Though this Bayern which visits CSKA is not its football department you should not expect easy Top 16 game for the hosts.

It is easy to recall that in the first leg the Army Men played at full strength and Milos Teodosic who misses another game this week made career high 6 three-pointers in Munich. Victor Khryapa who can’t be named pure shooter added 4 more on the night so you have to find another ways to score. Besides Bayern which fights hard for the playoffs spot will have it’s starting guard Nihad Djedovic who did not play in the teams’ first encounter. So tough battle can be expected.

“Bayern is known with their aggressive defense and disciplined offense,“ CSKA head coach Ettore Messina said. ”We have to remember that they’ve beaten Real Madrid and forget about our first meeting. Because if we think that the win in Munich automatically grants us with the other win, we’ll make huge mistake. We have to play defense, to move the ball well if we want to win. And we have to remember that we are still in the race for two first spots in the group and the fight is not over.”
