With Champions League back in action, Allianz Arena presents the mega event between two giants Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday, 26 November. Both teams will look for the crucial victory as neither of them is pleased with their current position in the UCL standings.
Bayern Munich vs PSG: Match Preview
Bayern Munich have recovered impressively from their 4-1 defeat to Barcelona in October by getting six consecutive victories ahead of this match. Earning their fifth consecutive Bundesliga victory, the Bavarians defeated Augsburg at home with a comfortable 3-0 lead. Bayern has also been in good shape at home in their European campaign, winning both fixtures against Benfica and Dynamo Zagreb. However, defeats against Barcelona and Aston Villa have restricted them to the seventeenth position after four rounds in Champions League.
Paris Saint-Germain have also secured momentum in their domestic league, six points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 table. However, their Champions League campaign remains challenging, having managed only one victory in four rounds, winning only against Girona. The only travel of the campaign was against Arsenal which saw PSG enduring a 2-0 loss. With only one victory and a draw in four fixtures, the Parisians found themselves in the twenty-fifth position of the Champions League table.
Bayern Munich vs PSG: Head-to-Head Record
We have witnessed an exciting rivalry between these two teams since Bayern Munich won the Champions League against PSG in 2020. However, the Bavarians have taken the upper hand in recent H2H clashes, with four victories in the previous five meetings. Their home soil has also been their great support, where they produced the same record of four wins in the last five encounters.

Bayern Munich vs PSG: Match Prediction
Although both teams enter this game following successive league victories, Bayern Munich would be confident over their home advantage. The Bavarians have claimed consecutive clean sheets in their previous four home games, including a win against Benfica. On the other hand, PSG’s inconsistent form in UCL has scored only two goals in the last three Champions League matches, conceding five in return. Therefore, we back Bayern to retain their winning streak on Tuesday with a narrow margin against Paris Saint-Germain.
