Robert Lewandowski misses out on Bayern Munich’s first leg tie against Real Madrid through injury. This would see Thomas Muller lead the line, and he will be supplemented by Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery in the final third.
Thiago Alcantara and Arturo Vidal will join former Real Madrid star Xabi Alonso in the middle of the park, while Javi Martinez will partner Jerome Boateng at the back.
