Line-ups confirmed for heavyweight Champions League clash


Bayern Munich are looking to cash in on a place in the Champions League semi-finals with another win over Real Madrid tonight.

The German champions put in an impressive performance at the Santiago Bernabeu last week, coming away from Spain with a 2-1 advantage over Los Blancos.

But you can never count out the most successful club in Europe, and Madrid will punish the Vincent Kompany’s side if they are not on their game in Munich.

The winners will face Paris Saint-Germain in the final four after their 4-0 aggregate win over Liverpool, with a place in the final at stake.
