On Tuesday night, the Champions League will pit two European heavyweights, Bayern Munich vs PSG, against one other in Germany’s Allianz Arena. After four rounds in the League Phase, Les Parisiens are in 25th position, while the Bavarians are in 17th.
By the halfway point of this Champions League, everyone anticipated that Bayern and PSG would lead the league or at least rank in the top eight. On the other hand, it may be said that both teams are struggling in the competition so far. The Parisians are a prime example of this; they are currently not even in the playoffs. Conversely, under the current Champions League system, finishing in the bottom half of the league is possible and still getting to the final.
The Parisian club got off to a good start in the competition, defeating Girona 1–0. On the other hand, Luis Enrique’s wards only lost points after that. Naturally, they have a packed calendar of matches; for example, Arsenal faced Atletico Madrid twice (0:2 and 1:2). Even with PSV, the Parisians should have won, but they only managed a draw. With four points, PSG has dropped to the 25th spot.
Bayern is somewhat better off. The team’s six points guarantee them 17th place. The Spartans remain in the round of 16. Losses to Aston Villa (0:1) and Barcelona (1:4), two formidable international opponents, have already doomed them. Kompany’s squad also won 9-2 against Dinamo Zagreb and 1-1 against Benfica.
Also, neither grand should have too much trouble winning their home tournaments. Sure enough, they’ve lost two games this season—one in the Bundesliga to Bayern Munich and one in Ligue 1 to Paris Saint-Germain. However, they still win events with a far higher win-to-loss ratio than other teams. That means the other team is now ahead of you in your league.
