Bayern Munich v RB Leipzig: predicted line-ups for Bundesliga clash

Bayern Munich welcome RB Leipzig on Saturday evening in a meeting between two sides aiming to move closer to the top of the Bundesliga. Both teams will be targeting victory in the sixth round of the German league, with several key attacking players expected to feature.

Bayern Munich

Bayern will be without Jamal Musiala, who remains sidelined with injury. Manuel Neuer is expected to return in goal, while Michael Olise, Harry Kane and Luis Diaz are likely to form the attacking line.

Kane goes into the match after scoring twice in the Champions League. His recent form will add to Bayern’s attacking threat as they prepare to face a Leipzig side with a prolific forward of its own.

The expected Bayern Munich line-up is:

Goalkeeper: Manuel Neuer

Defenders: Konrad Laimer, Jonathan Tah, Kim Min-jae, Nathaniel Brown

Midfielders: Aleksandar Pavlovic, Ismael Saibari, Joshua Kimmich

Forwards: Michael Olise, Harry Kane, Luis Diaz

Leipzig will have to cope with the absence of Baumgartner, Guiu and Ouedraogo, all of whom are injured. However, Christopher Nkunku is expected to lead the visitors’ attack after scoring a hat-trick against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Antonio Nusa and Tidiam Gomis are also among the Leipzig players likely to provide an attacking threat. Their inclusion would give the visitors further pace and options in the final third against Bayern’s defence.

The expected RB Leipzig line-up is:

Goalkeeper: Maarten Vandevoordt

Defenders: Ridle Baku, Willi Orban, Castello Lukeba, David Raum

Midfielders: Ezechiel Banzuzi, Neil El Aynaoui, Andrija Maksimovic

Forwards: Christopher Nkunku, Antonio Nusa, Romulo Cardoso

The sixth Bundesliga match of the season will see Bayern Munich take on Leipzig, with both clubs looking to strengthen their position in the race near the top of the table.
