Why Bayern Munich will beat Villareal

In many ways in the first match, Bayern beat themselves. The Bundesliga squad controlled possession throughout, 62% to 38%, and took significantly more shots. Villareal scored on their 1 shot on goal. So all Bayern had to do was take better shots and not make a single mistake in the back end. Bayern gets Villareal on their pitch. They should win this no problem.

Final Betting Analysis: Villareal at Bayern Munich

Although the victory happened on Villareal’s field, we shouldn’t downplay the the Primera Division’s victory. Villareal played an excellent match. Any time you beat a team like Bayern, one of the best soccer clubs on the planet, you played great.

But while we should give Villareal credit, we shouldn’t give them too much credit. History won’t repeat itself in this match. Bayern should have dusted Villareal by 2 to 3 goals.

If Bayern is more selective in the rematch, if they bring up their shots on goal total, they should have much more success.

As far as Villareal’s attack is concerned, expect Bayern to lock down on the LaLiga squad. Don’t expect more than 8 shots total with, like what happened in the first leg, a single shot on goal.

Manuel Neuer keeps his shirt clean, Robert Lewandowski scores at least 2, and Bayern wins by 3. Back Munich on the handicap.
