- Jamal Musiala, Aphonso Davies, Tom Bischof and Hiroki Ito are injured and will not be in action for Bayern Munich.
Player(s) to watch:
- Marius Wolf is going to play a crucial part in helping his side stand a chance against the German giants. The 30-year-old can control the midfield well and will be looking to step up so that he can help his side in the attacking front. He will be looking to rotate the ball well and will play a major role in keeping the ball away from the opposition.
- Harry Kane has scored five goals in the last two games for Bayern Munich. Harry Kane first scored a sensational hat-trick against RB Leipzig, then went on to score a brace in the DFB-Pokal fixture. He is in flying form at the moment and is going to be a menace to the opponent’s defence.
