Free Betting Tip - Villarreal – Bayern

Details:

After the ultimately sovereign 8: 2 in the first and second leg against RB Salzburg, a much more demanding task should now await the record champions in Villarreal, which Juventus recently eliminated.

The quarter-final first leg of the Champions League between Villarreal and Bayern will take place on April 6th. Kick-off is at 9:00 p.m. German time.

On the Munich side, Julian Nagelsmann will definitely have to do without Alphonso Davies in this important Champions League quarter-final first leg. In addition, Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting is absent due to Covid infection.

After all, players like Leon Goretzka and Niklas Süle are again available as options.

Only left-back Alberto Moreno is absent from Villarreal. He falls out with a cruciate ligament tear.

Villarreal line-up: Rulli - Foyth, Albiol, Torres, Pedraza - Yeremy, Capoue, Parejo, Lo Celso - Gerard, Danjuma.

Bayern line-up: Neuer - Pavard, Upamecano, Süle, Hernandez - Kimmich, Goretzka - Musiala, Müller, Coman - Lewandowski.

Missing: Moreno / Davies, Choupo-Moting, Tolisso.

FC Villarreal is one of eight Spanish teams that Bayern Munich have played in competitive matches. The paths of the red and yellow submarines have crossed exactly twice so far.

In 2011/12 they met in the group phase on the way to the “Finale dahoam” from Munich. In the end, Bayern were victorious twice.

On September 14, 2011, Bayern won 2-0 away. Toni Kroos and Rafinha scored the goals. At home, too, the 2013 CL winner left nothing to be desired. Franck Ribery scored twice and Mario Gomez scored in the 3-1 win. Jonathan de Guzman shortened in the meantime.

Still in the Bayern squad at the time: Diego Contento, Danijel Pranjic, Anatoliy Tymoshchuk and Nils Petersen.

Who is favorite on April 6th?

There is no doubt that Bayern Munich will be the top favorites to face Villarreal in the Champions League quarter-finals. But the most recent away appearance at RB Salzburg showed with a 1-1 draw that victory will not come automatically.

Nevertheless: The Munich team sees the Villarreal vs. Bayern betting odds in El Madrigal as well. Immediately after the draw, bet365 estimates FCB in Spain at 1.61.

Meanwhile, there is a fairly high odd of 5.50 for the home team to win. However, the quota situation could still be slightly adjusted before the kick-off.

Current form before Villarreal – Bayern

The form and the atmosphere associated with it could not be any different for the two opponents Villarreal and Bayern. Because the Munich come with a lot of self-confidence in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Munich have won five of the last seven competitive games and, despite the mistake made in Freiburg, were also clearly victorious there 4-1. In addition, there is the already mentioned 7:1 against RB Salzburg, which is undoubtedly the highlight of the last few weeks.

Villarreal are struggling at the other end. In La Liga, the current seventh in the table went astray. First there was a 1-0 defeat in Cadiz, followed by a 2-0 away defeat against Levante last Saturday.

And the U-boat also played the third to last away game in La Liga without scoring themselves (0:1 at Osasuna). Curious that of all things the advancement in the Champions League was achieved 3-0 away at Juve.

At home, Villarreal is the fifth-best team in Spain's La Liga, while away from home Bayern are – how could it be otherwise – the clear number 1 in Germany's Bundesliga.
