Carlo Ancelotti's men eased past Anderlecht in their opener, but there is cause for concern tonight.

Bayern have made six changes to their side that drew 2-2 against Wolfsburg. Javi Martinez, Nikas Sule, David Alaba, James Rodriguez, Corentin Tolisso and Thiago Alcantara all come into the team following the club's underwhelming outing last time out.
