Bayern Munich and Real Madrid face each other this Tuesday in the semi-final first leg of the Champions League (9 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this gala match.
An exceptional European culture, stars at all levels, two great coaches and 20 big-eared cups on the table: Bayern Munich-Real Madrid remains a fantastic clash between two dinosaurs of European football. Respectively opposed to Arsenal and Manchester City in the quarter-final, these two big names were not really favorites in the previous round, but their ability to trap these two big British clubs testifies to all their strength.
For this first round, Thomas Tuchel’s Bayern would be well advised to take an option on qualification. Recent Champions League history demonstrates just how hostile the Bernabeu can be on the road to the final. In 2018, the two clubs had already faced each other in the knockout phase, and it was Real, then coached by Zinédine Zidane, who had the last word. But Carlo Ancelotti knows the Bavarian house too well to let himself be intoxicated by this past…
The expected compositions
Bayern Munich : Neuer – Davies, de Ligt, Dier, Kimmich – Laimer, Goretzka – Sané, Müller, Gnabry – Kane.
real Madrid : Lunin – Vazquez, Rüdiger, Tchouaméni, Mendy – Camavinga, Kroos, Valverde – Bellingham – Vinicius, Rodrygo.
Where to watch the game ?
