FC Bayern Munich aims to reach and win the UEFA Champions League final this season after being eliminated in the quarterfinals by Inter Milan two years ago and the semifinals by Paris Saint-Germain last season. The 2026/27 final is set for Atlético Madrid’s Estadio Metropolitano. Bayern captain Manuel Neuer expressed the team's objective to finish in the top eight again, highlighting the draw against Atlético Madrid, Arsenal, and Manchester United as classic matchups. Neuer specifically hopes Bayern will play twice at the Estadio Metropolitano this season, implying reaching the final. The team also faces Bodø/Glimt, Lille, Slavia Prague, Real Betis, and Viking. Bayern seeks to improve on last season's semi-final exit and bring the trophy back to Munich after seven years.
