The skills of the Danish double winner have not gone unnoticed by Thomas Tuchel. “They are very strong at home. They want to surpass themselves as a team. We have to prepare very well,” warned the Bayern coach before the trip to the north. In addition, FCB can expect a place in the Danish capital that would probably not be accepted everywhere. But Tuchel doesn’t want to use the difficult-to-play lawn in Copenhagen as an excuse: “We won’t take that as an excuse. We have to swallow it, digest it and accept it,” said the guests’ trainer.

The Danes are actually known for their home strength. In the last Champions League season, they remained unbeaten at home in the group stage, although well-known opponents like Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla FC were guests. The home team were correspondingly optimistic in the run-up to the game. “We’re going into the game with a lot of self-confidence. Last season we didn’t lose against three really good opponents at home,” said midfielder Viktor Claesson. Coach Jacob Neestrup said: “We have a plan and hope it works.”

The Danish hosts got off to a solid start in the Champions League in terms of results with a 2-2 draw at Galatasaray, but were still dissatisfied as they were 2-0 in the lead for a long time in Istanbul. In the domestic league, the reigning champions are at the top of the table after ten games, but suffered a bitter setback at the weekend. Copenhagen lost 2-0 to FC Midtjylland in front of their home crowd.

With the entertaining 4-3 win against Manchester United, FCB got off to a successful start in the new premier class season two weeks ago. This was followed by two straight victories against Bochum (7-0) and in the cup game in Münster (4-0) as well as a 2-2 draw after a 2-0 deficit at RB Leipzig last weekend. Although Munich has been beaten for eight games and has won six times, the mood is still subdued. The record champions’ performances are too changeable. There are problems, especially in defense, both in terms of personnel and quality. The recent speculation about a possible return of Jérôme Boateng hasn’t exactly brought about any calm on Säbener Straße.
