Bayern Munich Odds:14/1
Strengths: Great technical team and a real team spirit instilled by manager Jurgen Klinsmann. Almost all the players in the squad are capable of goals and they are a strong, experienced side- reaching their peak. Perhaps this is the year for them to make up for the disappointment of 1999.
Weaknesses: Very vulnerable on the counter attack. Despite a strong defensive midfield in van Bommel and Borowski, wide men such as Podolski, Ribery and Schweinsteiger can be unwilling to work back; thus leaving them open- especially when Lahm has pushed forward.
Key Player: Franck Ribery. Every team that wins the Champion's League needs a player of real world class quality. Franck Ribery has the potential to be that player. Injury in Euro 2008 prevented him showing his skills but this is the time Bayern need him to prove he is in the same bracket as Messi and Ronaldo.
