Preview
RB Leipzig head into this after a 5-0 hammering at the hands of Liverpool in their final pre-season clash last week.
This was a tough pill to swallow for the German side as they head into a final against a high-flying Bayern Munich side, looking solid.
The loss of Lewandowski will hurt the Bavarians but they will be ready to turn the tables in the upcoming season.
On the other hand, Bayern Munich lost 1-0 to Manchester City in their previous pre-season clash last week.
Haaland scored the only goal in that contest to inflict a first defeat in their preparations towards the new season.
Bayern Munich are a confident bunch and despite an indifferent pre-season will be looking to start off on a high.
Both teams last met in February during the Bundesliga, where Bayern won 3-2. Muller, Lewandowski and Gvardiol (og) scored for the Bavarian side while Silva and Nkunku scored for Leipzig.
