Lazio vs Bayern Munich Preview & Prediction (20:00 KO)
Bayern Munich travel to Rome to take on Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie on Wednesday, where they’ll be aiming to bounce back after suffering defeat to Bayer Leverkusen at the weekend.
Thomas Tuchel’s side fell to a 3-0 defeat at the BayArena, dealing a major blow to their Bundesliga title hopes as Xabi Alonso’s men moved five points clear at the top of the table.
Prior to that loss, Bayern had won three German top flight matches in succession, and booked their place in the last-16 of the Champions League by finishing top of their group with an almost perfect record.
With five wins and a draw, the Bavarians finished eight points clear at the top of Group A – ahead of Copenhagen, Galatasaray and Manchester United, meanwhile Lazio finished second in their group – four points behind leaders Atletico Madrid.
I Biancocelesti have been in fairly poor form in recent weeks having failed to win three of their last four matches across all competitions, however they bounced back at the weekend with a 3-1 Serie A victory over Bologna.
Lazio last met Bayern at this exact stage of the Champions League in 2020/21, where the German side recorded 4-1 and 2-1 victories to book their place in the quarter-finals with a 6-2 aggregate triumph. Although we don’t anticipate such a dominant win for Die Roten this time around, we still expect that they’ll advance to the next round of the competition fairly comfortably.
Prediction: Lazio 0-2 Bayern Munich

Lazio vs Bayern Munich Betting Tips

- Harry Kane To Score Anytime @ 1/1
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 3/1
Lazio vs Bayern Munich Betting Tip 1: Bayern Munich HT/FT @ 13/8
Our first tip for your Wednesday night Lazio vs Bayern Munich Champions League Round of 16 bet builder is to back the visitors to lead the tie at both half time and full time, priced by leading UK betting sites at 13/8.
Despite losing 3-0 at the weekend, Bayern have been in strong form since being defeated by Eintracht Frankfurt at the start of December, winning seven of their last nine competitive matches.
As well, the Bavarians have history in facing Lazio at this stage of the competition in recent years, as previously mentioned, winning both legs of their last-16 matchup in 2020/21. Not only that, but they led both of those matches at half time and full time, which we expect them to do once more amid their Italian counterparts’ inconsistent start to 2024.
Lazio vs Bayern Munich Betting Tip 2: Harry Kane To Score Anytime @ 1/1
Harry Kane has enjoyed a strong start to life in Munich in terms of goalscoring since making the switch from Tottenham in the summer, but after being knocked out of the German cup by third tier side Saarbrucken as well as the Bundesliga title slipping away – he could well be set for yet another trophyless season.
Looking to end this unwanted run without a major title, we expect Kane to turn it up a notch to keep Bayern’s Champions League dreams intact. Priced at 1/1, we’re backing the England captain to add to his 28 goal tally this term by scoring at anytime against Lazio on Wednesday evening.
