Coming up this Saturday, 22nd May, at the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, Bayern Munich meet Internazionale. Interestingly this is the first time that a Champions League Final will be played on a Saturday. The final traditionally takes place on a Wednesday. Even more interestingly regardless of the result the winner will take a place in their national football history as both teams stand to take the treble; something no German or Italian team has ever achieved.
History of play places the advantage on the side of Bayern Munich but this will be a tightly contested match with both teams desperate to take home that treble glory as well as the Champions League trophy itself.
The game will be watched by approximately 75,000 in the stadium alone. Here in Ireland you can catch the match live on Sky Sports 1 at 6pm and on RTE and Setanta Sports at 7pm, Saturday.
