Bayern Munich have a chance to pick themselves up off the floor when they travel to Italian club Lazio on February 14.
The Germans were stunned on Saturday, losing 3-0 at Bayer Leverkusen and falling five points behind the league leaders. However, in terms of the Champions League, Munich breezed through their group, winning five games and drawing just once. This included two wins over Manchester United.
On the other side, Lazio returned to winning ways on Sunday with a 3-1 win at Cagliari. The Biancocelesti were on a three-match winless streak prior to last weekend.

Bayern Munich vs Lazio lineups, team news
Munich coach Thomas Tuchel has many big decisions to make. After leaving out Joshua Kimmich, Thomas Muller, and Matthijs De Ligt from the starting lineup at Leverkusen, we could see all three players back in the Starting XI. Muller called out his teammates after the defeat in Leverkusen, and we'll see if his words as a club legend has any effect on the team's future performances.
In addition, after a solid — but not spectacular — start to time in Germany, could English centerback Eric Dier be left out after the defensive issues last weekend?
One thing is certain — Harry Kane will start up top, and he will need to rebound after his worst game for the Bavarian side.
Bayern Munich (3-4-3, right to left): Neuer (GK) — Upamecano, de Ligt, Kim — Mazraoui, Kimmich, Goretzka, Guerreiro — Sane, Kane, Musiala.
Bayern Munich subs (9): TBC
It's been a down year in Serie A for Maurizio Sarri's side, as Lazio currently sits in eighth place. However, they're still alive and well in the Champions League and this might be the best time to strike while Bayern are in a rut.
Ciro Immobile continues to rack up goals in Italy, while Munich will have its hands full defending the likes of Felipe Anderson and Luis Alberto. Former New York City FC star Valentin "Taty" Castellanos is a danger to score off the bench as well.
Lazio (4-2-3-1 right to left): Provedel (GK) — Marusic, Gila, Romagnoli, Hysaj — Cataldi, Guendouzi — Isaken, Kamada, Anderson — Immobile.

Bayern Munich vs Lazio prediction
