Barcelona vs Bayern Munich Prediction: Barça has yet to allow anyone to increase their average performance

Bayern was an uncomfortable opponent for the Catalans not so long ago, but last season they stopped being so. It will take time to regain the lost ground.

The Catalans have three wins, but it cannot be said that these victories were easy. In the first two rounds, they managed to turn the scale in their favor only in the final quarter. Perhaps only the game against Partizan was a little easier for Barça - in Belgrade, they achieved a visible advantage in the first half and simply managed to hold on to it in the second.

In such a situation, Barcelona lost all three third quarters, including the home one against Efes.

Today, the Catalans score almost 87 points per game on average, conceding 75. Let's see if Bayern Munich is ready to do something against such a top opponent.

Munich concedes an average of 71 points per game while scoring 76. They had just one away game, and in it, they got 78 from Panathinaikos, who are 13th in the league in scoring. Alba and Baskonia are also close to the Greeks. It turns out that Bayern hasn't played with truly efficient teams yet.

Well, Barça has conceded less from each opponent than the average score of that opponent. Once again, no one jumped above their average points in the game with Barcelona. Not even Partizan Belgrade.

Many people remember when Bayern scored 90 in Barcelona in the cosmic five-match series of the 21/22 season. Alas, that was just an episode - in the next five head-to-head matches, the Germans did not score more than 73 at home or away against Barça.

So, Munich does not concede much, so we probably can not confidently choose the bet on Barcelona's total. In turn, Barça has not yet allowed anyone to increase its average performance.
