Barcelona vs Bayern Munich live updates: Champions League predictions, team news and latest result

That shocked me – although not necessarily the first part.

Barcelona have actually lost their last SIX games against Bayern Munichwhich seems remarkable given Barca’s pedigree.

It’s also getting worse. Those six defeats came with 22 goals conceded – that’s closer to four than three per game – and they haven’t scored in their last four meetings.

Your mind might immediately turn to Bayern’s 8-2 quarterfinal win over Barca in Lisbon, back in the behind-closed-doors, COVID-affected summer of 2020.

Not that this is the worst run in their history (yet). Between 1962 and 1965, Barcelona lost seven consecutive games to Real Madrid.
