📰 Team News: Bayern Munich

Min-jae Kim (Achilles tendon problems), Jamal Musiala (Torn muscle bundle), Tarek Buchmann (Fitness), Hiroki Ito (Metatarsal fracture), Dayot Upamecano (Cartilage damage) and Alphonso Davies (Cruciate ligament tear) are unavailable for Bayern Munich gaffer Vincent Kompany.

We think that Bayern could kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system and select Manuel Neuer, Sacha Boey, Eric Dier, Josip Stanisic, Konrad Laimer, Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Michael Olise, Thomas Mueller, Leroy Sane and Harry Kane.

🗞️ Team News: Gladbach

Gladbach boss Gerardo Seoane has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Nathan Ngoumou (Achilles tendon rupture), Yvandro Borges Sanches (Muscle injury), Marvin Friedrich (muscular problems), Alassane Pléa (Blockage in the back) and Moritz Nicolas (Adductor injury) are not ready for selection.

We are inclined to think that Gladbach could decide to utilise a 4-2-3-1 formation by sending out Jonas Omlin, Joseph Scally, Ko Itakura, Nico Elvedi, Lukas Ullrich, Rocco Reitz, Julian Weigl, Franck Honorat, Kevin Stoeger, Robin Hack and Tim Kleindienst.

💭 Prediction

We believe that Bayern Munich should dominate possession and create several successful chances.

In contrast, Borussia Mönchengladbach might well find it a difficult task to break down their defence but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be hitting back at some stage.

Accordingly, we see a fairly comfortable 3-1 win for Bayern Munich after 90 minutes.
