Bayern Munich, leading the league with 43 points from 20 games (13 wins, 4 draws, 3 losses), aim to extend their unbeaten run to five after a 2-1 victory over Hamburger SV, showcasing attacking flair under Vincent Kompany but facing doubts over Harry Kane’s fitness due to illness.
Bayern Munich Team News
Bayern Munich’s title charge—unbeaten in five league games—relies on depth, but injuries and doubts linger
- Full squad availability: Coach Vincent Kompany expects key players, including Manuel Neuer and Harry Kane, to be available despite recent illness concerns.
- Injuries / absentees: Raphaël Guerreiro is still out with a calf strain, so defensive rotation is likelier than usual.
TSG Hoffenheim Team News
TSG Hoffenheim’s impressive season—third place—highlights creativity, but suspension and injuries hit:
- Missing players: Hoffenheim will be without Wouter Burger (suspension), Adam Hložek (injury), Koki Machida, Cole Campbell and Tim Lemperle — reducing some attacking/reinforcement options.
- Hoffenheim maintain strong momentum in league play, and coach Christian Ilzer’s side will rely on physical intensity and team discipline.
