The Bavarians will be without French defender Benjamin Pavard, as he nurses an ankle injury. That could see Joshua Kimmich drop into right-back or Alvaro Odriozola may start. Kingsley Coman and Niklas Sule are the other two injured players, while new signing Leroy Sanè is ineligible to play. Robert Lewandowski will spearhead the attack as usual, while Serge Gnabry and Thomas Muller look sure starters in the offensive midfield trio. Ivan Perisic and Philippe Coutinho are in contention for the remaining berth.
Christian Pulisic and Cesar Azpilicueta are both sidelined after going off injured against Arsenal, while Jorginho and Marcos Alonso are both suspended. Pedro, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Billy Gilmour are also injured while N'Golo Kantè and Willian are not 100% fit. As a result, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Mason mount are likely to flank Olivier Giroud or Tammy Abraham upfront. Emerson Palmieri and Reece James will start as wing backs, with Mateo Kovacic and Ross Barkley in the middle of the park.
Chelsea (3-4-3): Caballero; Zouma, Christensen, Rudiger; James, Barkley, Kovacic, Emerson; Mount, Giroud, Hudson-Odoi
