How to Watch on TV, Live Stream, Kick Off Time & Team News

European champions Bayern Munich proceed the defence of their Champions League crown on Tuesday as they head to Russia to face Lokomotiv Moscow.

The German champions kicked off this season’s European marketing campaign with an emphatic 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid final week, earlier than going one higher on the weekend with a 5-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt within the Bundesliga.

In the meantime, Lokomotiv Moscow will be happy with their opening night time of this season’s Champions League having come from behind to take some extent in a 2-2 draw with RB Salzburg.

Lokomotiv Moscow should be at their greatest in the event that they’re to blunt the razor-sharp Bayern assault on this one. This is 90min’s preview of the upcoming conflict.

For the guests Alphonso Davies misses out after he left the pitch in tears after selecting up an ankle damage early on within the weekend win over Eintracht Frankfurt. The membership have since confirmed he is unlikely to function for at the very least six weeks.

In the meantime, Serge Gnabry misses out after testing constructive for coronavirus and summer time signing Leroy Sané can be unlikely to function after selecting up a knee damage on the finish of September.

Lokomotiv Moscow: Guilherme; Zhivoglyadov, Corluka, Murilo, Rybus; Zhemaletdinov, Kulikov, Krychowiak, Miranchuk; Smolov, Eder

Bayern Munich: Neuer; Pavard, Sule, Alaba, Hernandez; Kimmich, Tolisso, Goretzka; Muller, Lewandowski, Coman

Lokomotiv Moscow have loved a stable begin to the season and sit simply six factors off prime spot within the Russian Premier League, though Saturday’s defeat to relegation threatened Rotor has seen them lose floor on leaders Spartak Moscow.

Die Roten look to be getting again to their greatest after a shaky begin to the season. A 4-1 defeat at Hoffenheim in September appears to have acted as a wake-up name for Hansi Flick’s males and so they’ve gone on to win each sport since.

This is how each side have fared of their final 5 outings in all competitions.

Lokomotiv Moscow

Lokomotiv Moscow 1-2 Rotor (24/10)
RB Salzburg 2-2 Lokomotiv Moscow (21/10)
Lokomotiv Moscow 1-0 FC Ulfa (17/10)
Lokomotiv Moscow 2-1 Khimki (4/10)
CSKA Moscow 0-1 Lokomotiv Moscow (27/9)

Bayern Munich

Eintracht Frankfurt 0-5 Bayern Munich (24/10)
Bayern Munich 4-0 Atletico Madrid (21/10)
Arminia Bielefeld 1-4 Bayern Munich (17/10)
Bayern Munich 4-3 Hertha Berlin (4/10)
Bayern Munich 3-2 Borussia Dortmund (29/9)

After a stuttered begin to the marketing campaign Bayern are trying again to their imperious greatest. Their opening day thrashing of Atletico may have executed little to settle Lokomotiv Moscow nerves as they give the impression of being to stifle probably the most prolific attacking lineups in Europe.

The Russians will be happy with their level away at RB Salzburg on the opening day, although they will do nicely to return away from this one with something aside from an emphatic defeat.

Prediction: Lokomotiv Moscow 0-3 Bayern Munich
