Bayern Munchen has to head to Stadio Olimpico in Italy for this first leg of the Champions League last-16 knockout. It's a distraction as Bayern Munchen got off to a great start in Bundesliga action but their lead is only two points after two straight disappointing league games, a 3-3 DRAW with Arminia Bielefeld and a 2-1 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt. Arminia Bielefeld is the third-worst team in the league. The Bayern Munchen defense is struggling, slipping to seventh in the league 31 goals allowed in 22 matches, and they have to step out of league action here to face a talented Lazio offense. Lazio is ranked fourth in the 20-team Italian Serie A League netting 38 goals in 23 games. And they are a great home team, on a seven-game winning streak at home outscoring visitors 13-3, which includes wins over four Top 10 league teams. They also played a Champions League match last October at home beating Borussia Dortmund, 3-1. Borussia Dortmund is currently in sixth-place in the Bundesliga, so back home field. Play Lazio on the moneyline.
