Bayern Munich played to a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid in their last Group A match in the UEFA Champions League, and they will be eyeing a strong finish when they welcome Lokomotiv Moscow. Going to the Match Day 6 clash, Bayern top the group on 13 points while the visitors are bottom on three points. The past few matches have come with a real test for Bayern; ahead of this game, they had to twice come from behind to draw 3-3 with Leipzig in the Bundesliga. Earlier, they labored to draw 1-1 with Atletico Madrid, and they have three draws in the last five matches, while none of their last nine matches has produced a clean sheet. Bayern have scored in each of their 18 matches this season and lost in just one of those while in 11 of the last 15, the team has scored three or more goals. Their matches have been high scoring, with 13 of the last 15 having produced over 2.5 goals. Thomas Muller and Kingsley Coman have been very key in attack for the Bavarians, scoring a combined six goals in the last five matches. Bayern Munich have six straight wins in the Champions League, in matches played at home, but only one of the last four has produced a clean sheet. The Bavarians have 15 wins in 16 Champions League matches.

Lokomotiv, on the other hand, head to this game from a 3-1 win over Rubin Kazan in the Russian league. The win ended a run of three winless matches and heading here they will be hoping for three points as they push for at least a Europa League slot. Anton Miranchuk, who has scored three goals in the last five matches will be relied upon heavily and having come from down to beat Rubin Kazan, the team will be in high spirits. They have three clean sheets in the last five matches and failed to score in two matches while they are winless in their last five away matches, three of them having ended in draws. It is worse in the Champions League, where they are winless in the last 10 matches, having lost seven and kept just one clean sheet. The Russians have conceded two or more goals in eight of their last 10 Champions League matches but scored in six. Away from home, they have one win in 18 Champions League matches.
