December 16, 20196 yr It’s at 11am, who are you hoping for? I hope we get someone new, bored of playing Barca and PSG. Facing Sarri again would be nice!
December 16, 20196 yr Don't mind who we play as I'm just happy to be there. It will be a great challenge for our young squad whoever it is. My gut feeling is we play Juventus.
December 16, 20196 yr I've never been to Leipzig but then again i never have enough points for anything these days.
December 16, 20196 yr PSG Vs Dortmund Man City Vs Real Madrid Atalanta Vs Valencia Athletico Madrid Vs Liverpool Chelsea Vs Bayern Munich Lyon Vs Juventus Spurs Vs Leipzig Napoli Vs Barca
December 16, 20196 yr I'm a bit out of touch. Are Bayern still very strong or are they no longer at the level they've been most of the last decade? Just wondering if we have much chance of beating them over two legs. I suspect that unless something quite dramatic and unexpected happens to our squad between now and then, we will likely find this the end of the road.

December 16, 20196 yr Imo the second best or maybe even best draw regarding progression chances. Also promises to be a stunning game. Nobody can look three months into the future but i think we can take them.

December 16, 20196 yr Looking at the Bundesliga table I see that they are not the force they've been. Lost two of their last six and lay in 5th spot. However, they still appear to be able to score a good few goals. That I guess gives them a definite edge over us.
December 16, 20196 yr Happy with the draw. There is no easy match and Bayern are a very good team, but we're Chelsea! We can eat ANYONE on our day. Bayern have had their struggles this season - sacked their manager recently and behind Leipzig in the league. Coman has also just got injured, although not sure if he'll be back in time to play us. Back where we belong in the knockout stages of the Champions League - love it!!
December 16, 20196 yr You think they've heard of us before ? They hate playing us, were the Bavarian party poopers !
December 16, 20196 yr -bad defence lewandowski has been absent and coman out for a while. Not sure if he’s back by time we play them. They may buy in Jan but so might we. I actually think this is about the easiest tie we could have hoped for. Edited December 16, 20196 yr by ozboy
December 16, 20196 yr Chelsea beat bayern twice in the UCL : 2005 and 2012. Bayern never. So that's not too bad I guess.

Not as strong as previous years, but they're still a very good team. It will be tough, but not impossible to beat them.

I actually think this is about the easiest tie we could have hoped for. Before the last few games Lewandowski had scored in every Bundesliga & CL game this season. He is on fire atm. Edit: He scored 2 at the weekend as well. He has 30 goals in I think 22 games for Bayern this season. Edited December 16, 20196 yr by rtwelch
