Command Analysis

Celtic

Current form
Celtic have successfully completed the main task of reaching the Champions League playoffs. Given the decent competition, it is unlikely that the Celts could set themselves the goal of finishing in the top 8. During the eight rounds held at the main stage, we managed to score 12 points, which allowed us to take 21st place. It should be noted that Brendan Rogers' team scored 10 out of 12 points on their own field. They were somewhat lucky here, as the only really strong opponents at home were Leipzig, who failed the current Champions League draw (3:1). The victories over Slovan (5:1) and Young Boys (1:0), the draw with Brugge (1:1) did not cause any surprise.
Celtic have not won a single game away in the Champions League, with two defeats and two draws. It should be noted that the team completely failed the away matches with Borussia Dortmund (1:7) and Aston Villa (2:4).
In the national championship, Celtic, as usual, knows no equal, confidently wins the competition from the Rangers. After 25 rounds, the Celts have 66 points on their account, an unconditional first place with a solid margin of 13 points from their main competitor. In the last round, Brendan Rodgers' team defeated Dundee 6-0 at home.

Bayern Munich

Current form
Bayern were clearly betting on finishing in the top 8 at the end of the main stage. However, the start period in the Champions League was unsuccessful, away defeats from Aston Villa (0:1) and Barcelona (1:4) significantly complicated the task of reaching the 1/8 finals immediately. At the same time, during the tournament, the Munich team played out, improved, won four of the last five matches and were close to getting into the top eight. These plans were prevented from coming true by a 0-3 away defeat to Feyenoord, although the Reds had a total advantage in that match. The result was 12th place with 15 points in the asset.
In the Bundesliga, Bayern is confidently moving towards the title. Round 21 is behind, the first place is eight points ahead of Bayer. For seven consecutive matches in the championship, the players do not lose points. In the last round, a 3-0 home victory over Werder Bremen was recorded.
On the eve of the trip to Glasgow, the weak away results of the Munich team in this Champions League draw are alarming. We managed to beat only Shakhtar with a score of 5:1. In the other three matches, defeats were recorded with a total score of 1:8.
Disqualifications and injuries
Davis, Ito, Peretz will not play today due to injuries. Gnabry and Palinja's entry into the field is questionable.

1.57Tip and bets
Celtic have an important home field factor on their side, which is largely why the Celts made it to the Champions League playoffs. Bayern played the entire main stage unconvincingly on the road, but at the same time has a significant advantage in class. In key matches, the Munich team looked more than confident, with the exception of the game against Feyenoord, when the ball stubbornly did not go into the goal. We think, however, given the solid selection of experienced performers in the offensive line, first of all, the guests will be able to achieve a fairly well-deserved victory even in Glasgow. You should not overestimate the Celts in the international arena.
Our forecast is for Bayern to win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) by a factor of 2.04
Bet on the total
Bayern's game is focused on attack, ball control and pressure. Celtic will also open up on their own field, as it will be difficult to count on success in Munich. We look forward to a productive and open game in Glasgow today. Let's add that only in three of the ten previous matches with the participation of the "reds" fewer than three goals were scored.
The second bet is a total of more than three goals with a coefficient of 1.64
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
Bayern had won three of the previous four matches away. At the same time, in two cases, the victories were with a difference of one goal. We do not think that Celtic will completely fail at home and suffer a crushing defeat.
The forecast is a victory for Bayern with an advantage of one or two goals with a coefficient of 2.70
