Team News

Bayern
Bochum
  • Manuel Neuer's comeback is on hold after breaking his leg in a skiing accident in January, while summer signing Raphaël Guerreiro is nearing a return from a calf injury.
  • Moritz-Broni Kwarteng is battling problems with his adductors, while back-up keeper Michael Esser has knee pain, but barring late injuries head coach Thomas Letsch has a full strength squad at his disposal.

Prediction

  • Bayern have a quick turnaround from their midweek win over Manchester United, while Bochum have all week to prepare for the trip to the Bavarian capital.
  • Bochum have drawn two out of four, including a surprise share of the spoils against Dortmund and another side playing in Europe, Eintracht Frankfurt, last week.
  • Record champions Bayern have scored in 31 Bundesliga games in a row, last failing to find the net in September last year.
  • Bayern did the double over Bochum last season scoring 10 goals without conceding, so anything other than a comfortable home win would be a HUGE surprise.
