Bayern Munich are hoping that injuries do not scupper their chances of overcoming Manchester United when the pair meet against in the Champions League. At stake is a place in the semi finals of the prestigious competition. Both clubs are often guaged by the success they can achieve both at home and in Europe, thus the Champions League trophy will rank high on their priorities. There are also past scores that will be on the agenda with the Germans seeking to avenge their unfortunate but dramatic defeat to the Red Devils in the last final of the 20th century. Bayern Munich lost to two late goals when Man Utd grabbed the trophy from them in the Champions League final that is often regarded as one of the greatest of all time.

There has been bad news on the injury front for Bayern Munich as reports have surfaced that Dutchman Arjen Robben could miss out. A calf injury has laid the winger down as he continues to battle injuries while his team’s offense could suffer without him. The pace and accurate passing has galvanised the club this season and without him in the lineup, manager Louis Van Gaal will have one less option going forward. There could also be more than meets the eye with the situation as the Germans can be rather good at making a meal of an issue where the real extent of the problem can only be known before the match. Robben could yet recover in time to feature against Man United.

There has only been good news for Manchester United. Two important players in Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand have been passed fit to take their place in the team. The pair will be joined by old heads Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes who will be no strangers to their opponents and the occasion after their involvement in the past Champions League final. This time they may not go into the first team, but Alex Ferguson would surely use them at some point during the Bayern Munich vs Man Utd live streaming football match as their experience would be useful. No matter what Ferguson chooses to do, there is no denying the fact that the game will be a special one for both teams and their fans.
