Bayern Munich vs. Chelsea: Live Stream and What to Watch for in the UEFA Final

Patrick ClarkeJun 7, 2018

One would be hard pressed to consider themselves a true football fan if they were to miss Saturday's UEFA Champions League Final between Bayern Munich and Chelsea (2:45 p.m. ET, Fox). 

If you can't watch the game on television, you can stream the championship match live with UEFA Live Stream

On Saturday, the eyes of the football world will be descended upon the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany to see who truly is Europe's best. Here are a few things to watch for:


Battle of Styles

Chelsea and Bayern play two very different styles of football. While Chelsea is content to defend for the duration and create their chances on the counterattack, the German side looks to benefit from their world-class speed on the outside from wingers Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben.

Considering that Chelsea will be without defensive legend John Terry in the back, they will be even more careful as to not concede early on and will likely look for a single goal to win them their first ever European Cup.

Watch to see which style of play outlasts the other on Saturday.


Mario Gomez

Bayern forward Mario Gomez is an accomplished scorer in UEFA. He has 12 goals on 38 shots in 10 UEFA Champions League appearances this season, the most of any Bayern player. However, Gomez will find it difficult to find space in the final third as Chelsea's defense allows opponents with few opportunities in front of goalkeeper Petr Cech.

Watch for Gomez to be the one to break through for Bayern on Saturday.


Fans In Attendance

Bayern will be playing in their home venue in Munich on Saturday, but boasting the home crowd hardly guarantees victory. In the 1984 Champions League final at Stadio Olimpico, Liverpool topped Roma on penalty kicks. 

Bayern supporters will be hungry for a victory, especially because Munich has not held the European crown since 2001, and fell short in 2010, losing 2-0 to Inter Milan in the final. However, Chelsea fans will be rabid for their first UEFA win, losing their only appearance on penalty kicks in 2008. 

Watch to see which supporters make up a majority of those in attendance on Saturday, and if it impacts the match.
