Bayern Munich will take on Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League on Tuesday.
The defending champions can clinch a spot in the knockout rounds if they manage to win this game. With a victory, Bayern Munich would have 12 points and have a six or nine point lead on third place in the group depending on the result between Manchester City and CSKA Moscow. If Manchester City wins and Bayern Munich wins, then CSKA Moscow would remain at three points with two games to go and Munich would be nine ahead. If City loses to CSKA Moscow, Munich would have a six point lead and would only need one point in its final two games to clinch first place. A draw in the game would leave CSKA Moscow with four points and City with seven; Munich would clinch a top-two spot in the group if this scenario played out.
Munich has been dominant in the tournament thus far with three wins in three tries. The team took down CSKA Moscow 3-0 in its opening game and then embarrassed Manchester City 3-1 at the Ethiad Stadium in Manchester. In its most recent game, Bayern won 5-0 over Viktoria Plzen.
The Czech team has lost every single game thus far and has conceded three or more goals in every single match.
Prediction: Munich should have no problem winning this game. The question is by how much? Expect a 3-0 win for the Germans.
Start Time: Kick-off starts at 2: 45 p.m. EST
