Upamecano and Goretzka are convincing
The first leg showed that it won’t be that easy. The favored Munich team struggled for a long time and didn’t get into the game at all for a half. But in the second half, the German record champions turned things around and turned the 1-1 half-time score into 3-1. Can the Munich team, who are weakened by injuries, be able to repeat that?
Dayot Upamecano and Leon Goretzka made their comeback after long injury breaks in the furious 4-0 win over Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, but there was still a question mark over their appearances before the game against Galatasaray. Before kick-off, there was certainty: the two shaky candidates could play.

Kimmich, who is serving a red card suspension in the Bundesliga and will not be available against Heidenheim, is eligible to play again against Galatasaray and will therefore be on the field from the start. He pushes Konrad Laimer onto the bench.
