Bayern Munich lef-back Raphael Guerreiro will miss Wednesday's Champions League semi-final second leg against Real Madrid at the Spanish capital due to an ankle ligament injury, the Bundesliga club said on Sunday.

Portugal international Guerreiro was taken off in the 17th minute of Bayern's 3-1 Bundesliga loss to VfB Stuttgart on Saturday after hurting his ankle in an attempt to block a shot. "Bayern will be without Raphael Guerreiro for the next few games," Bayern said in a statement.

Bayern Munich, who also had Eric Dier taken off at halftime against Stuttgart with a head injury, have several injury concerns with defenders Matthijs De Ligt and Dayot Upamecano still working back to full fitness. The German side drew 2-2 in their home game against record 14-times European champions Real Madrid.
