SEE ALSO | Champions League TV guide Bayern Munich remain one of the favourites for the competition this season, despite their recent blip against Arsenal. The German giants have enjoyed a pretty imperious campaign so far, as documented in the Bundesliga, where they are eight points clear of RB Leipzig in 2nd. Harry Kane's goalscoring continues to astound, with the England captain scoring yet another hat-trick at the weekend, as they beat Stuttgart 5-0. That's now 28 goals in 22 games for the former Spurs man this term, with Thomas Tuchel praying his star man doesn't pick up any kind of long-term injury between now and the end of the season. Alphonso Davies (knee) and Jamal Musiala (calf) are both still sidelined, with Luis Diaz also suspended. Rui Borges's men are in great form heading into this encounter and are now 12 matches unbeaten in all competitions. The most recent in that sequence came in a 1-1 draw in the Lisbon Derby against Benfica last Friday at Estadio da Luz, with Pedro Goncalves finding the net in that one. In terms of absentees, Zeno Debast and Daniel Braganca are both still out with knee injuries, with Nuno Santos also expected to remain sidelined. Fotis Ioannidis returned from injury last time out against Benfica and should push for a start in Munich this week. Bayern 3-2 Sporting Sporting will be no pushovers, but Bayern are a different beast on home soil and it will be tough for the Portuguese side to stop their attacking flow.
