Bayern Munich Vs Real Madrid Tactics

Both the teams play a 4-2-3-1 formation but Bayern’s midfield of Vidal, Alonso and Thiago will be expected to dominate the ball with the Spaniards looking to spring counter attacks. Ancelotti has gone back to Bayern’s strengths in attacking wingplay as the duo of Robben and Ribery have been in scintillating form this season. Striker Robert Lewandowksi’s all round play will be a headache for the Real defence. On the other hand, Real are walking away with league but they have not been very impressive. The team looks more cohesive when players like James, Isco and Morata are on the team but Bale, Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo are undroppable. Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are possibly the best central midfielders in the world right now.
