, with three wins and two draws to date.
Bayern come into this match having drawn Bayer Leverkusen in an entertaining 2-2 affair but that result means that die Roten no longer have a perfect start to the current Bundesliga season. However, their track record in the Champions League is certainly quite impressive - to date, Bayern are on a 34-match unbeaten run in Champions League group stage games, and could make it an unprecedented 14th consecutive home win should they avoid slipping up against Manchester United.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are currently facing a crisis following their 3-1 defeat to Brighton last weekend. At the moment, the Red Devils find themselves in the bottom half of the table, and rumors of strife in the dressing room certainly have heaped further pressure on Erik ten Hag. Worryingly for the visitors is their frustrating track record when it comes to playing Bayern Munich, who have beaten them four times this far. Only Barcelona, who have earned five wins, have caused more frustration for the Red Devils, and to make matters even trickier, the visitors will be missing quite a few options for this crunch tie.
Team news: Bayern Munich vs Manchester United
Bayern Munich: Manuel Neuer, Kingsley Coman, and Raphael Guerreiro are all definite absentees, while Joshua Kimmich is a doubt for this game.
Manchester United: The visitors are dealing with quite a few personnel issues. Both Jadon Sancho and Antony have been banned from first team training due to disciplinary and other personal issues, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Sofyan Amrabat, Tom Heaton and Amad Diallo are all dealing with various injury problems. Some of these players, however, could be involved in some capacity on Wednesday, depending on the outcome of their fitness tests.
