Bayern Munich visits PSV Eindhoven at the Philips Stadion in Eindhoven on Tuesday, November 1. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Bayern took a decisive advantage in the battle for qualification to the play-off stage with a 4-1 win in Munich the last time these two teams met. Carlo Ancelotti will be without the services of Javi Martinez and Franck Ribery, both out with injuries.
Bayern will look to keep up pace with Atletico who are three points ahead in the group lead and host FC Rostov. A slip-up in Eindhoven will jeopardize the Bavarians’ chances to win the group and thus be seeded for the play-off round.
On the other side, PSV continues to be hit hard by injuries. Jurgen Locadia, Jorrit Hendrix, Luciano Narsingh and Siem de Jong are all expected to miss out, while Steven Bergwijn is struggling with an injury picked up at the weekend. Another loss will mathematically eliminate Philip Cocu’s team from qualifying to the next Champions League round and will endanger their chances at the third spot in the group, the Europa League play-off qualification.
This Champions League match between Bayern Munich and PSV Eindhoven will be broadcast live on the regional Fox Sports Network channel.

All the injuries issues will prove to be too much to overcome for the Dutch side. Given their good recent form and superior talent, I expect Bayern to come away with the win and keep pace with Atletico Madrid, ahead of their direct matchup.
