FC Bayern Forum

Exactly 6 days after kick-off in this match, FC Bayern kick off away against Celtic in the Champions League. In between, Bayern host the same RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. That's 3 matches in 3 different cities in the space of 146 hours.

Only 2 more Heynckes-coached matches left between today and this match. Let's hope the team adapts quickly to his instructions.

I sincerely hope that Javi Martinez is fit for this one...
I am also fearing a Muller absence...if it is the case I would go for a JM + SRudy in midfield with Thiago behind Lewa...

That's exactly what I'd do. If Müller is healthy then put him in place of James.
James was crap today, but Tolisso and Vidal were all over the place, often out of position or occupying the wrong space....he'd have had a better game with a proper midfield, like you said.
However, knock on wood, but Müller's injury didn't look too serious. Hopefully he's able to go and it's just a cramp or something. After all he ran a marathon vs Celtic.

It's a tough game and RB Leipzig can knock us out, but we are clear favourites IMO even if we're far from our best. RB Leipzig have been doing better in the last weeks but they've been far from impressing and with lots of defensive flaws

Then again, one legged cup games are always tricky especially when you play away from home.

As long as Ulreich doesn't let us down, we should be able to go through.

As for the lineup, I just want to see our best defense (Alaba--Hummels--Boateng--Kimmich) and a solid midfield.

I don't really care who plays upfront. Coman deserves it and then I'm fine with whoever else plays. I would like to see more from James, but I think it might be better for him to build up some confidence in a home game before.

I'm sure he will eventually show us what kind of player he is.

Is Neuer fit again?

It's time for our wingers to improve the final products. We've scored enough goals so far but the wingers have not contributed to that tally much.

Robben has only 2 goals, 0 assist, Coman has 1 goal + 2 assists. Robben is struggling to burst through the opponents defenders and score some cracking goals like usually. He seems to lose his magic.

I am not positive at all about this match...
On the other hand I think that we will have the upper hand on Sat. I hope it will be other way cause we will have ample of time to catch up in the league....

for this game I am expecting

So...

Neuer, Bernat, Ribery and Mueller out.
Martinez and Hummels doubtful.

Did you purposely leave out Robben or is there something I don't know?

he might need a bit of a rest
