📰 Team News: Bayern Munich

Leroy Sané (Inflammation of pubic bone), Kingsley Coman (Adductor injury), Sacha Boey (Torn muscle bundle), Bouna Sarr (Cruciate ligament tear) and Tarek Buchmann (Torn muscle bundle) aren’t available for Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel.

It seems likely that Bayern look set to go for a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game, beginning the first half with Manuel Neuer, Joshua Kimmich, Min-Jae Kim, Eric Dier, Alphonso Davies, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Leon Goretzka, Thomas Mueller, Jamal Musiala, Raphael Guerreiro and Harry Kane.

📋 Team News: Real Madrid

Out of a mainly available squad, there is just a single fitness worry for the Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti to contend with. David Alaba (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be in action. Daniel Carvajal will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

We reckon that Los Blancos might make use of a 4-4-2 system, starting the game with Andriy Lunin, Lucas Vazquez, Aurelien Tchouameni, Antonio Ruediger, Ferland Mendy, Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, Toni Kroos, Rodrygo, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior.

💭 Prediction

In our opinion, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich may well both score, with little between these two teams.

We’ll see, but this looks like it could end up all-square. That is why we are leaning toward a very even match with a score draw at the end of the 90 minutes.
