Valencia vs. Bayern Munich: Lineups

So, Valencia vs. Bayern Munich at the Mestalla. If this had been the opening match of the group stages, it would have been a must-watch game. Since it comes with both teams three points clear of third-place BATE Borisov, meaning that a draw puts both through... maybe this one isn't so compelling. If one of these sides really, really wants to top the group, they might go for it, but there's not a whole lot of incentive to things up and risk losing from Bayern's perspective.

Valencia (4-4-1-1): Vicente Guaita; Aly Cissokho, Adil Rami, Ricardo Costa, Antonio Barragan; Andres Guardado, Tino Costa, Daniel Parejo, Sofiane Feghouli; Ever Banega; Roberto Soldado.

Substitutes from: Diego Alves, Victor Ruiz, David Albelda, Jonathan Viera, Juan Bernat, Jonas, Nelson Haedo Valdez

Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1): Manuel Neuer; David Alaba, Holger Badstuber, Dante, Philipp Lahm; Bastian Schweinsteiger, Javi Martinez; Franck Ribery, Toni Kroos, Arjen Robben; Claudio Pizzaro.

Substitutes from: Tom Starke, Daniel van Buyten, Rafinha, Xherdan Shaqiri, Anatoliy Tymoschuk, Mario Mandzuki, Mario Gomez
