🗞️ Team News: Bayer Leverkusen

The Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso doesn’t have any fitness worries at all before this match thanks to a fully healthy squad ready to go.

We are thinking that Leverkusen look set to make use of the 4-2-3-1 formation for the game with Lukas Hradecky, Jeremie Frimpong, Odilon Kossounou, Edmond Tapsoba, Piero Hincapie, Robert Andrich, Exequiel Palacios, Moussa Diaby, Kerem Demirbay, Amine Adli and Florian Wirtz.

🗞️ Team News: Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann has multiple availability issues to deal with. Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (Back trouble), Lucas Hernández (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Manuel Neuer (Fracture of the lower leg) are not ready for selection.

We’re of the thinking that Bayern seem most likely to play in a 3-4-1-2 formation using Yann Sommer, Benjamin Pavard, Dayot Upamecano, Matthijs de Ligt, Joao Cancelo, Alphonso Davies, Leon Goretzka, Joshua Kimmich, Leroy Sane, Thomas Mueller and Sadio Mane.
