Having stopped working to settle the tie at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich travel to the Santiago Bernabeu intending to beat Real Madrid on their home grass. It’s an unenviable scenario to be in, intensified by the crazy injury crisis that has actually struck the Bavarians in current weeks.
Thomas Tuchel deals with a near-impossible job. If he accomplishments, all the failures of the last eighteen months will be forgotten. If he stops working, then what was everything for?
Team news
Things might be much better. Raphaël Guerreiro runs out the video game with injury, as are Bouna Sarr, Kingsley Coman, and Sacha Boey.

Thomas Müller, on the other hand, remained the whole video game versus VfB Stuttgart, with the presumption that he was being rested for the second leg at the Bernabeu. If that wasn’t the case, then why keep him on the bench for a whole 90 minutes?
Thomas Tuchel might yet have some surprises in shop. For now, aside from Harry Kane, Eric Dier, Manuel Neuer, and Joshua Kimmich, no gamer can be thought about a guaranteed starter. A most likely lineup is noted below, however there are a lot of other mixes he could pick rather:
