Probable line-up: How Bayern could set up away at Augsburg | OneFootball

On Saturday evening (6:30 PM), FC Bayern will be guests at FC Augsburg in the WWK-Arena. After the clear opening victory against Leipzig, the team coached by Vincent Kompany wants to dominate in their first away game of the season. Here is the probable line-up.

In goal, Manuel Neuer is the obvious choice. In front of him, the back four is likely to consist of Josip Stanisic on the left, Dayot Upamecano and Jonathan Tah in the center, and Konrad Laimer on the right.

In midfield, Kompany is likely to trust the double pivot of Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka once again. Aleksander Pavlovic started instead of Goretzka in the cup game in Wiesbaden. He could also be an option in Augsburg, but Goretzka probably has a slight edge.

Offensively, Serge Gnabry is expected to remain the central figure behind the striker, as he was against Leipzig. On the wings, new signing Luis Diaz is planned on the left and Michael Olise on the right. Harry Kane leads the attack in the center forward position.

The probable Bayern starting line-up at a glance: Neuer – Stanisic, Upamecano, Tah, Laimer – Kimmich, Goretzka – Olise, Gnabry, Diaz – Kane

Before the game in Augsburg, Kompany said: "One should not underestimate how hungry we are, how much we are looking forward to this game. We not only want to be judged for our qualities, but also for the basics - hard work, willingness to fight and the hunger for victories."

Augsburg celebrated victory in Freiburg

The Augsburg team also wants to be courageous in front of their home crowd. On the first match day, the team surprisingly won 3:1 at SC Freiburg. Coach Sandro Wagner, a former player for FC Bayern, also wants to rely on a bold style of play against the German record champions.

The probable Augsburg starting line-up at a glance: Dahmen – Matsima, Gouweleeuw, K. Schlotterbeck – M. Wolf, Jakic, Massengo, Giannoulis – Kömür, Fellhauer – P. Tietz
