Aston Villa vs Bayern Munich Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League

 by Devesh Jaganath in Champions League Predictions

After over 40 years, the floodlights at Villa Park will be beaming down in midweek on a Champions League fixture, with Aston Villa set to play host to German giants Bayern Munich. The Villans enter round two of the competition in fourth place, while the Bavarians are already atop the League Phase standings. Check out our match prediction below. 

This marks the second-ever meeting between Villa and Bayern, with the last encounter coming way back in 1982 when the Lions clinched the European Cup title - which was also the last time they had featured in Europe’s top club competition. 

Since then, though, the Bundesliga behemoths have featured 28 times in the Champions League, reached the final on six occasions and went on to win the continental title three times, with the most recent being in 2019-20 when they beat PSG. Emotions will be running high at Villa Park this week, but can the hosts overcome the odds to pull off a victory? Here are the key stats to consider.

Aston Villa - Bayern Munich: Form Analysis

Aston Villa have made a very promising start to the 2024-25 season, currently in fifth place in the Premier League with a record of four wins, one draw and one loss in their first six matches.

The Villans also kicked off their Champions League campaign very impressively, beating Swiss champions Young Boys 3-0 a fortnight ago. They are currently unbeaten in six matches in all competitions, including five wins and a draw.

The hosts undoubtedly do their best work at Villa Park, where they have conceded just two losses in their last 10 games. Notably, though, the Lions have scored two or more goals in all but one of their last 12 matches at this venue. 

A win this week will see Aston Villa become only the second English team (after Leicester City) to win their first two matches in the Champions League!

Meanwhile, after a forgettable 2023-24 season, which ended trophyless, Bayern Munich come into this match looking very dangerous. After seven matches in all competitions, they are still unbeaten, notching up six wins and a draw. 

Die Roten took top spot in the table with an incredible first-round result, beating Dinamo Zagreb 9-2 at home. That result smashed several club and competition records, including becoming the first team in Champions League history to score nine goals in one match. 

The only negative to point out about the Bavarians is that they have failed to win any of their last three away games in the Champions League, drawing one and losing two.

Aston Villa & Bayern Munich Squad Analysis

Unai Emery’s side have fared very well this season, despite being without the services of several first-team players, including John McGinn, who is ruled out until the end of the month with a hamstring injury.

Joining the skipper on the sidelines this week are Matty Cash (hamstring), Robin Olsen (head), Jaden Philogene (knock), and long-term absentees Boubacar Kamara (knee) and Tyrone Mings (knee). 

For Bayern Munich, Harry Kane is flagged as a doubt after picking up a knock against Bayer Leverkusen over the weekend!

Indeed, the England captain was withdrawn in the latter stages of the match against the Bundesliga champions with an injured left ankle and will need to pass a late fitness test to feature against the Villans. 

Aside from Kane, Sacha Boey (knee), Hiroki Ito (foot), Josip Stanisic (knee), Tarek Buchmann (knock) and Arijon Ibrahimovic (thigh), are all forced into watching briefs for this match owing to injury. 

Aston Villa - Bayern Munich Key Points

Our Aston Villa vs Bayern Munich Prediction

These two have looked extremely impressive in the early stages of this season and both teams notched up impressive opening-round results, with plenty of attacking play on display. 

After a dismal last season, Bayern look the business again this term and will need all of their experience to overcome a free-flowing Villa in this one. Based on respective forms, this has all the ingredients for a goal-fest in the making - therefore, our Aston Villa vs Bayern Munich prediction: Over 2.5!
