Barça have never beaten Bayern in Europe

Jordi Clos

In the four previous meetings between FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich the German side have a favourable record and Jürgen Klinsmann's team have a great line-up going forward this time around.

There is a strong history between Barça and Bayern as between them they have six European Cups, with the Blaugrana having two and the Bavarian four. The previous meetings though clearly show that it is the Germans that have done well as they met in two ties in the late 1990's in the UEFA Cup and the Champions League and in both cases Bayern progressed.

The first official game between the two teams was in the 1995-96 season when they met in the UEFA. After a 2-2 draw in the Olympic Stadium in Munich, Bayern went to Camp Nou and went away with a 1-2 victory that saw them through to the next round.

Three years later the two teams met again in the group stage of the Champions League and on this occasion the Germans won both matches as they triumphed 1-0 in Germany and then 1-2 in Camp Nou.
