Bayern Munich hope to be boosted by the return of teenage star Lennart Karl for Wednesday's do-or-die Champions League showdown with Paris Saint-Germain.
Karl has missed the last month with a muscle injury, but returned to training last week ahead of the dramatic 3-3 draw with Heidenheim at the weekend.
The 18-year-old is not expected to start against PSG, but a place on the bench is a possibility for a player who has scored nine goals from midfield this season.
Otherwise, it is a case of as you were for head coach Vincent Kompany, with Serge Gnabry (thigh) and Raphael Guerreiro (hamstring) still sidelined.
Kompany attempted to rest a number of his key men at the weekend, with the Bundesliga title already wrapped up, but Harry Kane, Luis Diaz, Michael Olise and Joshua Kimmich were all summoned from the bench at half-time with the club trailing. Olise broke Heidenheim hearts with an 101st-minute equaliser.
Manuel Neuer and Dayot Upamecano were given the weekend off, but Kompany will revert to his strongest possible XI on Wednesday evening.
“We’re not going to change our style of play in three days and just sit back and defend,” Kimmich said at the weekend.
“We have to win, regardless of whether it’s another 5-4, a 3-2, or a 1-0 victory.”
