Benfica team news

Benfica approach this match with a largely fit squad but will be without left-back Álvaro Carreras, who is suspended after picking up his second yellow card of the tournament in their previous match.

The squad otherwise remains strong, featuring experienced names like Ángel Di María—who has already scored three goals in the tournament—and young talents such as António Silva. There are no major injury concerns reported for Benfica ahead of this fixture.

Bayern Munich team news

Bayern Munich have enjoyed a strong start to their Club World Cup campaign, but manager Vincent Kompany will be mindful of player fitness as his side have already secured a place in the next round.

Jamal Musiala, who had been a minor doubt after coming off with a calf concern against Boca Juniors, has returned to training and is expected to be available, though Kompany may exercise caution given Musiala's recent recovery from a hamstring injury.

Bayern’s squad is bolstered by new signings Jonathan Tah and Tom Bischof, and there are no fresh suspensions or significant injuries reported, giving Kompany a full array of options for this group decider.
