Barcelona is on the edge of elimination from the Champions League group stage; unfortunately, they are not in control of their own destiny. They will have to beat Bayern Munich but also hope that Viktoria Plzen can pull off an upset victory over Inter Milan.
Bayern Munich only needs a draw from their last two matches to secure the top spot in the group. They look like one of the favorites to win the tournament, as they are only one of two teams to have won all four UCL matches so far.

RB Leipzig vs Real Madrid Prediction
➕ FC Barcelona 3 - 1 Bayern Munich
In their previous matchup in Germany, Barcelona outplayed Bayern but failed to capitalize on their chances, thus falling 0-2. That was Barca’s fifth consecutive loss against Bayern Munich in the Champions League and their ninth loss in 12 games against the German side in the competition.
This match is Barcelona’s last-ditch effort to advance to the next round, so they will be pedal to the metal in this contest. The visitors have been inconsistent in domestic play, sitting second in the Bundesliga Table right now but do have two consecutive league shutout victories.
In their previous matchup, the Blaugrana controlled 54% of the possession and created more goal-scoring chances. Unfortunately, their lack of finishing in the final third cost them that match, but their attack is in form right now. They are coming off a 4-0 victory against Athletic Club and a 3-0 victory over Villarreal in the past week.
FC Barcelona vs Bayern Munich Betting Tips
Barcelona have not scored against Bayern Munich in three consecutive matches, but that trend will come to a close as they will be fighting for their Champions League life in this match.
The Barcelona defense is still banged up, so we should see goals from both teams in this contest which could result in a high-scoring game. Barcelona conceded three goals against Inter Milan in their last UCL match and looked vulnerable on the counterattack.
With Barcelona controlling possession, they will be susceptible on the counter-attack, so look for Alphonso Davies, Leroy Sané, and Kinglsey Coman to be a menace on the wings in this match.
The home team should grab all three points from this match but expect a lot of fireworks at the Camp Nou with two prolific offenses going head to head.

With Barcelona on the front foot, they will be leaky at the backline. They will most likely be without Andreas Christensen and Ronald Araújo, so Jules Koundé will be asked to man the center of the defense again.
