Veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer says Bayern Munich know how to “hurt” Paris Saint-Germain as the Bavarians brace for their away clash with the Champions League title-holders on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PSG won the Champions League last year at Bayern’s Allianz Arena home<\/strong>, thumping Inter Milan 5-0, but the Bavarian giants travel to the Parc des Princes in incredible form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bayern have won all 15 of their matches in all competitions so far this campaign<\/strong>, setting a record for the best-ever start in Europe’s top-five leagues<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 39-year-old captain said his side “don’t have any fear” of the French champions, adding: “We love to play against PSG and we’re playing to win<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neuer, a two-time Champions League winner with Bayern, said the visitors have a clear plan to rattle PSG<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are both teams that like to have the ball, that’s well-known, and perhaps we don’t like to defend much<\/strong>,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There will certainly be opportunities to counter-attack<\/strong>. You have to be wide awake for that, and also try to have a good defensive structure against these strong and fast opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“That’s exactly how we want to hurt the Parisians.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Front-and-centre in Bayern’s historic season has been the superb form of England captain Harry Kane<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kane has 22 goals in Bayern’s 15-game winning streak<\/strong> but has also been playing a greater creative role in the side<\/strong>, dropping deep to help out in build-up play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bayern coach Vincent Kompany told reporters Kane’s “understanding of the role has evolved” this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s a bit of a mix of creating the conditions for him <\/strong>to do what he does really well, but ensuring he is where he needs to be to score goals<\/strong>,” the Belgian said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Harry has a lot of experience and a good feeling for the game… Harry doesn’t have a very different role to last year, but he’s evolved in how he sees the role.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
