The FIFA bookies have some enticing odds on Bayern Munich Women in this game. The Bavarians destroyed Arsenal Women in a 5-2 win in the last UWCL game, and they look great offensively this season so far. Juventus Women are also doing well, but they haven’t faced a team of Bayern’s caliber yet.
Bayern W are the favorites to win the group, and they will get a big push to keep their lead with a win here. The Bavarians have an extra rest day as well, so that will help them be more fresh and ready.
