Team News

Bayern
Leverkusen
  • Manuel Neuer should return from a thigh problem which kept him out last weekend.
  • Summer signing Hiroki Ito is ruled out with a broken foot, while Sacha Boey will be out for several months with a knee injury.
  • Josip Stanisic will be out until late November with a knee ligament injury, while back up goalkeeper Daniel Peretz has a muscle tear.
  • Barring late injuries, Xabi Alonso should have a full strength squad at his disposal.

Prediction

  • The top two will both be eyeing attractive Champions League fiixtures in midweek, but this crunch Bundesliga bonanza really gets the juices going on Matchday six.
  • After relinquishing their unbeaten record after 35 games, Xabi Alonso's record-breaking champions have bounced back with two high-scoring wins, including another trademark last-gasp winner on Sunday.
  • Vincent Kompany's Bayern have won all six games this season, including 9-2, 5-0, 6-1 demolition jobs of late and can move six points ahead of Leverkusen with another win.
  • Leverkusen have not kept a clean sheet on their last 34 trips to Munich. Last season this fixture ended 2-2 and another "Desmond" would be no surprise.

  • Surely Bayern to win here! They will be looking for revenge after losing the title to Leverkusen last season . It is their time again to take the throne! Winter is coming!

  • @StickandMove The Night King stopped them from winning, I guess.

  • @StickandMove Bayern should win because they are in better shape. They have no advantage because of a desire for revenge. Leverkusen, as reigning German champions, don't want to lose either, they're not in top form yet, maybe in the second half of the season.

  • @wawa They will seek revenge! And it's coming my lord!

  • @StickandMove hahaha

  • @StickandMove Winter is coming!!!

  • @StickandMove Yup, BTTS Bayern win
