Overview
- Munich objected at the UEFA meeting to a Paris police decree that sends fan buses to a toll‑station muster point and instructs other Bayern supporters to reach the Parc des Princes only by public transport.
- FC Bayern called the short notice unacceptable, warned return buses may not depart Paris until around 5 a.m. due to driver hours, and said it is examining further legal steps; PSG is backing Bayern’s complaint.
- Both clubs have nine points from three games, with kickoff at 21:00 CET on Prime Video in Germany, and Vincent Kompany framed the fixture as a prestige test that could all but secure a top‑eight berth.
- Kompany praised Luis Enrique’s “revolutionary” shift toward a collective PSG in which contributors like Bradley Barcola, Warren Zaire‑Emery and Senny Mayulu have become decisive beyond the headline stars.
- In Germany, Schalke coach Miron Muslic lamented set‑piece concessions after the 1:2 loss in Karlsruhe, right‑back Adrian Gantenbein is suspended for Elversberg and Finn Porath is a doubt, while the agent of standout Soufiane El‑Faouzi noted interest from other clubs but stressed the midfielder’s comfort at Schalke on a deal through 2029 with no release clause.
