From the source

Bayern Munich faces a massive Champions League test against Atlético Madrid, but Vincent Kompany’s side will travel to Spain dealing with an increasingly difficult injury situation.

The question is whether Bayern has enough healthy players available to overcome one of Europe’s most difficult opponents, particularly away from home. The injury list is becoming rather ridiculous.

Ismael Saibari suffered a syndesmotic ligament tear in his right ankle against Borussia Dortmund and has already undergone surgery. According to Bild, he is expected to miss at least three months.
