Match Day 6 of the 2012-2013 Champions League group stage. Bayern is coming off a 1-1 draw vs. Dortmund, although it's actually been 9 matches since we lost (to Leverkusen on October 28). But, as we well know, BATE has enough to beat us if they play their game and catch a few breaks. Your line-ups:

Shaqiri - Kroos - Mueller

Tymoschuk - Schweisnteiger

Contento - Boateng - van Buyten - Rafinha

Neuer

For BATE Borisov

Kontsevoy - Hleb - Rodionov

Volodko - Oledhnovich - Baha

Polyakov - Radkov - Bordachev - Filipenko

Gorbunov

Viva viva FC Bayern!
