Champions League Preview: Bayern Munich - Juventus

The Old Lady have won all five last-eight games against German opposition, but will be up against last year's Champions League finalists, who are in stunning form of their own

Bayern Munich could welcome back Jerome Boateng and Bastian Schweinsteiger, who both missed the 2-0 second-leg defeat to Arsenal, for irs quarterfinal showdown with Serie A champions Juventus.

However, Javi Martinez is suspended for the clash, which means Luiz Gustavo should replace the Spaniard. Long-term absentee Holger Badstuber remains sidelined with ruptured knee ligaments.

Meanwhile, Brazilian center back Dante and Philipp Lahm are in danger of missing the return leg in Turin on April 10 should they pick up a booking in this encounter.

Juventus, meanwhile, has concerns over the fitness of attacker Sebastian Giovinco, who was scythed down by Esteban Cambiasso in  the 2-1 Derby d'Italia victory over Inter, although he has been included in the 22-man squad.

Mirko Vucinic's is recovering from flu, which means Fabio Quagliarella and Alessandro Matri are likely to be Conte's preferred striking partnership, although Vucinic could be fit to feature.

Stephan Lichtsteiner, Arturo Vidal and Claudio Marchisio are walking a disciplinary tightrope as a booking incurred here would mean they miss the next match.
