One of Bayern’s most important players will now miss the Allianz Arena meeting on compassionate leave, while several other key figures are also unavailable or doubtful.

Bayern Munich will be without Joshua Kimmich for their Champions League match against Arsenal following the sudden death of his father, Berthold. The club confirmed Kimmich will miss the fixture on compassionate leave after initially missing Tuesday's training session for personal reasons.
Bayern will also be without suspended winger Michael Olise and injured playmaker Jamal Musiala. Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer remains uncertain due to a foot issue, while head coach Vincent Kompany is doubtful to be on the touchline after battling a viral infection.
