Game time: 0:45 am on October 5th, Beijing time
After the first 2 rounds of Group C, Bayern ranked first with 2 consecutive victories and 6 points, Barcelona ranked second with 1 win, 1 loss and 3 points, and Inter Milan also ranked third with 1 win, 1 loss and 3 points. Bilsen wins 2 consecutive losses and is bottom with 0 points.
Bayern is still strong in the Champions League. In the first round, they beat the Serie A giants Inter Milan 2:0. In the second round, they played against Barcelona, led by Lewandowski, who just left this summer. They also won 2:0. It’s just that in the Bundesliga, after losing Lewandowski, Liverpool’s Mane was obviously inferior to Lewandowski.
Victory in Pilsen is a veteran giant in the Czech League One, but in the Champions League, it can only be regarded as a “belly of fish”.
The two sides have faced each other twice in the 2013-14 UEFA Champions League group stage. Bayern won 5:0 at home and 1:0 away from Pilsen.

Although the former top scorer, Belgian center Lukaku, was brought back on loan this summer, Inter Milan’s record is not as good as last season. In the first round of the Champions League group stage, they lost 0:2 at home to Bayern. “Bilsen wins. In Serie A, they ranked ninth with 4 wins, 4 losses and 12 points in the first 8 rounds, 8 points behind the leader Naples, and there is no hope for the championship.
Barcelona has finally seen a revival this season after sacking Valverde and declining for more than two years. In the new season, La Liga and the Champions League have played 9 games, and only lost 1 game in the away game against Bayern. In this round of La Liga, when Real Madrid was tied 1:1 by Osasuna at home, they climbed to the top of the La Liga standings with a goal difference. In the ninth round, they will play Real Madrid away in the “National Derby”, which is expected to continue to expand their lead. . In the Champions League, there is hope for at least the second promotion in the group. The third and fourth rounds of back-to-back battles against Inter Milan will be crucial, and at least 3 points must be scored in the two games.
The two teams have met in the past 9 times, Inter Milan has 1 win, 2 draws and 6 losses, being in a disadvantage.
In terms of overall strength and lineup configuration, Barcelona may not be much stronger than Inter Milan, but in terms of recent state and team morale, Barcelona has a better chance of winning in this game.
