"We’ll fight for it": HSV star Vieira fires warning to Bayern | OneFootball

This coming Saturday evening, FC Bayern will host Hamburger SV in the Bundesliga's top match. Ahead of the game, HSV newcomer Fabio Vieira spoke up - and sent a clear message to the German record champion.

For the Munich team, the next top match is scheduled for Saturday at 6:30 pm at the Allianz Arena. After the furious 6:0 victory against RB Leipzig and the narrow 3:2 away win at FC Augsburg, Vincent Kompany's team wants to defend the league lead and secure the third win in the third season game.

Fabio Vieira, who surprisingly moved from FC Arsenal to the Elbe just before the end of the transfer period, spoke in an interview with BILD about the upcoming duel. The Portuguese showed great respect for the record champion, but at the same time announced a courageous performance:

"Bayern is one of the best teams in the world. Everyone knows how strong Bayern is. It will be a very difficult game for us. I'm looking forward to it. We will prepare well for it. Let's see what happens," Vieira explained.

The offensive midfielder added: "We will fight and want to take something away from there." With this, the 24-year-old sends a clear message to Bayern - he is not afraid of the big stage in Munich.

Dress rehearsal for CL duel against Chelsea

While the Hamburgers arrive with confidence, Vincent Kompany clearly focuses on a successful league start. The Belgian can presumably also rely on newcomer Nicolas Jackson. However, whether the striker will already move into the starting line-up is considered unlikely. Much rotation is not expected on the third matchday anyway.

For Bayern, the game against HSV also has a special significance, as the start of the Champions League season is just a few days away. On Tuesday, the Munich team will host the reigning club world champion FC Chelsea - and thus Jackson's former club. After the mixed previous season in the Champions League, Bayern want to set a clear signal this year.
