Team News

Bayern
RBL
  • Niklas Süle, Jérôme Boateng and Mats Hummels compete for two spots at centre-back.
  • Rafinha provides and option at right-back, if manager Niko Kovac decides to field Joshua Kimmich in central midfield.
  • Franck Ribéry challenges Kingsley Coman for the spot on the left wing.
  • Manager Ralf Rangnick could field a back-three against Bayern to have an additional defender at the back.
  • Marcelo Saracchi challenges Marcel Halstenberg fot the spot on the left wing.
  • Bruma could get a chance in attacking midfield, if Kevin Kampl does not recover from a minor injury in time.

Prediction

  • Bayern Munich have regained confidence with three league wins in a row and need to beat RB Leipzig or risk Borussia Dortmund extending their current nine-point lead. They have only won one of their last five home league games.
  • RB Leipzig have lost back-to-back Bundesliga matches on the road, but their reactive approach might be better suited to a trip to Bayern. After a 4-1 win against Mainz last time out, manager Ralf Rangnick hopes for another confident performance on the break.
  • Expect this to be a competitive game with several chances at both ends of the pitch.
