Robben, who represented both clubs during his career, expressed confidence in Bayernβs current form, describing them as a well-balanced and highly efficient side. He pointed to their consistency throughout the season, suggesting that their cohesion and structure give them the edge over their Spanish opponents.
However, the former winger also warned that the unpredictable nature of football means nothing can be taken for granted, highlighting how moments such as red cards could quickly change the outcome.
Looking ahead to the return leg, Robben expects Bayern to stick to their established style of play rather than making significant tactical adjustments. He emphasised the importance of defensive solidity, collective attacking play, and maintaining intensity throughout the match to secure qualification.
