Paris Saint-Germain vs Bayern Munich: Gamethread

These were the games that the Champions League was meant for. As Bayern Munich travel to Paris to face PSG, the eyes of the world will be on these two behemoths of the game as they square off on the biggest stage in world football.

PSG will expect to have all their superstars lined up on pitch. Neymar, Cavani, Mbappe, Marco Verratti, Dani Alves ... the list goes on. Bayern Munich meanwhile will be without the services of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer - not an enticing prospect. Still, Bayern coach Carlo Ancelotti has plenty of quality to choose from. All of Bayern Munich’s attackers are fit and ready to go, a rarity for the Bavarians. In defense, left back David Alaba just returned to team training. it is unknown whether he will be available to start. If he doesn’t, Rafinha will once again have to fill in for the Austrian due to Juan Bernat’s injury.

It’s Bayern time.
