Bayern Munich v Liverpool Team News

Good news for the Reds ahead of their trip to Munich is that Virgil van Dijk, who was suspended for the first leg that ended nils on the scoresheet in Liverpool, will gladly make a back-four alongside the likes of Andrew Robertson, Joel Matip and Trent Alexander-Arnold, as Joe Gomez and Dejan Lovren remain sidelined.

The English side have had two other goalless draws from their following four league games - including two morale-boosting home victories over Watford 5-0 and Burnley 4-2 - since the stalemate against Bayern last month but are with only one win from their past five away outings (D3 L1).

Bayern Munich will be more concerned about picking a starting IX for the return leg after Joshua Kimmich picked up a yellow card that leaves him out of the Liverpool match, and so misses Thomas Muller, who is still unavailable through suspension. Jerome Boateng is likely to return at centre-back after featuring in Bayern's 6-0 mauling of Wolfsburg at the weekend.

In contrast to Liverpool's form after meeting for the first time, the Germans have had a dominant record in the league having registered three consecutive wins, averaging 4.0 goals per game and will try to carry this confident mood over to the visit of the Reds on Wednesday night.

Teams' Potential Starting Line-ups:

Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1): Neuer; Alaba, Hummels, Boateng, Rafinha; Martinez, Alcantara; Ribery, Rodriguez, Gnabry; Lewandowski.

Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson; Robertson, Dijk, Matip, Alexander-Arnold; Henderson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum; Mane, Firmino, Salah.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Bayern Munich: Corentin Tolisso, Kingsley Coman, Thomas Muller, Joshua Kimmich, Arjen Robben.

Liverpool: Joe Gomez, Dejan Lovren, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain.
