This is the shock of this day in the Champions League. This Wednesday evening, FC Barcelona hosts Bayern Munich as part of the 3rd C1 day of the season. A gala poster which has established itself as a European classic for several years.
Largely victorious against Young Boys during the previous day with a score of 5 goals to 0, the Catalan club recovered well after conceding defeat in its first match against AS Monaco with a score of 2 goals at 1. First huge test against Bayern now.
Opposite, after having started their European campaign well by inflicting a scathing 9-2 on Dinamo Zagreb, Bayern Munich were surprised during the second day by Aston Villa (1 goal to 0 defeat). A misstep would not be welcome for the Munich club at this stage of the competition.
Information on FC Barcelona and its injured:
Five absent from the ranks of FC Barcelona for the reception of Bayern Munich: Marc-André ter Stegen, Andreas Christensen, Ferran Torres, Ronald Araujo and Eric Garcia will not be there.
Starting XI Penalty – Balde, Martinez, Cubarsi, Kound – De Jong, Casado – Raphinha, Pedri, Yamal – Lewandowski
Information on Bayern Munich and its injured:
Absentees and uncertainties: Hiroki Ito, Josip Stanisic, Sacha Boey and Pavlovic are absent. For his part, Jamal Musiala is still uncertain for the meeting.
Starting XI : Neuer – Davies, Kim, Upamecano, Guerreiro – Kimmich, Palhinha – Gnabry, Müller, Olise – Kane
FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich will play the attack on the Montjuic pitch. Both teams will be dangerous offensively and find the net on several occasions.
In good shape since the start of the season, Robert Lewandowski will hurt his former club this Wednesday. The Polish striker will be real poison for the Bayern Munich defense throughout the match.
Europe will witness a duel of giants between Lewandowski and Kane. The Englishman will respond to the Pole in this part where he will also find the way to goal on the Spanish pitch.
