Barcelona
Barcelona will again be missing Ronald Araujo for this match following groin surgery, while Andreas Christensen and Memphis Depay are also likely to remain on the sidelines.
The Catalan outfit suffered a fresh injury blow at the weekend, with Sergi Roberto dislocating his shoulder, so Hector Bellerin could come in for a start at right-back against Bayern.
Gavi suffered a blow to his abductor against Athletic but is expected to be available here, and he could potentially start alongside Ousmane Dembele and Robert Lewandowski in a front three.
Frenkie de Jong appears to have now worked his way into the starting side, and the Dutchman should keep his spot, while Marcos Alonso could get the nod over Alejandro Balde and Jordi Alba at left-back.
Barcelona possible starting lineup:
Ter Stegen; Bellerin, Kounde, E Garcia, Alonso; De Jong, Busquets, Pedri; Dembele, Lewandowski, Gavi
Bayern Munich
As for Bayern, Manuel Neuer, Lucas Hernandez, Leroy Sane and Bouna Sarr will miss out for the visitors on Wednesday night through injury.
Sadio Mane could lead the line for the Munich giants, with Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry set to feature in the wide areas, and Jamal Musiala as the number 10.
The back four picks itself due to Hernandez's absence, with Matthijs de Ligt in line to feature alongside Dayot Upamecano in the middle, while it is likely to be Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka as the midfield two.
Bayern Munich possible starting lineup:
Ulreich; Pavard, Upamecano, De Ligt, Davies; Kimmich, Goretzka; Coman, Musiala, Gnabry; Mane
Prediction: Barcelona 2-2 Bayern Munich
