Two struggling teams meet each other; this match will only show the more hungry one for a victory.

Bayern Munich
This squad is currently the third in Bundesliga and is not on their best form this season. Although they are one of the favorites to win this season, they have somehow failed to live up to the expectations of them. In their previous game, they ended up with a draw against Dortmund. Following that draw, they now need to take it up a notch this week. Despite not having the best season, this squad showed brilliance occasionally. They dominated their Czech opponents on their last match, now, they are hoping for the same result.
Injuries after injuries hurt this squad. Matthijs de Ligt, Lucas Hernandez, Alphonso Davies, and Bouna Sarr will all not play in this match. They are now short of their defensive options, so it is intriguing what could happen in this match.
Viktoria Plzen

Going into this match, this squad wants to prove something. This season have been extremely difficult for this squad. Now that they are going against Munich, they need miracle in order to win this game.
They will still be without Pavel Bucha who is suspended fo two matches after being dismissed against Inter. Peter Pejsa is sidelined because of his injury but Vaclav Jemelka could be a replacement for him.

Bayern Munich (2.5)
