Team News

Bayern
Eintracht Frankfurt
  • Head Coach Vincent Kompany will have to see how side rock up after their Champions League scare against Celtic.
  • Harry Kane went off at half time in midweek with a calf problem and remains a doubt. Serge Gnabry is most likely to step in up front if the England captain is ruled out, but Musiala and Olise would be other options in an exotic front duo.
  • Leon Goretzka, Joao Paulinha and Aleksandar Pavlovic are all candidates for a spot in midfield, and Kingsley Coman is competing with Leroy Sané on the flank. Goalkeeper Daniel Peretz sustained a bruised kidney and is ruled out.
  • Mario Götze is a key man for this meeting with his former employer. Oscar Höjlund is struggling with a foot injury, while Ellyes Skhiri has swollen ribs, both are doubts.
  • The question is whether Eagles Head Coach Dino Toppmöller will play one or two up front. If he decides on just one, Can Uzun (and Götze) are both able to play in behind Ekitike, but new signing Wahi could also come in if a two-pronged attack is preferred.
  • Ex-Leeds defender Robin Koch is struggling with a shoulder injury, while Igor Matanovic has a foot injury.

Prediction

  • Never since the introduction of 3-points-for-a-win in 1995/96 have the leaders blown an eight-point advantage at this stage of the season.
  • Bayern, the highest scorers, have scored five goals in a Bundesliga game five times this season, but failed to score for the first time in 29 league games at Leverkusen last week.
  • Frankfurt have scored in their last 21 Bundesliga games, last failing to find the net in a 0-2 defeat in Dortmund on the opening day of the season.
  • The record German champions must recover from Champions League action in midweek, while the visitors have all week to prepare.
  • Eintracht sit in the lofty heights of third, moving on nicely following the departure of their star striker, Omar Marmoush to Manchester City.
  • The reverse fixture was a classic 3-3 draw, but bouyed by Champions League progress, back Bayern to get the job done on home soil with BTTS.
