Probable line-up: How Bayern could set up in Wiesbaden | OneFootball

Who will Vincent Kompany rely on Wednesday evening in Wiesbaden? FCBinside takes a look at the possible lineup of the German record champions in the first round of the cup.

Due to the Supercup, Bayern's first cup match was moved to Wednesday evening (8:45 pm). There, the Munich team will visit third-division side Wehen Wiesbaden. Logically, the record champions go into the match as absolute favorites. The goal: to leave behind the unsuccessful cup years of the past and finally reach the final in Berlin again.

It will be interesting to see whom Vincent Kompany chooses for the starting eleven. In the last two competitive matches, the Bayern coach relied on the same lineup. At the press conference on Tuesday, the Belgian also emphasized how great the "hunger" is to be more successful in the DFB-Pokal again. It is therefore quite possible that the 39-year-old will make few changes once more, although Goretzka was recently struggling with an injury and Pavlovic is back. In addition, one change is unavoidable.

The possible Bayern lineup against Wiesbaden: Urbig – Stanisic, Upamecano, Tah, Laimer – Kimmich, Pavlovic – Díaz, Gnabry, Olise – Kane

Olise, according to Kompany, "comparable to De Bruyne"

Kompany had some interesting words at the press conference regarding his key player Michael Olise. "Michael's numbers are not my priority. But I do expect him to get even better and take steps forward. As a player, I have seen the development of such talents, and that is perhaps comparable to Kevin De Bruyne," explained the FCB coach.

Afterwards, the Munich coach was also asked about possible rotations. "It's not about resting players. We have started very well. If Leon Goretzka gets through the final training session, he will be involved as normal. Everyone from the weekend is available. I don't like the word rotation."

His clear statement: "We want to go to Berlin, we want to reach the final. I have the utmost respect for the opponent. I will field a team that can win this game. We won't do anything crazy."
