via https://sportswithjai07.blogspot.com/
Overview
The second Semi-final of the UEFA Champions League is going to go live today with two of the strongest teams right now in this competition, Lyon and Bayern Munich. Both the teams in their last game performed well with Lyon beating Manchester City 1-3 and Bayern absolutely trashing Barcelona 2-8. These teams are meeting for the ninth time in this competition with the last match played was in 2009-10 season where Bayern beat Lyon 4-0 on aggregate. Out of the nine matches, the German side has won four times, lost twice and ended the match with a draw two times.
Predicted Lineup- Lyon
Lyon--Lopes(GK), Marcal, Marcelo, J. Denayer, M. Cornet, H. Aouar, B. Guimaraes,
M. Caqueret, L. Dubois, K. Toko Ekambi, M. Depay(C)
Lyon has an attacking mentality and has troubled a lot of teams this season including Juventus and Manchester City with M. Depay and Dembele being the stars couple of time. They look to start with the same lineup with Dembele coming in as a substitute later in the game.
Predicted Lineup- Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich--M. Neuer(GK)(C), A. Davies, D. Alaba, J. Boateng, J. Kimmich, L. Goretzka,Thiago, I. Peresic, Muller, S. Gnabry, R. Lewandowski.
Bayern is the favourite to win Champions League this season and this team is unstoppable with Lewandowski being the highest scorer this season. They won against Barcelona 2-8 and advanced to the Semi-Final. No injuries so far and Coutinho is set to play against Lyon and will be coming as a substitute after the half time and will be replacing Peresic.
SPORTSWITHJAI07 Prediction- Lyon 2-3 Bayern Munich, The French side will give a tough fight against the German but I think Bayern have an edge over Lyon, Dembele and Depay will be testing Bayern's defence and Boateng will have to be really quick and perform clean tackles.
