Team news and players to watch
Bayern’s official briefing ahead of the 3 November 2026 match listed Jamal Musiala, Luis Díaz, Serge Gnabry, Ismael Saibari and Bara Ndiaye as unavailable. Assistant Aaron Danks was preparing the team while head coach Vincent Kompany recovered from illness. Manuel Neuer and Michael Olise had travelled, but Bayern had not guaranteed their involvement.
Harry Kane was Bayern’s main attacking reference point, while Joshua Kimmich helped organise play in midfield. For Atlético, Julián Álvarez offered movement and finishing in attack, with Diego Simeone’s side relying on compact defending and quick transitions. Those observations describe the pre-match options, not a confirmed starting lineup or a prediction of the outcome.
