Bayern Munich team have won nine of their last 10 games following a 2-0 success at
Hertha Berlin on Saturday and they are closing in on another Bundesliga
crown. In Champions League, the German champions needed a remarkable
comeback plus extra-time to dispatch Juventus in the Round of 16, and
could only win 3-2 on aggregate against Benfica in the previous round.
They are winless in their last seven away games in the UEFA Champions League
knockout stages (four draws, three losses).
Holger Badstuber and
Arjen Robben are the only missing players for the Bavarians. At the
heart of defense, Javi Martinez and Alaba is expected to start as Jerome
Boateng has not played since hurting his groin in January and Sebastian
Rode could miss out because of illness. Up front Franck Ribery, Thiago
Alcantara, Thomas Muller and Douglas Costa will support Robert
Lewandowski.
Probable lineups:
Atletico Madrid: Oblak – Juanfran, Gimenez, Lucas Hernandez, Filipe Luis – Gabi, A.Fernandez, Saul Niguez, Koke – Griezmann, F.Torres.
Bayern Munich: Neuer – Lahm, Kimmich, J.Martinez, Alaba – Xabi Alonso – D.Costa, Vidal, T.Muller, Ribery – Lewandowski.
