Bayern Munich vs Manchester City History

Despite being the older of these two clubs, Manchester City aren't quite able to boast about as much success in Europe as their German counterparts in this fixture. Bayern Munich was founded in 1900 and has gone on to become the most decorated club in German football as well as one of the continent's most revered teams.

The Bavarians first staked their claim in European competition in the mid-1970s, when they secured three successive European Cup titles. Franz Beckenbauer and Gerd Müller were two figureheads of the Bayern team at this time. The German side lost three finals before eventually lifting this trophy for a fourth time in 2001, beating off Spanish outfit Valencia at the San Siro.

Bayern lost to Chelsea in the 2012 UEFA Champions League final but redeemed themselves the following year with victory over Bundesliga rivals Borussia Dortmund at Wembley Stadium. Bayern added a sixth crown to the collection thanks to a 1-0 triumph against Paris Saint-Germain in the 2019/20 UCL final.

Man City had tried for several years to capture a maiden European title, reaching the final in 2021 as well as suffering a couple of semi-final exits to Real Madrid along the way. At long last, Pep Guardiola delivered MCFC to the promised land in 2023. The Citizens defeated Inter Milan, 1-0, in the Champions League final to lift this famous trophy for the very first time.

Bayern Munich vs Manchester City Stats and Mutual Connections

Sergio Agüero scored three goals in four appearances versus Bayern, though they were all scored in Man City's 3-2 win over the Bavarian giants in 2014. The Argentina striker netted twice in the closing minutes to complete his hat-trick and seal a precious victory for MCFC.

Several well-known players of yesteryear played for both these teams, and there've also been a few in recent years to don the badges of both Bayern Munich and Manchester City.

• Roque Santa Cruz spent eight years at Bayern, racking up 238 senior appearances and becoming a Champions League winner with the German side. The Paraguay striker had a short but unsuccessful spell with Man City, though he did become an FA Cup winner during his time in Manchester.

• Former England international Owen Hargreaves played more than 200 times for Bayern before joining Manchester United in 2007. Four years later he made the controversial switch across the Manchester divide, though he played only four times for Man City before retiring from football.

• In more recent years, Germany internationals Jérôme Boateng and Leroy Sané both moved directly from Man City to Bayern.

• Pep Guardiola was Bayern manager for three years before he took up the same role at Manchester City in 2016.

Bayern Munich vs Manchester City Head-to-Head

The first competitive meeting between these clubs came in the 2011/12 UEFA Champions League group stage. Bayern claimed a 2-0 victory in this fixture, with Mario Gómez notching both goals for the hosts.

Bayern and Man City reconvened in the 2013/14 season, again at the group stage of the Champions League. Despite trailing by two goals inside the opening 12 minutes, the Premier League side rallied back and ultimately ran out 3-2 winners thanks to goals from David Silva, Aleksandar Kolarov and James Milner.

The very next season the teams once more shared a UCL group. Jérôme Boateng found the back of the net in the final minute of the 90, for the Bavarians to claim a narrow 1-0 win over their Mancunian counterparts in the first of six group games. Pep Guardiola was Bayern manager at the time, though his team missed out to eventual champions Barcelona in the semi-finals.

Bayern and Man City contested their first knockout encounter in the 2022/23 Champions League quarter-finals. The game ended 1-1 after Joshua Kimmich converted from the penalty spot to cancel out Erling Haaland's opener, but it wasn't enough for Bayern following a 3-0 first-leg defeat at the Etihad Stadium. The Citizens went on to claim a maiden Champions League title, beating Inter Milan in the final.
