Bayern are unbeaten in 23 and top of the Bundesliga at 18 points from 8, 27 scored and 8 conceded.
Atlético's record is the same idea with a split in it. Seven straight wins in La Liga, second place, 28 points.
In Europe: four points from three, 16th in the league phase, beaten at Liverpool, held by Stuttgart. One competition running hot, the other not started.
The last two times these clubs met, Bayern won 4-0 and 1-0. The last one finished 1-1, December 2020.
Bayern have scored in every one of their last nine Champions League games on the road, and Kane carries the Ballon d'Or into this one.
Atlético are missing Hjulmand on a red card, with Koke and Cardoso racing fitness.
🎯 Bayern Munich to win.

Andoni Iraola confirmed he has not received or sought an explanation from Pro Ref regarding the decision not to award Liverpool a penalty for Jurriën Timber’s shirt-pull on Alexander Isak 😳
“I didn’t ask for an explanation and I haven’t received an explanation, no. I told you what I thought about the penalties at the time but, honestly, I don’t have the time [to ask Pro Ref].
There is just two days between games and I have been preparing for Fenerbahce.”
Andoni Iraola admitted in Istanbul on Wednesday that his Liverpool side must start improving more generally in front of goal after analyzing Sunday's 1-0 loss to Arsenal, which marked the first time the side did not have a shot on target at Anfield in 442 games 😳
Roma left four starters in Italy and their No.1 didn't make the flight either. Dybala's calf, Pellegrini's thigh, Kone's muscle and Svilar's toe, all on the same morning they fly into Manchester.
They've walked into this ground four times and never left with a result 📉 Three goals in total across those four visits, and never more than two in a single night.
Roma have let 5 goals in across 3 games in this competition, 4 of them to Real Madrid on their own patch. Their only European trip ended 1-1 in Istanbul. One away game is a short sample but the away column still reads zero wins.
2.8 goals a game sounds devastating until you check the expected goals and find 2.28. Roma are scoring above the chances they create and that kind of overperformance has a habit of correcting itself on the road against a side that presses.
Kone's absence leaves Roma light in the middle and that is where United hurt teams. Bruno's already looking in behind for Mbeumo before Roma can reset their shape, and a patched midfield having to turn and run towards their own goal is how Old Trafford nights get away from visiting sides.
United's only home night in this competition finished 4-0. Mbeumo has 4 league goals, Bruno has 4 in all competitions and takes the penalties, and 74,146 won't let Roma settle.
🎯 Manchester United to win.Four times Roma have visited Old Trafford and four times United have beaten them. 15 goals scored, 3 conceded, and April 2007 alone carried 7 of them in one night.
7-1 that April evening, Carrick twice, Rooney, Ronaldo two more. The last time Roma stood on this pitch they left a 2021 semi-final beaten 6-2.
Different era, same ground, and the season's numbers lean the same way.
📈 United: 4-0 in their only home game in this league phase
📉 Roma: 1-1 at Fenerbahce in their one European trip, no away win on the board
Roma have 4 points in this league phase with United a point behind on 3 and the home leg is where that flips.
Roma score 2.8 a game in Serie A from 2.28 expected, living above their chances. United create for a living, 19.3 shots a game and 1.60 expected goals, 6 league goals at Old Trafford already, 5 in 3 in Europe.
Away in the league Roma have not kept a clean sheet in any of their 5 trips and conceded 8. They arrive without Svilar in goal, without Dybala, Pellegrini and Kone. Four starters out of a spine that has carried everything this season.
Old Trafford has eaten Roma every time they've come and nothing in tonight's squad list says that changes.
🎯 Manchester United to win.

Former PGMOL chiedf Keith Hackett says that Jurrien Timber should have received a red card and conceded a penalty for pulling Alexander Isak's shirt 😳✅
“Looking at that replay again, if the penalty kick had been awarded then Timber should have been red carded for the denial of an obvious goal scoring opportunity.”
Declan Rice believes it is too early to dismiss Liverpool as title contenders 👀
"No, because look at Liverpool. They have secretly gone under the radar, their attack is incredible, the defence is really good."
Peter Schmeichel says he doesn't understand how VAR can't spot a penalty on the pitch that any fan 70 yards can see 😳✅:
"Why don't they see it? We see it in real time, like 70 yards away. Why can't they see it? I think Liverpool got cheated, especially on the Isak one."
Dominik Szoboszlai's introduction for Trey Nyoni saw Liverpool's possession drop from 74.0% to 50.9% and pass completion from 84.5% to 78.9%, with Szoboszlai being ineffective in a deep build-up role and making only 5 line-breaking passes compared to Nyoni's NINETEEN 😳

The Andoni Iraola high press in full flow 👏 Very harsh for the ref to call a foul there

Konate had his strengths physically, but Jacquet just brings a different level of calmness in possession.
Konate would treat the ball like a bomb in this situation if we're being totally honest.

Liverpool have conceded 25 shots on target this season & that is 2nd fewest in the league.
the block in front is doing a better job than last season
25 on target in 8 games is what a settled back line looks like
Goaldata - Liverpool Zone retweeted
Liverpool have missed 5 big chances all season & that is the fewest in the league.
Shots are rarely served on a plate so when a clear one does come, Liverpool take it

Arsenal have conceded five goals in eight league games, 0.63 a game, the fewest anyone. Five of the eight were clean sheets, and no side has allowed fewer shots on target (24), fewer big chances (11) or less expected goals (6.2) 📈
Liverpool sit fifth on 15, with 11 scored and eight conceded, and only four of those 11 goals have come at Anfield, from four home league games. Their home record in the league reads one win, four scored, five conceded 📉
Both are in the top eight for expected goals and Arsenal's is the better one, 1.74 a game, fourth in the league, against Liverpool's 1.52, eighth of twenty. Arsenal get there with 13.4 shots a game, 12th, so nothing here is volume.
In the league these two have almost stopped separating. Three of the last six meetings finished level, Arsenal have lost one of their last eight against Liverpool, and the last three read 0-0, 1-0 and 2-2. The last two at Anfield were settled by a single goal, or not settled at all.
Arsenal arrive off 2-0 at home to Everton and 1-0 away at Forest, and their one league defeat all season was 0-3 at Brighton on 19 September.
Liverpool are without Frimpong, Bradley, Ekitike and Leoni, and Szoboszlai is a doubt after three games out with a hamstring problem. Their threat runs through one man: Isak has six goals in eight league games, scoring in six straight, two-thirds of their goals in that run.
On the record, this is Arsenal's game.
🎯 Arsenal to win.
