Top match against Hoffenheim! Kompany is counting on this Bayern starting eleven | OneFootball

In just under an hour, the ball will be rolling in Munich’s Allianz Arena as FC Bayern Munich face TSG Hoffenheim on matchday 21. We bring you the line-ups for the Bundesliga top match.

After two games without a win in a row, FC Bayern are under pressure in the Bundesliga for the first time this season. Borussia Dortmund have reduced the gap to three points. Another slip-up against TSG Hoffenheim would reignite the title fight.

On a positive note for Bayern, Vincent Kompany will be able to draw on a full squad for the top match against Hoffenheim.

Manuel Neuer, who was only able to train to a limited extent this week due to illness, was fit in time and will be in goal for the record champions. In defence, Kompany will rely on a back four of Josip Stanišić, Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah and Alphonso Davies.

Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlović start in defensive midfield. The two form the double-six and should provide control and stability. The attacking trio of Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry and Luis Díaz start in front of them. Harry Kane is set in the center of attack. The Englishman has also had to take a short break in recent days due to a cold, but is ready for action and starts from the beginning.
