Named to bench
Guerreiro (hamstring) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against PSG.
Analysis: Guerreiro was likely to return Wednesday and is back in the team sheet, as the defender lines up on the bench. This will give the club another viable option all over the field, as he is a versatile option. However, he is likely to be used anytime early in the match, potentially coming on late as a further attacking option from the defense.
Option for Wednesday
Guerreiro (hamstring) is an option for Wednesday's match against PSG, according to manager Vincent Kompany. "The first good news is that everyone except Serge is fit and available."
Analysis: Guerreiro is returning to action after two games out, as the defender is cleared for the second leg of the UCL semifinals after he was absent for the first. This will give the club some more depth in all aspects of the game, as the versatile player can defend or join the attack on the flanks. However, he will more than likely only serve as a backup option either way, possibly coming on later in the match, but not ready to start in a match that will be played with insane intensity.
Picks up hamstring injury
Guerreiro is set for a spell on the sideline with a hamstring injury, Munich announced.
Analysis: Guerreiro is going to miss some time with a hamstring injury he picked up against Mainz. There's no exact timeline for his recovery, and with a hamstring issue it could be weeks or months depending on the severity. With only a month left in the season, there's some doubt if he will return this season.
Tallies goal
Guerreiro scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 4-2 victory versus VfB Stuttgart.
Analysis: Guerreiro netted his second goal in two matches to help get the victory Sunday that secured the league title. He played a key part despite being in a rotational role, recording seven starts in 16 league appearances, scoring five times with two assists, creating 18 chances in the process.
