UCL 24/25: Bayern Munich Vs Bayer Leverkusen - Tactical Analysis

Despite currently enjoying an eight-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga, putting them on the path to a record-extending 34th German championship, Bayern Munich were unable to break their Bayer Leverkusen hoodoo on the domestic scene from last season in their direct battles.

With both league fixtures for the 2024/25 campaign already played, as well as a DFB-Pokal Round of 16 tie where Leverkusen posted the sole win in between them in Germany this season, Bayern were 0-for-3 against the reigning champions when the full-time whistle went in last month’s scoreless draw at the BayArena.

While that result was of greater benefit to Bayern than it was to Leverkusen, given the league situation, it did extend the Bavarians’ run of six games without a win against their rivals.

Their last success against them had come in September 2022, just before Xabi Alonso’s arrival as their manager the following month.

So when the UEFA Champions League knockout stage draw pitted both sides against each other once again, it offered another opportunity for Bayern to put things right and re-establish themselves as the top dogs in Germany again, not only by the standings but also in head-to-head competition.

And prevail they did, as Bayern walked out with a 3-0 win on Wednesday night to put themselves in a commanding position ahead of the return leg next week, courtesy of a brace from Harry Kane either side of Jamal Musiala’s goal.

In this tactical analysis, Edin Halilović will take a look at some of the keys behind Bayern’s victory, which gave Vincent Kompany his first taste of success against Xabi Alonso as manager, at the fourth time of asking this season.
