"The result against Arsenal [1-1 draw] shows it'll be a tough game. They were difficult to break down. Maybe they even deserved to get more from the game. That's perfect for me, as the players know it won't be easy. We'll have to be aggressive if we're going to get a result."
"Leverkusen have a lot of talent, they have a little less experience than in previous years. It'll be a good game for the fans and, hopefully, for Bayern too."
Bayern Munich leads the Bundesliga by 11 points with nine games remaining and has won five consecutive league matches, scoring at least three goals in each. They defeated Atalanta 6-1 in the Champions League last 16 first leg. Manager Vincent Kompany warns that Bayer Leverkusen, despite inconsistency this season, will be challenging opponents. Leverkusen's recent 1-1 draw with Arsenal demonstrates their defensive resilience. Kompany confirms Harry Kane may return from injury. Leverkusen sits sixth in the Bundesliga, three points from fourth place, and has lost only one of their last eight league matches.
