Team News

Holstein Kiel
Bayern
  • Carl Johansson could return from a muscle injury, while Steven Skrzybski is nearing a return from a calf injury. Colin Kleine-Bekel is ruled out with an ACL injury, while Andu Kelati is available after suspension.
  • Summer signing Hiroki Ito is ruled out with a broken foot, while Leroy Sane is nearing a return after a groin operation.
  • Josip Stanisic will be out until late November with a knee ligament injury, while back up goalkeeper Daniel Peretz has a muscle tear.

Prediction

  • Having lost both games so far, promoted Kiel are massive outsiders to create a shock on home soil.
  • Vincent Kompany's Bayern, yes that still sounds a bit odd, have begun their quest to reclaim their Bundesliga title with two straight wins.
  • Anything other than a comfortable Bayern win in Northern Germany would be a massive surprise.
