According to his former legendary defender, Lewandowski’s elimination is good for PSG

According to Bixente Lizarazu, the odds in the quarter-final duel between Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain in the Football Champions League became completely equal after Robert Lewandowski fell out of the defending champions due to injury.

As a player, world and European champion Frenchman Lizarazu - who spent eight and a half seasons at Bayern - highlighted: the lack of a Polish attacker is very sensitive to the defending Germans.

"I would have expected two close matches anyway, but now Bayern has had a serious problem. So now I see a fifty percent chance of progress for both teams," he told German newspaper Kicker. He added that within the sixteen, the Munichers do not have as dangerous a player as the world-class Polish footballer.

"Bayern now need to develop a different tactic for the attacks. The duel will be decided in midfield. PSG players have no problem with the ball, but this time they will have to play without the ball many times," he said.

The two bands last met in the final of the previous BL competition, when the Germans won 1-0.

PSG will also be missing, but none of their play is as marked as Lewandowski’s at Bayern. The Polish - who, according to the latest news, may already be recovering for next week’s rematch - has scored 42 goals in 36 matches in the club season. Without it, the Munichers have played five matches in the season and won four times in a draw. Last Saturday, he was 1-0 as a guest in the league standings against RB Leipzig, which employs three Hungarian national footballers. Lewandowski was replaced by Eric Choupo-Moting.

According to Hansi Flick, who runs Bayern, Choupo-Moting has proven to be a good substitute for the Poles in training and matches, and his inclusion is also tactically advantageous, as it will allow someone from the Kingsley Coman, Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sané trio to be sent into battle to give new impetus. to the Munichers.

The Germans won their last seven betting matches - including both acts of the BL eight-final duel against Lazio - the PSG got home twice during this period with a minimal difference in the league: Lille (0-1) ) also left the Parc des Princes with three points.

On Wednesday in the other pair, Chelsea will be the guest of Porto, although not in Portugal, due to travel restrictions imposed following the coronavirus epidemic, as both matches of the duel will be held in Seville. The two teams have played in the BL eight times, with the draw being won by the current host six times and the away team has won only once, in 2009 by the English. Porto won just twice out of their four home performances, both 2-1.

Both Wednesday’s games will begin at 9 p.m., and the rematches will be played next Tuesday.
