The Champions League game on Wednesday will see Bayern Munich go into battle with Atalanta. We have the latest player updates and predicted teams line ups.

Bayern Munich enter this fixture coming off the back of a 1-1 Bundesliga drawn game vs Bayer Leverkusen. It’s our opinion that Bayern look set to go for a 4-2-3-1 formation in the match, beginning the first half with Sven Ulreich, Josip Stanisic, Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, Konrad Laimer, Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala and Harry Kane.

Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany will be grateful not to have any fitness worries at all coming into this match owing to a fully healthy group to choose from. The players ineligible for this match because of suspension are Joshua Kimmich, Michael Olise and Bara Sapoko Ndiaye.

How Bayern Munich could look against Atalanta

In their last fixture, Atalanta drew 1-1 in the Serie A match with Inter Milan.
