On the eve of the match at Anfield three week ago, Bayern Munich seemed like a side that might not last the pace against Liverpool’s lightning attack. The turnround in their subsequent three matches has seen them score 12 goals while conceding just one. Bayern's Robert Lewandowski reacts during the German Bundesliga soccer match between Bayern Munich and VfL Wolfsburg in Munich, Germany, 09 March 2019. His opponent that night, Joshua Kimmich, is suspended for this match, and his absence is a serious headache for Bayern coach Niko Kovac. On the other flank, David Alaba has recently been injured, so Bayern have definite worries about being exposed to a fast counterattack.
