Real Madrid vs Bayern München: UEFA Champions League Quarter-Finals

Real Madrid host Bayern München in Madrid on 7 April 2026 in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. Real Madrid arrive with 15 points and a goal difference of 9 from 8 matches, while Bayern München have 21 points and a goal difference of 14 from 8 games.

Real Madrid Availability

Real Madrid face several absences. Dani Ceballos (Calf Injury) is sidelined. T. Courtois (Thigh Injury) is sidelined, removing an elite goalkeeping option. F. Mendy (Hamstring Injury) is sidelined, weakening depth at left-back. Rodrygo (Knee Injury) is sidelined, a notable loss in forward rotation. None of Real Madrid’s listed absentees appear among the top scorers or top assists for this competition, so their primary attacking output remains intact through Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior.

Bayern München Availability

Bayern München also have a lengthy list. C. Kiala (Ankle Injury) is sidelined. W. Mike (Hip Injury) is sidelined. B. Ndiaye (Inactive) is sidelined. S. Ulreich (Muscle Injury) is sidelined, reducing goalkeeping cover. Crucially, H. Kane (Injury) is doubtful; with 10 goals in this UEFA Champions League campaign, his potential absence would be a major blow to Bayern’s attack.

Impact Summary

Real Madrid retain their main attacking stars, with Mbappé leading the scoring charts. Bayern’s attacking output is far more at risk, as a doubtful Kane threatens to strip them of a double‑figure goals contributor on a key knockout night.
