Bayern Hold A 2-1 Advantage Over Real Madrid From The Champions League Quarter-Final First-Leg
Allianz Arena | Champions League QF 2nd Leg (2-1) | Wednesday April 15 | 8pm
Another mouthwatering Champions League clash awaits at the Allianz Arena and here at BetVictor News, we have the Bayern vs Real Madrid prediction, preview, H2H record, latest odds, team news, best betting angles and more ahead of this week’s UCL battle.
Bayern Vs Real Madrid Preview
After a monumental win at the Bernabeu last week, Bayern Munich will be hoping to get the job finished against Real Madrid on Wednesday. Goals from Luis Diaz and Harry Kane – who is the joint 5/1 favourite in World Cup top scorer betting – gave the Bundesliga giants a 2-0 advantage.
However, a late strike from Kylian Mbappe means Real are still in the contest. Despite that late strike, the Bayern vs Real Madrid odds heavily favour the Bavarians to win on the night and progress to the semi-final. Will all go according to plan from Vincent Kompany’s perspective?
The Belgian boss will truly hope so. Last week’s victory was the first against Los Blancos in ten attempts in Europe’s elite club competition. Not only that, a 5-0 thrashing against St Pauli has put Bayern on the cusp of 35th Bundesliga title.
As for the LaLiga giants, it’s in their DNA to succeed in the Champions League. After all, Alvaro Arbeloa’s side have come up trumps 15 times in the competition’s history. Nonetheless, it will take a herculean effort to win in the south of Germany in-front of a hostile and passionate home crowd. Perhaps the wait for a 16th success will go on until at least next season.
Bayern Vs Real Madrid H2H Record
After their quarter-final first-leg win last week, the Bayern vs Real Madrid H2H record is almost equal. Die Roten have 12 wins whereas Real have 13 to their name. There has been just four draws played out between the two titans of European football.
That is something to bear in mind when it comes to Bayern vs Real Madrid betting – stalemates are a rarity. If Bayern can make it 13-13 on Wednesday, they will be one of the heavy favourites to go all the way in the Champions League outright winner market.
Bayern vs Real Madrid H2H record:
- Bayern wins – 12
- Draws – 4
- Real Madrid wins – 13
Bayern vs Real Madrid Team News
Teenage sensation Lennart Karl and goalkeeper Sven Ulreich are ruled out for Bayern Munich. There were doubts surrounding the fitness of Harry Kane from the first-leg but he was rested on the weekend and is expected to start up top. He’ll be supported by Michael Olise, Luis Diaz and either Jamal Musiala or Serge Gnabry.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid will have to make do once again without Thibaut Courtois and Rodrygo. The same applies to midfield ace Aurelien Tchouameni who is suspended. Kylian Mbappe – who is the odds on favourite when it comes to Champions League top scorer betting – was a minor doubt but is deemed fit enough to start.

Bayern Vs Real Madrid Prediction
Similar to our Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona preview and Liverpool vs PSG prediction, it’s highly unlikely a Champions League Remuntada will occur. Even more so as Bayern are a winning machine with confidence and momentum firmly in their favour.
It would be naive to completely rule out Real Madrid but this obstacle will probably be too hard to navigate and a home win is hard to ignore.
