The round of 16 first leg of the Champions League against Bayern Munich ended for RB Salzburg 3 weeks ago with a blow to the neck. Only in the 90th minute did the underdog have to accept the 1:1 through Kingsley Coman.

The late equalizer wasn’t the only setback for the Austrians that evening. Noah Okafor retired early in the game with a hamstring injury. Since then, the Swiss international has failed. Okafor will also be absent in the second leg in Munich.

Slack at Bayern?

Nevertheless, from the point of view of Salzburg there is reason for hope. On the one hand because they showed in the first leg that they can meet Bayern on an equal footing. On the other hand, because the Munich team were better off than in the last few weeks. Last but not least, this also applies to Robert Lewandowski.

The duty scorer has not scored in 3 of their last 4 games. By Lewandowski standards, that’s a lot, this season there has never been such a “slack” before.
