Bayern Munich vs Atalanta – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Bayern Munich and Atalanta meet again in the Champions League Round of 16 second leg on Wednesday, with the Bundesliga side carrying a big advantage from the first leg.

Bayern Munich team news

The German giants are dealing with a major goalkeeping problem. First-choice captain Manuel Neuer is still out injured and will not feature.

Jonas Urbig, who began the first leg and then had to go off after suffering a concussion in the 6-1 win, is back in training and has passed initial tests but is still feeling some discomfort, so his involvement is uncertain.

Sven Ulreich is also unavailable after tearing a muscle against Bayer Leverkusen, which leaves 16-year-old Leonard Prescott in line to start in goal if Urbig is not cleared.

There are issues in other areas of the squad as well. Jamal Musiala has been ruled out of this game and is also a doubt for the upcoming Bundesliga match against Union Berlin.

Alphonso Davies picked up a hamstring injury in the first leg and will be missing for a while, while Hiroki Ito is still not close to returning to action.

Michael Olise and Joshua Kimmich are both suspended for this fixture after picking up yellow cards that triggered a one-match ban.

Bayern are also without several youngsters. Cassiano Kiala, David Santos and Wisdom Mike, who were previously part of the senior squad group, are all sidelined for the rest of the season, with the exception of Santos, who is expected to be back in April.

Up front, Harry Kane did not start any of Bayern’s last three matches. He came off the bench in the draw with Leverkusen, but could be eased back into action, given Bayern’s five-goal cushion. However, he has trained normally, and is still expected to be in contention.

Bayern Munich predicted lineup

Possible Bayern Munich starting XI: Prescott; Stanisic, Upamecano, Tah, Laimer; Goretzka, Pavlovic; Karl, Gnabry, Diaz; Jackson.

When will the match kick off?

The match will kick off at 8pm BST on Wednesday, 18th March.
