How Bayern Munich could line up against Atletico Madrid

Sports Mole looks at how Bayern Munich could line up in Tuesday's Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid.

Bayern Munich will be looking to make it 16 Champions League victories in a row when they continue their Group A campaign away to Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night.

The European champions have already booked their spot in the knockout round of the 2020-21 competition, having won each of their four group matches to date, including a 4-0 success over Atletico in Munich.

Hansi Flick's side, who were 3-1 winners over Stuttgart in the Bundesliga on Saturday, will now be looking to move onto 15 points in the section.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how Bayern could line up against Diego Simeone's team.

Bayern will again be without the services of Alphonso Davies and Joshua Kimmich on Tuesday evening, while Bouna Sarr remains a doubt, having missed his side's last three matches.

The German champions will also be without Marc Roca due to the midfielder's red card against Red Bull Salzburg last week, but both Corentin Tolisso and Niklas Sule made their returns from recent issues against Stuttgart on Saturday.

Sule could now return to the heart of the defence alongside David Alaba, but the fact that Bayern are already through to the knockout round means that Tolisso could be rested.

Javi Martinez is in line for a start in the middle of the park, while Leroy Sane is also battling to be included in an attacking position, having featured off the bench against Stuttgart on Saturday.

Flick is expected to resist the temptation to make wholesale changes, though, with Serge Gnabry and Thomas Muller both likely to retain their spots in the XI.

Robert Lewandowski, meanwhile, should lead the attack, and the Poland international will be looking to add to the 15 goals that he has already managed in all competitions this season.
