20:21 CET - That is surely game over now, with Jonathan Tah poking home to give Bayern a two-goal cushion against Sporting!

20:14 CET - Lennart Karl has done it again! The 17-year-old has become the youngest player in Champions League history to score in three straight games, putting Bayern 2-1 up against Sporting.

20:10 CET - After going a goal down, Serge Gnabry has made it 1-1 for Bayern, with Sporting falling asleep at a corner to let the German tap in.

18:48 CET - Bayern's clash with Sporting is now underway in Munich, follow that match here!

18:21 CET - Olympiacos have edged Kairat Almaty 1-0 over in Kazakhstan to notch their first win of the league phase to move up to 26th and just one point off the playoff spots.

The Greek side absolutely battered their hosts statistically, taking 20 shots and notching an xG of 2.37, but they almost didn’t get the job in Astana, where the game was being held.

Kairat, meanwhile, are almost surely out of playoff contention now; they have just one point to their name.

17:40 CET - There is one 18:45 CET kick-off today, and that is between German champions Bayern Munich and Portuguese champions Sporting, in Bavaria.

Both sides are currently in the top eight as it stands, meaning that there will be quality on show, and they will want to consolidate those placings. 

Bayern haven't lost a match at home since April, however, so Sporting will have their work cut out for them. Check out the starting lineups below!

17:22 CET - At half-time in today's very early game over in Kazakhstan, it is still goalless between Kairat Almaty and Olympiacos

Both sides really need a win today. In fact, neither has won a league phase match so far this season, with Kairat managing just one draw and Olympiacos just two points. Plenty on the line in the second half, then.
