Kompany's Werder-Curse and 4 Other Facts Before the Bayern Game
1. Kompany's Dire Record Against Werder Bremen
Vincent Kompany has a dismal record against Werder Bremen, having never won in six attempts against the German club.
In those six matches, Kompany's teams have conceded 14 goals and scored just twice.
This poor run of form will be a major concern for Manchester City as they prepare to face Werder Bremen in the Champions League.
2. Bayern's Impressive Home Record
Bayern Munich have an excellent home record in the Champions League, having won their last 15 matches at the Allianz Arena.
They have scored an average of 3.3 goals per game during that run and conceded just 0.7 goals per game.
This formidable home record will make it very difficult for Manchester City to get a result in Munich.
3. Manchester City's Away Form
Manchester City have not been as impressive away from home in the Champions League, winning just three of their last six away matches.
They have scored an average of 1.7 goals per game during that run and conceded an average of 1.3 goals per game.
This relatively poor away form will give Werder Bremen hope that they can cause an upset on Wednesday.
4. The Importance of the Match for Both Teams
This match is crucial for both teams, as it could have a major impact on their chances of qualifying for the next round of the Champions League.
Manchester City need to win to keep their hopes of winning the group alive, while Werder Bremen need to win to keep their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages alive.
This added pressure will make for an exciting and closely-fought match.

- Vincent Kompany (Manchester City)
