5 reasons why Bayern Munich can win the Champions League this season

#2 Bayern's midfield is very strong

Did Real Madrid make a mistake in loaning James Rodriguez to Bayern Munich?

Achieving midfield control is a must for any side to assert dominance in the Champions League, the prime example of that being Real Madrid, where Luka Modric and Toni Kroos laid the foundation for Los Blancos to clinch consecutive European titles.

Fortunately for Bayern, they have exactly the kind of midfield required to control the proceedings of the match. James Rodriguez has been in sparkling form this season, having already notched up 8 assists and 4 goals.

Another summer signing, Corentin Tolisso has been in good form too, particularly in Europe where he has notched 3 goals and an assist too.

Moreover, with the likes of Thiago Alcantara, Javi Martinez as well as Arturo Vidal to bank upon, Bayern Munich's midfield looks indomitable, to say the least.
