📊 Match Insights
Bayern Munich aims to recover from recent domestic setbacks with a Champions League win against Viking FK on Tuesday at Lyse Arena.
Currently, Bayern sits in second place in the league phase with three points after their first match, while Viking FK is at the bottom in 30th place, having lost 3-1 to Stuttgart on September 9.
In that defeat to Stuttgart, Viking faced significant challenges, allowing four major chances and 11 shots from within the penalty area, and they were fortunate to avoid a fourth goal thanks to the crossbar.
On a brighter note, Viking's performance in their domestic league has been strong, as they lead the Eliteserien with 53 points, although Bodo/Glimt is closely behind them on goal difference.
Under head coach Morten Jensen, Viking has only experienced one loss in their last 10 matches, which was against Stuttgart, and they secured victory in seven of those games.
The home side has been impressive, winning their last 11 matches at home and scoring at least two goals in each of those encounters.
However, Viking has only kept three clean sheets during this run and has conceded a total of 35 goals across 17 Champions League appearances.
In contrast, Bayern comes into this Champions League fixture after a disappointing 2-2 draw with Augsburg, marking the second time in five Bundesliga matches that they have failed to secure a win, raising concerns about their defensive stability.
