(Reuters) - Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane was absent in training but head coach Vincent Kompany played down fears of a serious injury and was hopeful he would be available for Tuesday's Champions League playoff second leg clash against Celtic at the Allianz Arena.

The six-times European champions put themselves in the driving seat by securing a 2-1 victory over Celtic in the first leg in Glasgow last Wednesday.
