  • M. Cardozo (Thigh Injury) is sidelined.
  • S. Gnabry (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
  • C. Kiala (Ankle Injury) is sidelined.
  • W. Mike (Hip Injury) is sidelined.
  • B. Ndiaye (Inactive) is sidelined.

None of Bayern’s key attacking leaders are listed as missing: H. Kane (13 goals, 2 assists) and L. Díaz (7 goals, 3 assists) are available, while chief creator M. Olise (5 goals, 6 assists) is also expected to feature.

Paris Saint Germain Availability

Paris Saint Germain also have important issues.

  • L. Chevalier (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
  • A. Hakimi (Thigh Injury) is sidelined.
  • Q. Ndjantou (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.

A. Hakimi, with 6 assists in the competition, is a major blow down the right. However, leading attackers K. Kvaratskhelia (10 goals, 5 assists), O. Dembélé (6 goals, 2 assists), Vitinha (6 goals, 1 assist) and D. Doué (5 goals, 4 assists) remain available.

Impact Summary

Bayern lose depth options but retain virtually all of their core attacking output, led by H. Kane and supported by L. Díaz and M. Olise. Paris Saint Germain’s main concern is creative supply from wide areas without A. Hakimi, reducing one of their top assist sources, but their primary scorers and creators in advanced roles are intact.
