Vincent Kompany’s men are on a phenomenal run of form at the moment. They have been performing well across all competitions and will be looking to continue their positive run of form. The Bavarians will be the visitors for their upcoming UCL outing, but they will be confident.
Bayern Munich are a strong attacking side, but Real Madrid at the Bernabeu is going to be a tough challenge for them. The Bundesliga side have Harry Kane, Michael Olise, Luis Diaz, Nicolas Jackson and Serge Gnabry, who have been some important players in their final third.

Vincent Kompany was undecided on Harry Kane starting against Madrid. But the striker did train ahead of the match and is in a good position to feature in the match.
“It was important that he did a lot of training today. I don’t think he’s lost his rhythm. We’ll wait until tomorrow and then decide. Everyone’s available apart from Sven Ulreich. We have a great squad and are ready for the two legs,” said Kompany on Kane’s fitness.
The 32-year-old was a part of the final training session and as per Bayern Munich‘s director, Max Eberl, Harry Kane is feeling good.
The Englishman is on a top run of form and his addition to the squad is going to help the Bavarians while being away from home. In the ongoing UEFA Champions League campaign, Harry Kane has scored 10 goals in nine matches. This also makes him the top goal scorer for his side in the competition.
