Munich - FC Bayern Munich's U19s can make history on Wednesday.
The team has never before been able to reach the quarter-finals of the UEFA Youth League.
The opponent at Bayern's home campus is Feyenoord Rotterdam.
It will be a difficult task for Munich against the winners of Group E.
After Bayern finished second in Group A, they had to go to Switzerland in the playoffs.
Coach Rene Maric celebrated his first win as coach of the Bayern juniors against FC Basel.
The new coach wants to score the next coup against the Dutch and move into the quarter-finals.
He has to do without some players.
Adam Aznou will be missing due to a yellow card suspension, Max Mergner and Michael Scott are out with knee injuries.
Robert Ramsak is questionable for the duel.

Maric can rely on the match winner against Basel again on Wednesday.
Lovro Zvonarek, who has been in Thomas Tuchel's Bundesliga squad almost every week since the beginning of the year, scored both of FCB's goals against FC Basel.
The U19 captain will lead the team onto the pitch against Rotterdam.
He wants to make history with Bayern against Feyenoord.
But legendary striker Robin van Persie's team won't make it easy for the Munich team.
In the group stage, the 40-year-old's team only lost once against Atlético Madrid.
The Dutch are particularly present in the final minutes.
Twice they decided a group game in their favor shortly before the end.
In the group first leg against Atlético they scored the winning goal in the 90th minute, against Celtic Glasgow they turned a deficit with two late goals (90th/90th+5).
Will the FC Bayern youngsters qualify for the round of the last eight for the first time against Feyenoord Rotterdam?
We will be on site at the Campus Stadium on Ingolstädter Straße and will be reporting on the live ticker from 4 p.m.
