Bayern Munich faces crucial attacking decisions for their Champions League clash against Arsenal, with Harry Kane and Serge Gnabry key figures for Vincent Kompany’s side as they aim to overcome suspensions and injuries at the Emirates.
According to a report from Yahoo Sport UK, Bayern Munich are set to field a near-full strength side in their upcoming Champions League clash against Arsenal, with major injury concerns eased.
The report notes that Joshua Kimmich, who had been doubtful, is now confirmed to start. Alongside him, Serge Gnabry and Michael Olise will also be available following earlier fitness questions.
The projected Bayern XI is reported as: Manuel Neuer in goal; a back four of Kimmich, Matthijs de Ligt, Eric Dier, and Raphaël Guerreiro; Konrad Laimer and Leon Goretzka as holding midfielders; Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sané, and Michael Olise behind the lone striker Harry Kane.
The return of the trio is a big boost for Bayern’s hopes in the tie, giving manager Vincent Kompany more tactical flexibility and experience in key attacking positions.
While Arsenal will remain a tough opponent, Bayern’s relatively clean bill of health positions them strongly for what is expected to be a tightly contested Champions League battle.
