After the 4-1 win at Lazio Rome, defending champion Bayern Munich wants to convince in the Champions League with another win on Wednesday (9 p.m. / Sky) in the second leg.

Coach Hansi Flick will do without Manuel Neuer, who has a cold, and rely on substitute Alexander Nübel in goal.

"We performed very well in the Champions League, including in the Bundesliga," says Flick.

“Even if we had a low performance in between, you can be very satisfied with the last few games.

This is currently our claim that we repeat this performance. "

Although Lazio would need a football miracle to advance, the Munich team doesn't just want to manage their lead.

"If we don't prepare well and don't take Lazio seriously, it could backfire very quickly," warned international Leroy Sané.

“It's a Champions League game.

Everyone knows that a lot can happen. "

Coman not in the final training

INITIAL SITUATION:

A team has never been eliminated from the European Cup or the Champions League after winning the first leg away by three goals.

“Lazio is a team that can play football very well.

So we have to be on our guard and call everything up, ”warned Flick.

Kingsley Coman could not take part in the final training due to muscular problems, Captain Neuer was absent with a cold.

Given the comfortable lead, Munich could cope with the failures.

Bayern will certainly not risk anything two and a half weeks before the Bundesliga summit against RB Leipzig.

CONTINUOUS DEBATE:

Since the announced resignation of Joachim Löw in the summer after the European Championship, soccer Germany has been debating the new national coach.

A hot candidate: Hansi Flick.

The 56-year-old is holding back on the question after referring to his Bayern contract, which will run until 2023, and targeted club successes last week.

“Our job is to simply leave out everything that is off the pitch and that we cannot influence,” said Flick.

Only Manchester United undefeated longer

OPPONENTS:

After three draws in three away games of this premier league season, Lazio is also aiming for a good performance in Munich.

“We're up against a great opponent, but we'll do our best,” assured coach Simone Inzaghi.

The Romans have only won one of their last 15 away games in the premier class.

In September 2003 there was a 2-0 win at Besiktas Istanbul.

RECORDS:

FC Bayern are facing their 19th quarter-finals - that would be the only record ahead of FC Barcelona (18), who have already been eliminated.

After the 4: 1 in Rome, Munich have been undefeated for 18 games in the premier class.

The club's record stands at 19 unbeaten Champions League games between March 2001 and April 2002. In the history of the competition, only Manchester United remained undefeated for longer, in 25 games without a loss from 2007 to 2009.
