Bayern can expect a red-hot welcome at Roma

Roma coach Rudi Garcia has promised Bayern Munich a red-hot welcome when the Bundesliga giant arrives in the Italian capital looking to spoil the Giallorossi's great start to the Champions League.

Roma warmed up for Tuesday's Group E clash with a resounding 3-0 defeat of Chievo on Saturday and although Pep Guardiola's side routed Werder Bremen 6-0, Garcia wants a packed-out Stadio Olimpico to give the host something extra.

"Bayern are ready and they will be on a high but we're counting on a red-hot atmosphere at the Olimpico. We can't wait, it will be a fantastic game," Garcia said after Saturday's win, which left Roma just a point adrift of Serie A leader Juventus.
