FC Bayern will play the round of 16 second leg in the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain with the same formation as last time in the Bundesliga.
In the Allianz Arena, coach Julian Nagelsmann also trusts the line of defense deployed in the 2-1 win over VfB Stuttgart. Josip Stanisic is supposed to stop the world cup top scorer Kylian Mbappé, who is playing from the start this time, on the right side. Mbappé was only substituted on after the break after an injury in Munich’s 1-0 win in the first leg.
The Bayern team is again led by Thomas Müller as captain. As against VfB, attackers Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sané and Sadio Mané are initially on the bench.
In addition to Mbappé, world champion Lionel Messi attacks the guests. Former Bayern pros Renato Sanches and Juan Bernat are there as substitutes.
