UCL Preview: Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid

Bayern Munich take on Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final tonight.

Bayern are chasing their sixth European Cup, but they will need their strongest team against the holders and 12-time European Cup winners.

This will be the third time since 2011/12 that the two sides have faced each other in the Champions League semi-finals, with the Germans progressing in 2011/12 and the Spaniards in 2013/14.

Manuel Neuer, Arturo Vidal and Kingsley Coman were the only Bayern Munich players to miss training on Monday ahead of the clash.

Chile midfielder Vidal is set to miss the rest of the season following knee surgery, and France winger Koman has been sidelined since February with an ankle issue. Goalkeeper Neuer last played in September because of a foot problem.

Zinedine Zidane’s men, on the other hand, have no fresh injury concerns after a weekend off from La Liga duty. Sergio Ramos is back from suspension while Nacho has returned to training.
