Flamengo vs Bayern Munich Tips, Predictions and Bet Builder

European heavyweights Bayern Munich take on Brazilian powerhouses Flamengo in what looks a cracking round-of-16 tie in the Club World Cup on Sunday night at the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida.

Flamengo topped Group D with two wins and a draw while Bayern Munich had to settle for second in Club World Cup Group C, despite opening the tournament with a 10-0 win.

The Bavarians may come to rue their 1-0 defeat to Benfica, having heavily rotated their starting XI, in their group finale which saw the Eagles claim top spot and now they are in the same half of the draw as the likes of Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.

Still, they should not look too far ahead with Flamengo having shown they are no soft touch, having already beaten Chelsea 3-1 in this tournament as they extended their unbeaten streak to 11 games.

Flamengo vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Best Bet: Bayern Munich to win and Both Teams to Score @ 9/4

Bayern's passage through Group C was not wholly convincing but they booked their place in the knockout stages by winning their opening two games before heavily rotating their starting XI for the finale.

While it will still have been disappointing to lose to Benfica, they had chances to win that game and minds will definitely be focused for the challenge ahead.

Flamengo will not be overawed by the task in hand and went through Group C unbeaten, scoring in every game, but the win over Chelsea comes with a caveat of the Blues playing the final quarter with 10 men.

They were also the only side to allow LAFC to get on the scoresheet, admittedly having rested many of their first-choice stars, but Bayern have a wealth of attacking talent which will ultimately make the difference.

Rob Eddy explains:

While the Auckland result could be seen as an outlier, excuses can also be made for the Benfica defeat and with both teams having kept just one clean sheet in the groups, Bayern's greater offensive weapons can make the ultimate difference.

Flamengo vs Bayern Munich Bet Builder Tip

• Bayern Munich to win
• Michael Olise to score or assist
• Bayern to win most corners
• Flamengo to get most cards
  Pays 13/2

Michael Olise has been a constant threat for Bayern at this tournament and leads the team in assists with two, while he has also scored three times already - sharing top spot with Jamal Musiala, but having goal involvements in multiple games.

The 21-year-old has also supplied the most crosses (16) and attempts at goal (8) and he is sure to be a key figure in Bayern's progress.

With Kompany's men likely to boss possession another corner win is expected as they have won at least six in all three games and allowed no more than three in any, while they have only been given one card in the tournament to Flamengo's four, three of which came against Chelsea.

Rob Eddy adds:

While there are plenty of candidates in Bayern's attack, Olise stands out in multiple ways, particularly at the prices, and looks great value to play a crucial role. He is also likely to aid both the corner and card count battle, with Flamengo having been tested on that front by 10-man Chelsea.
