Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid is truly the pinnacle of world football at the club level. Bayern wants to salvage a failed season with the Champions League, while Real’s ambition is to win the double.
-02:00 May 1: Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid
This is truly the pinnacle of world football at the club level because both sides are the biggest teams in Europe. Real is the most successful team in the Champions League, Bayern Munich just had a failed season in the Bundesliga but in Europe they are still a force.
The confrontations between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are always the pinnacle of football
Both won the right to enter the semi-finals this year with brave matches and eliminated two English teams, Arsenal and Man City.
Bayern is appearing in the Champions League semi-finals for the 13th time, ranked above Barcelona (12 times) and only behind Real Madrid (17 times). The Champions League is the only arena for Bayern Munich to salvage a failed season. While Real Madrid almost pocketed the La Liga title this year and continues to aim for its 15th Champions League championship.
England is clean in the Champions League, but ‘English factors’ Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham are the key players for both Bayern and Real.
Bayern’s home field advantage cannot compensate for the loss of forces. Defender Alphonso Davies returned from suspension in the second leg of the quarterfinals, but key midfielder De Ligt was injured and could not play. Leroy Sane, Laimer, Upamecano are also unlikely to play. Therefore, the home defense duo in this match is likely to be Kim Min Jae and Eric Dier. That’s not to mention
Bayern Munich defeated Arsenal in the quarterfinals….
On Real’s side, Jude Bellingham will return after being sick and not playing against Sociedad. But Dani Carvajal will be suspended because he received enough cards in the quarter-final second leg against Man City.
…while Real proudly surpassed Man City.
Sport Molde evaluates this as a similar match in both performance and mentality of both sides. Compared to the confrontation, Real is superior to Bayern and it is likely that the Spanish team will have more joy.
Probable teams:
Bayern Munich: New one; Kimmich, Kim, Dier, Davies; Goretzka, Pavlovic; Muller, Musiala, Gnabry; Kane
