Sane missed Friday's 2-2 draw with Freiburg due to a patellar tendon problem, but is expected to be available for Tuesday's game after returning to full training on Sunday.
"He's not been able to play without pain for a while. He can hopefully train fully today. He trained fully yesterday," said Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel at a press conference on Monday.
"He has a pain threshold he can tolerate. As things stand, he'll be in the squad and can play."
Meanwhile, Alphonso Davies could make his first start since returning from an internal ligament strain.
"Alphonso is definitely an option. He could probably play 90 minutes," said Tuchel.
