Bayern Munich head coach Pep Guardiola warned his side not to take Roma easily when the German champions take on the Italian team in a Champions league tie late Wednesday night.

Bayern have a six-goal advantage after thrashing Roma 7-1 two weeks ago but Guardiola asked his players not to be complacent.

"We start tomorrow from 0-0. We experienced victory but will not see the same situation. It's a new game. I told my lads that Roma have pace and a lot of quality, while their centre-backs are very strong too. If (Miralem) Pjanic is playing then that's one thing, if it's (Alessandro) Florenzi then the whole situation changes," he said.

 

"But we'll only know once the line-ups are announced. So, we have to be prepared for every eventuality. Roma will play to win in Munich, we'll play our game too. We will focus on our own style, even though we will also analyse Roma's strong and weak points," Guardiola added.
