Champions League 2025/2026: Pafos-Bayern Munich, the likely lineups

Pafos-Bayern Munich is a match valid for the second day of the Champions League bracket: a historic match for the Cypriots, who are making their home debut in the top continental competition against one of Europe&#8217s battleships. Pafos snatched a draw from Olympiakos on their away debut, but will have to pull off a miracle to score against the German champions, who started strongly both on their Champions League debut (tris at Chelsea) and in the league where they are still on full points after five games.

Kompany confirms the mouthpieces that have already yielded him 28 goals between Champions League and Bundesliga, 4 goals per game average. Kane is the central reference, Olise, Gnabry and Diaz joust behind him. In midfield Kimmich with Goretzka or Pavlovic.
