The
German international spent three years with Jupp Heynckes’ side from 2006-2009
before he moved back to his hometown side Cologne.
Bayern were beaten by Chelsea in May in the
Champions League final and also were defeated at the same stage in 2010 by
Inter Milan.
Podolski admits their opponents have undoubted
quality and an excellent record in the competition, but believes both teams
have a chance of advancing to the quarter-finals.
“They played in the final in 2010 and last year,”
he told the club’s website.
“It’s a big club but we have the chance to win
against Bayern Munich. They have a very good team with big players.
“They have (Mario) Gomez up front, they have
(Franck) Ribery, (Bastian) Schweinsteiger, Philipp Lahm, Manuel Neuer.
“There are two matches, one at home, one away. Both
teams have the chance to win.”
