The Super Cup once again pits together the Champions League winners and Europa League winners and this year’s meeting looks a mouth-watering clash as Jose Mourinho looks to plot a victory over the Champions League winners.
The bookies make Bayern Munich the 17/20 favourites, the draw is 13/5 and Chelsea are 7/2 to win in 90 minutes.
This meeting back in the 2012 Champions League final saw Chelsea win the match on penalties and Mourinho will certainly settle for that result again here. He has enjoyed his own success over Bayern Munich in the past, winning the Champions League final against them with his Inter Milan side.
Bayern Munich were held to a 1-1 draw at Freiburg on Tuesday night and they are yet to demolish any opponent, winning 3-1, 1-0 and 2-0 before that 1-1 draw. They are unlikely to score a hatful against Chelsea but are almost certain to score in the match.
Chelsea will also fancy their chances of at least scoring, when they played in this match last season they were beaten by Atletico Madrid when Falcao scored a memorable hat-trick but Chelsea will fancy their chance of at least getting on the scoresheet on Friday as Bayern Munich don’t look as assured at the back as they did last season.The meeting between the two sides in the Champions League final saw Bayern Munich dominate but Chelsea pinch a goal from a set piece to send the tie to extra time and this could be a similar story with Mourinho setting up to keep it tight and play on the counter attack.
For that reason we will be backing both teams to score and the match to finish in a draw after 90 minutes at 10/3.
