By Gotze AlleemannPublished 2 years ago 3 min read

UEFA Champions League Group C - that is, the long-awaited "Group of Death" is finally about to start, "the blue and black army Inter will be at home against the Bundesliga dominant Bayern Munich, Barcelona hosts the Champions League underdogs Pilsen Victory. First of all for Inter, sitting at the team's home field, to face Bayern! From the strength, Bayern dare not underestimate Inter, after all, if not all 3 points, then in the "Group of Death" inside, the team wants to pass to the top of the group, the difficulty is undoubtedly increased a lot, for Inter, if the team can take Bayern, then the situation of the Champions League group this season may have a greater change.

Barça's side met the "weakest opponent in the group" in the first match at home, and only won 1 of the last 8 European matches at home, can this match against Pilsen Victory open the door? On the side of Pilsen Victory, can they get the first victory in the group of death with so many strong players? Before the match, Pilsen Victory's head coach Bielek emphasized in the pre-match conference: "They are not going to Spain for a trip, there is nothing to lose against Järvi. To get the best result we not only have to play hard, but also show confidence because we will often be under pressure in the game, we have to be able to get rid of these pressures effectively, to create some threats, and problems for the opponent.

Bayern Inter does not want to lie flat

This season's Inter Milan performance is not ideal, after five rounds of the league, only 3 wins and 2 losses, with 9 points ranked 8th in the Serie A table, which lost two games, are two hard fights, first 1-3 loss to Lazio, and then in the last round of the "Milan derby", by the city rival AC Milan to 3-2 reversal. The team's morale was affected by the 3-2 reversal in the last "Milan Derby". The team's morale has been affected by the 3-2 defeat by city rivals AC Milan in the Milan derby.

On the other hand, the Bundesliga dominant Bayern side, the new season's performance is also slightly worse, in the Bundesliga five rounds of three wins and two draws, currently ranked in the league's 3rd position with 11 points. During the summer window, the team's core striker Levan left the team, but Mane, who was brought in from Liverpool, also quickly integrated into the team, scoring four goals in five games. Bayern is currently in a bit of a slump, having drawn the last two rounds of the Bundesliga in a row and conceded goals in both. So this game Bayern and Inter must give their all, who can take this victory, will be able to for the top of the group out of the line a lot easier. Pieces

Can Levan top the scorer's list?

Last season, Barcelona encountered Bayern and Benfica in the group stage. Despite taking all six points from Dynamo Kyiv, the weakest team in the group, a draw and a loss with Benfica led to Barcelona's failure to qualify for the group. This season, Barcelona's reinforcements in the summer window performed quite well, except for the opening match of the first round of the league, which was drawn by the opponent, and then, in the next three rounds of the league, Barcelona achieved a wave of three consecutive wins, the joining of Levan and Rafinha and the return of Dembele's status, have brought a relatively large effect of improvement for Barcelona. Now the game hosts the underdogs Pilsen Victory, whether they can top the Champions League scorers list. In last season's Champions League scorers' list, Leiva managed to score 13 goals in the Champions League on behalf of Bayern, but unfortunately, Benzema scored 15 goals, only two goals behind. Now in Barcelona, Levan, once again to challenge the Champions League scorers list.

In general, Inter Milan just lost the "Milan Derby", the team's morale is relatively low, physical exertion is also relatively large; Bayern side in the recent Bundesliga two rounds harvested two draws, the state is also the same decline, also lost the top of the league position. The strength gap between Barcelona and Pilsen Victory is huge. The total value of the whole Barcelona team is as high as 780 million Euros, while the value of the whole Pilsen Victory team is only 24 million Euros, in front of such a huge difference in strength, can the new formation of Barcelona create several records?
