Bayern Munich vs Lille Live Stream: Watch Free Online Champions League Group F Game at 2.45 PM ET, 7.45 PM GMT

Bayern Munich will look to take control of Group F, when the German side host Lille in the Champions League at the Allianz Arena.

Three teams -Bayern, BATE Borisov and Valencia -- are locked on six points from three games, meaning any of the trio could make it to the next round, with Lille, who are yet to open their account, needing an improbable win against the Germans to stay alive.

Bayern manager Jupp Heynckes is confident going into the Champions League tie. "Last year everybody told us we had the strongest group in the Champions League," he said. "This year the reaction to the draw was different.

"But in this competition you never meet weak opponents and it will be the same tomorrow. My team are in good shape, but we have to forget about all the praise we received recently. We have to stay focused, serious and responsible.

"When I analysed our game on Saturday (3-0 win over Hamburg), I told the team I am very satisfied with our style of play. We play a brand of football that used to be played on the street. Franck (Ribery) is the best example, going forward when he can and helping out in defence. He is the symbol of our style -- physically strong, technically excellent.

"We are playing great football, but it is only November; the season has a long way to go. After last season, losing two finals, we are giving a bit more this term. We must not be satisfied yet, though. The atmosphere around the squad may even be too good, too euphoric. We have not won anything yet.

Bayern only beat Lille 1-0 in the previous fixture in France, and Heynckes expects another tough fifth from their opponents. "You can interpret the first game against Lille how you like," he added. "I would rather win 1-0 than risk bringing on another forward and risk being held to a draw. The game was very tense, and Lille showed great energy and were very well organised at the back. I expect a similar game here."

Striker Mario Mandzukic is a doubt through illness, while Emre Can misses out due to an ankle injury. Mario Gomez, who has not played all season, has returned to training, but will not be involved on Wednesday.
