Preview: Feyenoord vs. Bayern Munich - prediction, team news, lineups

Feyenoord and Bayern Munich promises to be a compelling encounter, given the contrasting fortunes of both teams in recent matches. Bayern Munich enters this fixture with a strong domestic form, having secured four consecutive victories in the Bundesliga, which includes an impressive tally of 17 goals scored in the Champions League In stark contrast, Feyenoord has struggled to maintain momentum in their domestic league, managing only draws without any wins over their last three matches . This disparity sets the stage for an intriguing battle where both teams have distinct motivations: Bayern seeks to solidify their standing and avoid playoff contention while Feyenoord aims to leverage their attacking prowess against a formidable opponent.

The hosting Stadionclub is 18th in the standings with three wins, one draw, and two losses. They are only three points behind the top three, but with so many teams stacked close together, Feyenoord needs a win here to stay in contention for the playoffs. Anything other than that could make their last matchday game against Lille tougher than ever.

The visiting Bavarians start here in 10th place with 12 points from four wins and two losses.

They are still not guaranteed a playoff place, and anything less than a win could make things tricky for their last matchday meeting against Slovan Bratislava.
