"Bayern have managed to win all five of their competitive games this season. Along with positive results, Kompany's men have delivered impressive performances. They have looked hungry out of possession as the team has been pressing well as a unit. On the ball, Die Roten have several difference makers which make them one of the teams to watch in Europe."
"Bayern didn't have a single player injured during the international break, but they ended up suffering a minor setback against Hamburger SV on Saturday. Raphael Guerreiro had to come off in the second half due to an injury. The Portuguese defender will not be fit to play against Chelsea on Wednesday. Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala, and Hiroki Ito remain the long-term absentees for Bayern ahead of their clash against Chelsea."
Bayern Munich face Chelsea at Allianz Arena to begin their Champions League campaign after winning all five competitive matches this season. The team has pressed well out of possession and possesses multiple creative difference-makers on the ball. Raphael Guerreiro suffered an injury against Hamburger SV and will miss the Chelsea match. Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala, and Hiroki Ito remain long-term absentees. Manuel Neuer is expected to start after another clean sheet, while Dayot Upamecano and Jonathan Tah are projected as the center-back pairing. Josip Stanisic will play left-back and Konrad Laimer right-back. Leon Goretzka is likely to partner Joshua Kimmich in midfield.
