pinches in terms of

personnel.

Almost all of the attacking stars are fit, but coach Mauricio Pochettino, who only replaced Thomas Tuchel at the beginning of the year, said that due to the failures he might only play with two midfielders.

FC Bayern against PSG in the live ticker: Flick before difficult defense decision

Update from April 7th, 7.10 p.m.:

Who can compete with the best tonight in the quarter-finals of the Champions League against PSG?

While the offensive arises almost by itself after the failures of Robert Lewandowski and Serge Gnabry, coach Hansi Flick is spoiled for choice on the defensive.

In Leipzig, Niklas Süle and Lucas Hernandez replaced Jerome Boateng and Alphonso Davies, who were suspended in the Bundesliga.

Both of course want to return to their traditional place in the premier class.

With this difficult question, Flick could now help the final against PSG last year.

Back then, Boateng injured himself early in the game and had to be replaced by Süle.

The national player had only just healed his cruciate ligament rupture and only made short appearances at the final tournament.

In the final he suddenly had to play and helped to keep the zero against the Paris offensive trio Neymar, Mbappe and Di Maria.

Left-back Davies showed one of his weaker games in the Champions League in the final.

For Lucas Hernandez speaks his strength in a fight.

In addition, the Frenchman should be particularly motivated against his colleagues from the French national team.

Update from April 7th, 4:45 p.m.:

The countdown is on!

In a few hours there will be a new edition of the previous year's Champions League final.

FC Bayern is back in top form in time for the quarter-finals against PSG.

The Munich team recently celebrated seven competitive games in a row - it was only more this season in autumn, when FCB lined up ten wins.

The opponents from Paris are completely different.

PSG won only two of their last five competitive games.

FC Bayern against PSG in the live ticker: Is Flick upset the defense?

Update from April 7, 12:52 p.m.:

The Champions League cracker is getting closer!

Hansi Flick can't bet on his top team today, with Serge Gnabry and Robert Lewandowski two important players are out.

On the offensive, the starting XI will most likely not change - Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting will most likely also start against Paris.

Thomas Müller, Kingsley Coman and Leroy Sané will probably start behind him.

The duo Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich also remain in the midfield headquarters.

On the other hand, it gets exciting in defense.

Alphonso Davies and Jerome Boateng push into the starting XI, but it would not be surprising if Flick relies on the same back four (Pavard, Süle, Alaba, Hernandez) as against Leipzig.

After all, she played to zero.

This is also supported by the fact that Hansi Flick is generally not a fan of rotation.

If Flick did set up Boateng, it would be tantamount to a statement in the direction of Uli Hoeneß.

Which team can play?

L'Equipe

after the recent 1-0 draw against the new league leaders Lille, not referring to the distance to the Bavarian capital.

You play “against the currently best team on the continent.

But we are optimistic.

We've already eliminated Barcelona. ”As a reminder: Barca went down 8-2 against FC Bayern in the quarter-finals of the previous season - but that was last year ...
