Your support makes all the difference.Sadio Mane is set to make his first Champions League appearance for Bayern Munich tonight as the German champions take on Romelu Lukaku’s Inter Milan in the group of death.
Mane has big boots to fill after Robert Lewandowski left for Barcelona but after scoring important goals in Liverpool’s run to last season’s final, the forward will look to hit the ground running in the San Siro.
Lukaku has returned to Italy after an unsuccessful spell at Chelsea, and is reunited with Lautaro Martinez in the strike force that fired Inter to the Serie A title two seasons ago.
WIth Barcelona also in Group C, a fast start is required in the tournament’s group of death for both teams who will want to improve upon their European campaign last season. Bayern were knocked out by Villarreal in the quarter-finals while Inter were defeated by Liverpool in the last 16.
