Lazio Rome will try to create a surprise in these round of 16 by overthrowing Bayern Munich after a victory in the first leg. Lazio tactician Mauricio Sarri, as in the first leg, opted for a 4-3-3. However, three changes should be noted: Luca Pellegrini takes Hysaj’s place as left back, Vecino will be positioned in midfield alongside Matteo Guendouzi and Luiz Alberto, unlike Cataldi, on the bench. Finally, Mattia Zaccagni, injured in the first leg, will try to shine on the right side, while the Dane Gustav Isaksen has regained his position as replacement.
For Bayern Munich, Thomas Tuchel should once again adopt a 4-2-3-1, as in the first leg. However, the former PSG tactician must make up for numerous absences, like Noussair Mazraoui, Kingsley Coman and Dayot Upamecano, who is suspended. Starting the first leg, Min-Jae Kim will start on the bench, unlike Matthijs de Ligt and Eric Dier. Pavlovic will be positioned in midfield, alongside Joshua Kimmich. No surprise in the attacking quartet, the Frenchman Mathys Tel is on the bench. Back from injury, Alphonso Davies – who only played 27 minutes against Friborg this weekend (2-2) – will start on the bench.
