Viktoria Plzen vs Bayern Munich Prediction and Betting Tips | 12th October 2022

The UEFA Champions League is back in action with another round of matches this week as Viktoria Plzen lock horns with Julian Nagelsmann's Bayern Munich side at the Doosan Arena on Wednesday.

Viktoria Plzen vs Bayern Munich Preview

Bayern Munich are currently in third place in the Bundesliga standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The Bavarian giants were held to a 2-2 draw by Borussia Dortmund in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this week.

Viktoria Plzen, on the other hand, are at the top of the Czech First League table at the moment and have been impressive on the domestic front. The Czech outfit has lost all its matches in Europe this season, however, and has a point to prove in this match.

Viktoria Plzen vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Bayern Munich have not been at their best this season but have shown occasional flashes of brilliance under Julian Nagelsmann. The Bavarians dominated their Czech opponents in the reverse fixture and are in need of a similar performance this week.

🗣️ @J__Nagelsmann on #PLZFCB: "With twelve points, we would be well-placed to reach the knock out phase. That would give us some peace of mind, especially ahead of Sunday. This is a very important game. It's up to us to remain relaxed as we have done in the #UCL thus far." https://t.co/DmTKk5QtnH

Viktoria Plzen have struggled in a decidedly difficult group and will need a miracle to take something away from this fixture. Bayern Munich are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
