Predicted team for Bayern Munich against FC Barcelona in UCL matchday 3
Bayern Munich got back to winning ways on Saturday after enduring a disappointing run of two draws and one defeat before the international break. The solitary defeat of the season came against Aston Villa in the Champions League on matchday two.
The Champions League football will resume this week. Bayern face an incredible challenge on matchday three as they travel to Spain for the clash against FC Barcelona. The Spanish club looks rejuvenated under former Bayern head coach Hansi Flick. They are one of the top contenders to win the Champions League this season.
However, Bayern have enjoyed a brilliant head-to-head record against FC Barcelona in the last four years. While the win against VfB Stuttgart was impressive, collecting all three points in Spain on Wednesday will be the biggest win for Vincent Kompany as the head coach of Bayern.
Since Bayern are playing three games in a week, Kompany may look to rotate the team. However, there are unlikely to be wholesale changes since FC Barcelona are a formidable side. Let us look at the possible starting XI for Bayern that will take the field against Barcelona on Wednesday.
