The German side will play their third match in Champions League Group A.

Bayern Munich are leaders of the Champions League Group A standings. In their debut they got a valuable 4-3 victory over Manchester United at Allianz Arena and then beat Copenhagen 2-1 in Denmark. That is why they have 6 points, 2 more than Galatasaray.

 

Precisely the Turkish team will be their next opponents. It will not be an easy match, as they achieved an important victory at Old Trafford against Manchester United and so far they are undefeated in the tournament. In addition, they will play at the Nef Stadium in Istanbul and will have the support of more than 50,000 fans, who are excited with the level that the team has shown at the beginning of this season.

After the international break, Bayern Munich beat Mainz 05 3-1 last Saturday and remain in third place in the Bundesliga standings, two points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen and just one behind Stuttgart. Despite having had only three days off, coach Thomas Tuchel decided to repeat most of the players in the squad again on Tuesday.

Bayern Munich's starting lineup in Turkey will be: Sven Ulreich; Noussair Mazraoui, Kim Min-Jae, Matthijs De Ligt, Alphonso Davies; Konrad Laimer, Joshua Kimmich; Leroy Sane, Jamal Musiala, Kingsley Coman; Harry Kane. In addition, on the bench will be Daniel Peretz, Bouna Sarr, Frans Kratzig, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Eric Choupo-Moting, Mathys Tel and Thomas Muller.

 

For them, too, it is a great opportunity

Bayern Munich know that if they can get a win they will get closer to the goal of qualifying for the round of 16. But Galatasaray also need to win, as in that case they will become the only leaders of the group with 7 points. The coach Okan Buruk chose this XI: Fernando Muslera; Sacha Boey, Davinson Sanchez, Abdulkerim Bardakci, Kazimcan Karatas, Kaan Ayhan, Lucas Torreira, Mateus Tete, Kerem Akturkoglu, Wilfried Zaha, Mauro Icardi.
