Bayern Munich vs Copenhagen Lineups and Last Match
Bayern
Bayern Munich made it four wins from four in Group A when they played host to Galatasaray last time out. A tight and tense game looked like it might be going to end goalless until ten minutes from time when Kane scored for Bayern and then doubled his and his team's advantage in the 86th minute.
Galatasaray pulled a goal back in stoppage time, but Bayern held on to claim another three points. Jamal Musiala, Matthijs de Ligt, Tarek Buchmann and Gabriel Marusic could all miss Wednesday's match through injury.
Predicted Lineup – Neuer (GK), Mazraoui, Upamecano, Davies, Kim, Goretzka, Kimmich, Kane, Coman, Sané & Müller
Copenhagen
Copenhagen came out on top against the ten men of Manchester United in their last outing in the Champions League, despite going two goals behind early on. Copenhagen managed to score two goals of their own to make the halftime scoreline 2-2 and with a one-man advantage after Marcus Rashofrd was sent off in the 42nd minute.
Man Utd still managed to go in front for a second time via a 69th-minute penalty, but a goal from Lukas Lerager brought the Danes back onto level terms.
Teenage substitute Roony Bardghji made a real name for himself, scoring the winning goal for Copenhagen with just three minutes of the 90 remaining. David Khocholava, Birger Meling and William Clem aren't expected to be back in action for Copenhagen until the new year and will therefore miss the trip to Munich.
Predicted Lineup – Grabara (GK), Ankersen, Vavro, Diks, Jelert, Falk, Claesson, Elyounoussi, Lerager, Gonçalves & Achouri
Starting Lineups
*Lineups are usually announced 1hr before kick-off
Player to Watch: Leroy Sane
The former Manchester City winger, Leroy Sane has been in fantastic form for Bayern this season.
The German international has chipped in with eight league goals and six assists for the German champions, linking up well with Kane.
We're backing Sane to impress once again this weekend as Bayern look to make it five wins from five in the Champions League.
