Bayern Munich has already clinched a spot in the round of 16 and will get a chance to redeem their previous effort against BATE Borisov in hopes of winning the top spot in Group F.
The last time these two teams met, BATE Borisov shut down Munich at home by the score of 3-1. The German powerhouse did not even score until after the 90 minute mark. It was the only loss that Munich has endured in this tournament. They won their first match over Valencia 2-1 but then followed it with the Borisov loss. In their subsequent match with Lille, Bayern Munich won 1-0. In the second match with Lille they destroyed them 6-1. Valencia managed to stop the German side's imposing defense in a deadlock 1-1 draw that featured no goals for 77 minutes. They lead Valencia in the tie breaker by virtue of earning four of six points in their two matches. All they need to do is win and they lockout up the first place in the group.
BATE Borisov has not locked up their berth in the Europa League after an up and down tournament. They won 3-1 over Lille in their opening match before taking down Bayern Munich 3-1. Valencia then took them down in two matches by a combined score of 7-2, including a four goal concession on the road from the Belarusian side. Lille eliminated them from the round of 16 with a 2-0 win. On the road this team has won once and given up five goals and they are looking at potentially imploding against a strong home side in Munich.
Prediction: Munich is going to come out ready to win this match. It won't even be close; 5-1 Munich.
