Bayern: Alphonso Davies, Hiroki Ito, Josip Stanisic and Manuel Neuer are out. Kompany could continue with Sacha Boey, Dayot Upamecano, Kim Min-jae and Raphael Guerreiro at the back with Sven Ulreich taking over. Joao Palhinha, Harry Kane and Kingsley Coman are out, so Michael Olise, Jamal Musiala, Leroy Sane and Thomas Muller should be in attack with Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka in midfield.
Conceivable Bayern XI: Neuer; Boey, Upamecano, Kim, Guerreiro; Kimmich, Goretzka; Olise, Musiala, Sane; Müller.
Prediction
Even without Kane and a few other regulars, Bayern need to win this match quite easily and take another step towards the knockout stage against a Shakhtar team who are understandably a fading force given their difficult flow times. Select: Shakhtar 0, Bayern 3
