Bayern Real Madrid Champions League schedule TV match today

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid face off in Champions League semi-finals. European football classic with favorites Real Madrid, match on Tuesday.

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are set to clash in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals this Tuesday. This highly anticipated match brings together two of the most successful teams in the history of the competition. Real Madrid, the kings of Europe with fourteen titles, will face off against Bayern Munich, the third most successful team with six.

Real Madrid comes into the match as the favorites, having defeated the reigning Champions League champions and one of the top contenders for the title, Manchester City, in the previous round. With the league title already secured and key players rested in the last league game, all eyes are on the Real Madrid lineup. The absence of Dani Carvajal due to suspension will see Lucas Vázquez stepping in on the right flank, with just one spot in the starting eleven left to be decided between Nacho, Tchouaméni, and Camavinga.

In contrast to Real Madrid's consistent presence in the latter stages of the Champions League, Bayern Munich is solely focused on European success after losing their grip on the Bundesliga title after eleven consecutive triumphs. Despite surrendering their domestic crown to Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern enters the semi-finals on the back of a series of victories, including a crucial win against Arsenal that secured their spot in the last four after three seasons of quarter-final exits.

For English midfielder Xabi Alonso, this match holds special significance as he faces a club that marred the beginning of his career at Borussia Dortmund. Having narrowly missed out on the Bundesliga title to Bayern Munich in a dramatic final day showdown, Alonso will be looking to avenge past defeats and make his mark in this pivotal Champions League clash.

The first leg of the Champions League semi-finals between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, April 30th, at the Allianz Arena at 9:00 p.m. Fans can catch all the action live on Movistar or follow the match online via the La Vanguardia website.
