Vincent Kompany faces defensive headaches with Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies, Hiroki Ito, and Raphael Guerreiro sidelined. Despite those setbacks, Bayern’s attack remains formidable. Harry Kane continues to lead the line. Meanwhile Luis Diaz has impressed with goals in his opening Bundesliga matches, offering pace and creativity from the left flank.

Chelsea are without several key players. This includes Mykhaylo Mudryk (suspension), Liam Delap, Romeo Lavia, and Benoit Badiashile through injuries. Joao Pedro, though not fully fit, has been influential with five goal contributions in just four league outings. Cole Palmer is expected to start after scoring in their recent draw with Brentford.
