Kompany is sidelined with meningitis, and assistant coach Aaron Danks will lead the team. Ismael Saibari and Serge Gnabry are out with injuries, and Michael Olise's availability is uncertain.

Bayern is under pressure after two consecutive draws in the Champions League and currently sits 14th in the group stage standings with five points. They need to pick up three points to stay in contention for a spot in the top 8 and direct qualification for the Round of 16. Their last three matches against Atlético Madrid have been positive, with no losses.

Bayern has never secured a victory against Atlético Madrid in the Spanish capital. The two clubs have faced each other eight times, with Bayern winning four matches and Atlético winning two, and two draws. Bayern hopes to change their record in Madrid on their fourth attempt.
