Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Bayern Munich could line up for their Champions League quarter-final second leg with Paris Saint-Germain.

Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick has several injury concerns to work around for his side's second leg of their Champions League quarter-final with Paris Saint-Germain.

Star striker Robert Lewandowski has already confirmed that he will not be ready to return from a knee injury in time for this game, so Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting will line up at his former headquarters aiming to build on the goal he struck in last week's 3-2 first-leg defeat.

Serge Gnabry is already out after testing positive for COVID-19, while Kingsley Coman has emerged as a fresh doubt after coming off with a knee complaint against Union Berlin, but Flick does not believe his injury is too serious and he has made the journey.

Leon Goretzka was also ruled out of the weekend's draw due to a muscular problem and remains doubtful despite being included in the squad, so the veteran Javi Martinez may be required alongside midfield lynchpin Joshua Kimmich, especially with Marc Roca and Corentin Tolisso definitely out.

Two young full-backs in Bouna Sarr and Josip Stanisic were given the nod at the weekend, but the duo will make way here for Benjamin Pavard and Alphonso Davies, the latter of whom is well-rested after serving a domestic ban.

Davies is sure to get the nod on the left if Lucas Hernandez fails to overcome a bruised rib in time, and Flick has been hit with two more concerns in the heart of defence after Niklas Sule and Jerome Boateng suffered thigh and knee injuries respectively.

The latter has not been ruled out of this game, though, and is sure to partner David Alaba if Sule and Hernandez cannot play, but Boateng's possible absence would likely force Flick to field 18-year-old Tanguy Nianzou in the back four.

Bayern possible starting lineup:
Neuer; Pavard, Boateng, Alaba, Davies; Kimmich, Martinez; Sane, Muller, Coman; Choupo-Moting
