In addition, they lost to their rival Olympique Marseille in the Round of 16 in the French Cup.On the other hand, Union Berlin, the biggest surprise in Europe this season, may put Bayern Munich and their hegemony in the Bundesliga in peril.

PSG's probable lineup:

The players who coach Christophe Galtier has the most doubts about are Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe. Following the French Cup encounter with Marseille, Messi experienced muscle issues, and Mbappe sustained a hamstring injury against Montpellier in Ligue 1. Both stars are based on game-time judgements.

PSG's probable lineup against Bayernis: Gianluigi Donnarumma, Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Sergio Ramos, Nuno Mendes, Marco Verratti, Vitinha, Fabian Pea, Neymar, Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbapp.

Bayern's probable lineup

The team chosen by Julian Nagelsmann for the opening leg of the Champions League Round of 16 match against PSG should be outstanding. The inclusion of Yann Sommer as a goalkeeper is the most obvious change from the group stage. It's crucial to keep in mind that Manuel Neuer suffered an injury when skiing following the World Cup.

Bayern Munich's probable lineup against PSG is: Yann Sommer, Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano, Matthijs de Ligt, Joao Cancelo, Leon Goretzka, Joshua Kimmich, Jamal Musiala, Kingsley Coman, Leroy Sane, and Thomas Muller.
