Champions League 2017/18: Ranking the attacking strength of the Semifinalists

Manchester City v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Quarter Final Second Leg

#3 - Bayern Munich

Sevilla FC v Bayern Muenchen - UEFA Champions League Quarter Final Leg One
The Bavarian giants are the only side in contention for a treble this season.

Bayern Munich have a stellar forward line and an attacking midfield unit that can churn things out of nothing, but I'd still rank them below the likes of Liverpool and Real Madrid.

They demolished all their Bundesliga opponents and won their 6th successive league title. Yet, Munich could only manage a 0-0 draw against Sevilla in the second leg of the quarterfinal but that was enough to take them through to the final 4.

Robert Lewandowski always finds himself in good poaching positions and he's probably one of the most clinical finishers of the era. He has five goals after his name in the Champions League this season.

A stat to take notice is that none of the Bayern Munich players are in the top 10 in the highest goal scorers list for this season's Champions League. Thomas Muller, Corentin Tolisso and Thiago found the net thrice for the German Champions.

Goals come in from different sources for their side and they managed to grab 23 goals in 10 games in the 2017/18 campaign. The stat is quite a significant one considering Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben haven't scored even once in Europe this season.

Jupp Heynckes will be wary that Real Madrid are a side who more often than not end up scoring home and away. Hence their side should somehow score a goal more than them and it'll be interesting to see who steps up for Bavarian giants.

On their day, they can sabotage anyone's mission. But it takes a lot to get the better of this Los Blancos side, who just humiliated the likes of Juventus and PSG. This is a huge test for them but they certainly have enough firepower in their arsenal to beat them.
