Kompany’s side has won 10 games in a row in all competitions and will be looking to maintain their 100% run on Wednesday at home.

Bayern defeated Chelsea 3-1 at the Allianz Arena in their opening Champions League game, before beating FC Pafos 5-1 away in the next round.

The German champions are heading into this game on the back of a 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga, as they picked up 21 points from their opening seven games.

Harry Kane is enjoying the form of his life, as he has scored in seven consecutive games, totalling 17 goals in all competitions already, including 12 in the Bundesliga.

Nicky Hayen’s Club Brugge are second in the Belgian league with 23 points, three behind Union St Gilloise.

Following their defeat against Atalanta, Blauw-Zwart have bounced back with two wins in a row, including a 1-0 victory over St Gilloise.

Club Brugge have lost twice and drawn once in their last five away games in all competitions, and it will require a Herculean effort to get a positive result against Bayern.

Having said that, they have scored in their last seven games in all competitions, and if they can stay solid at the back, they might be able to put pressure on Bayern.
