Bayern gets home 'advantage' for Champions League final

BAYERN Munich has been given the go-ahead by European soccer's governing body UEFA to use its home changing room at the Allianz Arena for Saturday's Champions League final against Chelsea.

Bayern, aiming to become the first team of the host city to win a Champions League final on home soil, is officially playing a neutral match. A club official, however, said Bayern would be using its usual changing room instead of the other two neutral ones available.

Bayern has been allocated the same amount of tickets (17,500) as its opponents and is named as home team for marketing and logistical purposes.
