Bayer Leverkusen v Bayern Munich: Match Preview
Bayern Munich will have to mess up quite severely if they want to throw away their spot in the quarter-finals of this season's UEFA Champions League.
The Bavarians won 3-0 in the first leg thanks to a Kane brace and a further strike from Musiala but will be without one of their key men for the visit of Xabi Alonso's side.
Veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is set to miss out with a calf injury, and their long-time number one may not feature again until after the March international break as a result.
Leverkusen are in something of a rut and lost 2-0 against Werder Bremen at the weekend, meaning the gap is now eight points at the top of the Bundesliga table.
Florian Wirtz will also miss out for Alonso's side, which comes as a huge blow given his form so far in the UEFA Champions League this season. His six goals in the competition have propelled Leverkusen to this stage but it now appears as if their European adventure this term may be coming to an end.
