Sebastian Kehl will sit for Borussia Dortmund, with Kevin Großkreutz preferred. There are no surprises in the Bayern Munich lineup.
Bayern Munich's lineup is as expected for the Champions League final, while Borussia Dortmund included one minor surprise. In the absence of Mario Götze, many thought that Jürgen Klopp would opt to play Sebastian Kehl and three central midfielders, instead of two. He's opted to stick with his regular formation, introducing Kevin Großkreutz instead of Kehl.
