Wednesday night will provide us with a repeat of the 2012 UEFA Champions League final, as Bayern Munich welcome Chelsea back to the Allianz Arena looking to get their latest UCL campaign off to the perfect start.

Now, let’s take a closer look at some Champions League odds and betting angles for Wednesday’s fixture:

Bayern Munich v Chelsea – Wednesday, 8pm

Punters can bet on Bayern Munich v Chelsea with William Hill

• Bayern Munich have made the perfect start in their domestic league this season, winning all of their three games so far which are an addition to their victories in the Germany Super Cup and the DFB-Pokal, now Vincent Kompany will be looking to take that form into this UCL campaign.
• The Bavarians should be full of confidence ahead of this fixture given they’ve won eight of their last ten UEFA club competition matches against English sides, whilst they’ve beaten Chelsea in their last two UCL meetings back in 2020.
• The European giants have won each of their last twenty-one opening fixtures in the UEFA Champions League, you have to go back to 2002 for their last defeat on Matchday 1, they’ve also scored in thirty-six of their last thirty-seven UCL home games.
  ——————————–
• Chelsea return to the UEFA Champions League after a two year absence and have started this new campaign strongly themselves, unbeaten in their first four games (W2, D2) although the Blues will still feel frustrated about how they dropped two points to rivals Brentford on Saturday evening. 
• Chelsea travel to Germany on Wednesday having won seven of their last eleven meetings against German sides in the UCL group stages, although they’ve lost three of their last five UCL away games without scoring.
• It’s hard to write Chelsea off completely here as ultimately they are the current world champions but i feel like Bayern Munich have that extra bit of quality in the final third and that will be the difference in this one.

Prediction: Bayern Munich To Win & 3 Or More Goals In The Match, Bayern Munich 3-1 Chelsea.
