Form

Bayern Munich: WWWWW

Vincent Kompany’s side have been virtually flawless on the domestic front; they’re unbeaten in the Bundesliga and are through the third round of the DFB Pokal. Their only slip-ups have come in the Champions League, courtesy of Aston Villa (1-0) and Barcelona (4-1).

Bayern have bounced back from the latter result with a vengeance, winning all of their following six games without conceding a goal.

PSG: WWLWW

Like their German counterparts, PSG are unbeaten in Ligue 1 with ten wins and two draws after 12 games. However, a narrow win over Girona on Matchday 1 remains their only victory in the Champions League this season.

While they have tossed aside the likes of domestic rivals Toulouse and Angers in recent weeks, they drawn with PSV and lost to Arsenal and Atletico Madrid in Europe.
