Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen – Predicted lineup and team news

Bayern Munich Team News

Despite missing their creative midfielder Jamal Musiala, Bayern still appear strong. Musiala, 22, has made notable progress in his recovery from a fractured fibula that he suffered at the Club World Cup in the summer, recently returning to light training on the pitch. Nevertheless, his comeback will not come in time for this weekend’s clash, and his exact return date remains unconfirmed.

Serge Gnabry has now been included in the squad and will be keen to regain his top form, whereas Hiroki Ito and Alphonso Davies are both ruled out due to injury.

Chelsea’s loan forward Nicolas Jackson continues to compete for a place up front alongside Harry Kane. Manager Vincent Kompany has thrown his support behind Jackson, remarking that he rates the striker differently than public opinion and that Jackson has been impactful—despite his two goals coming exclusively in the Champions League so far, rather than the Bundesliga.

Vincent Kompany’s men have displayed outstanding form, notching up eight straight Bundesliga wins and netting a remarkable 30 goals—a new record for the league after eight games.

Predicted Lineup

Possible Bayern Munich starting XI: Urbig; Laimer, Upamecano, Kim Min-jae, Guerreiro; Kimmich, Goretzka; Olise, Gnabry, Díaz; Kane.

The match will kick off at 5:30pm BST on Saturday, 31st October.
