Team News: Bayern Munich, Barcelona unchanged for second leg

Bayern Munich and Barcelona are both unchanged for the second leg of their Champions League semi-final at the Allianz.

Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola has selected the same XI that faced Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final for the return match in Germany this evening.

David Alaba, Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben are all still on the sidelines for the German champions, while Guardiola has resisted the temptation to start Mario Gotze.

Robert Lewandowski will again play with a facial mask, while Thiago will operate at the head of a midfield diamond.

Barcelona, meanwhile, are also unchanged from the first leg. Neymar, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, who have 112 goals between them for the season, all start, while Ivan Rakitic is selected in midfield.

Jeremy Mathieu is back fit and available, but Javier Mascherano and Gerard Pique once again start in the centre of defence.

Bayern: Neuer; Rafinha, Boateng, Benatia, Bernat; Alonso, Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Thiago; Muller, Lewandowski

Barca: Ter Stegen; Alves, Pique, Mascherano, Alba; Rakitic, Busquets, Iniesta; Neymar, Suarez, Messi
