🗞️ Team News: Bayern Munich
Manuel Neuer (Fracture of the lower leg) and Raphaël Guerreiro (Fitness) are unavailable for Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel.
In our view, Bayern will probably use a 4-2-3-1 system for this game featuring Sven Ulreich, Konrad Laimer, Dayot Upamecano, Min-Jae Kim, Alphonso Davies, Leon Goretzka, Joshua Kimmich, Leroy Sane, Thomas Mueller, Serge Gnabry and Harry Kane.
ℹ️ Team News: Bayer Leverkusen
Due to a fully healthy group to pick from, the Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso doesn’t have any fitness worries to speak of before this clash.
It’s our belief that Leverkusen could decide to play in a 3-4-2-1 system, giving starts to Lukas Hradecky, Odilon Kossounou, Jonathan Tah, Edmond Tapsoba, Jeremie Frimpong, Alex Grimaldo, Robert Andrich, Granit Xhaka, Jonas Hofmann, Florian Wirtz and Victor Okoh Boniface.
🧠 Prediction
We’re of the view that Bayern Munich will probably stay in control for long periods of time and should be able to convert a few of the chances that they create.
However, Bayer Leverkusen may well find it hard to make a breakthrough although we do reckon that they could well end up converting at least once.
Our tip is for a controlled 3-1 winning score for Bayern Munich at full-time.
