BAY vs LAZ Dream11 Tips for Bayern Munich vs Lazio Champions League Fixtures 18 March

BAY vs LAZ Dream11: These two sides enter this round of 16 second leg encounter in Germany, with Bayern Munich holding a three-goal aggregate lead over Lazio, having beaten the Italians 1-4 in the first leg. With the visitors needing a minimum of four goals to pull off what would be one of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history, Lazio will be forced to commit bodies forward with nothing to lose and nobody expecting them to pull off a miracle. However, Bayern with their pace on the flanks going forward may well prove lethal on the counter attack and when considering the offensive firepower that Hansi Flick’s side possesses, it would be a surprise if the hosts were not to record another comfortable victory over Lazio.

Likely Winner:

We expect Bayern to get the job done largely in second gear against Lazio on Wednesday, with the Italians needing to score first to have any hope of causing a major upset. The likes of Lewandowski and Gnabry should simply have too much quality for Inzaghi’s side to deal with, with even an under-strength Bayern showing their superiority in the first leg. In our BAY vs LAZ Today Match Prediction odds, we back the German side to win 3-1 in this match.
