The Spanish heavyweights have won three of their last four games on Munich turf, drawing the other, and although they lost the first leg, things might have turned out very differently if Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. hadn't squandered a hatful of golden opportunities. The Frenchman finally got the better of an inspired Manuel Neuer deep into the second half, but all too often Madrid's forwards failed to hit the target.
Dayot Upamecano, a player Mbappe knows well from international duty, is an accident waiting to happen at this level, and made numerous gaffes last week that went unpunished. Luis Diaz, on the other hand, tormented his former Liverpool teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold, the Colombian's opener coming from a trademark defensive lapse.
Harry Kane slotted home the match-winning goal despite being short of fitness, and his condition remains of concern to Vincent Kompany, who chose to rest him at the weekend. In Diaz, Michael Olise and Jamal Musiala, however, the Bavarians have a high-class, multi-faceted front line well-equipped to lighten the England star's load.
