Kim Min-Jae committed two fouls and was shown a yellow card in the first leg meeting between the sides at the Allianz Arena. He’ll be up against it here again with Inter tending to play with two strikers in a 3-5-2 shape, who constantly occupy and present a threat to the opposition backline. 

Kim Min-Jae has committed eight fouls across his 12 appearances in the Champions League this season (0.71 per 90), but Inter have already shown they can force a rise in this average through Lautaro Martinez (1.42 fouls won per 90) and Marcus Thuram (2.36 fouls won per 90). The pair won a notable seven fouls between them in the first leg, which gives us some idea of how Inter are going to look to play here, making the most of counter attacking situations which should aid our selection here. Kim Min-Jae will have to keep a watchful eye on the pair who have already shown how effective they can be. 

Bayern committed nine fouls in the first leg, a huge 77% of these challenges were on Martinez and Thuram who will be up against Kim Min-Jae again here. In instances where Inter are looking for relief from Bayern pressure, expect their front two to draw fouls from the Bayern backline. 

Timber was superb in the first leg, Vinicius Jr could not find a way past the fullback who contested 15 duels at the Emirates, winning eight of these - more than any other player on the pitch. Timber will be heavily involved here again with Vinicius Jr sniffing around his corner of the pitch and Madrid needing to attack from the very start here to hold any chance of progressing.

Timber has won seven fouls across his 10 appearances in the Champions League this season (1.06 per 90). His tendency to win fouls comes from his excellent ability in tight areas of the pitch and his strength, which makes it very hard to knock him off the ball. These traits are also evident in the Premier League with Timber winning 29 fouls across his 29 appearances (1.12 per 90). 

Vinicius Jr has committed 16 fouls across his 11 appearances in the Champions League this season (1.42 per 90). He can be quite careless with his challenges as you’d expect from a winger and Timber’s strong fouls won record sets him up well to force the referee to reach for his whistle here.
