In addition to the long-term injured Alphonso Davies (rehab after cruciate ligament tear), Hiroki Ito (rehab after metatarsal fracture), and Jamal Musiala (fibula fracture), Vincent Kompany must also do without Raphael Guerreiro against Berlin. The Portuguese is struggling with muscular problems.

Rotation? Kompany makes only one change

Just 72 hours after the exhausting Champions League duel against PSG, many expected Vincent Kompany to rotate his starting eleven significantly. It is all the more surprising that the 39-year-old has only changed the starting eleven in one position compared to the 2-1 victory against Paris on Tuesday. With this, Kompany simultaneously sends a signal of how important the duel against Union and the breathtaking winning streak with 16 victories is to him.

In front of Manuel Neuer in goal, a back four with Konrad Laimer, Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, and Josip Stanisic is deployed.

In the defensive midfield, Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich start. In front of them, Kompany relies on an offensive trio with Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, and Luis Diaz. Harry Kane is set in the center forward position.

Substitutes are: Urbig, Klanac – Minjae, Jackson, Bischof, Boey, Karl, Pavlovic, Santos.
