THE PREDICTION
Barcelona are in a precarious position heading into this contest as, although they currently occupy second spot in Group E, they will not progress to the round of 16 should they fail to win and Benfica manage to defeat Dinamo Kyiv in the other fixture. Bayern still have a significant number of absentees in their squad but they are winning games regardless and head coach Julian Nagelsmann would love to see his side finish off with a 100% record. Barca may have to go on the attack here which will ultimately leave them exposed and a high-scoring game could ensue, with over 2.5 goals the tip.
