They sit second in a group that contains Lokomotiv Moscow and Salzburg and will be gunning for a win here to avoid any embarrassment.

Bayern have their own injury list to worry about as Joshua Kimmich and Alphonso Davies remain sidelined. Jerome Boateng could make his way back to the squad after picking up a muscle injury.
