Kickoff! — LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Lineups are out! Jonas Urbig starts in goal with Ismael Saibari, Serge Gnabry, and Joshua Kimmich all starting; Aleksandar Pavlović is back in action too. Harry Kane’s image is him holding his Ballon d’Or, a nice touch.

Bayern Munich is currently on a two-match winning streak, beating SC Freiburg 3-1 away and then sealing progression in the DFB-Pokal by thrashing 2. Bundesliga outfit FC Magdeburg 6-1 in the second round. Up next is a real acid test: Der Klassiker against Borussia Dortmund in the Allianz Arena.

The Schwarzgelben, playing a lot like Premier League side Arsenal, is level on points with Bayern yet they are second in the league thanks to their inferior goal difference. The Bavarians already got a taste of this Black and Yellow team in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup and won 2-1. Can the Rekordmeister repeat the trick today?

Prediction

Bayern wins 2-1. This will be a tightly contested match, similar to the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup a few months ago. Harry Kane and Michael Olise will score, before yet another sloppy defensive error in the final minutes will make for a nervy finish. Bayern will still hold on for the win, however.

It’s Bayern time.
