Team News
Diallo, Nkunku and Gulácsi are out for the hosts due to injury concerns. Sarr, Hernandez, Neuer, Mazraoui and Mane are the absentees for the Visitors.
RB Leipzig possible 11:
Blaswich, Simakan, Orban, Gvardiol, Halstenberg, Schlager, Laimer, Szoboszlai, Olmo, Forsberg and Silva
Bayern possible 11:
Ulreich, Davies, de Ligt, Upamecano, Pavard, Goretzka, Kimmich, Coman, Musiala, Sane and Choupo-Moting
Prediction: RB Leipzig 1-2 Bayern Munich
Both sides are in good form on return and we expect an exciting and closely fought clash.
Leipzig need the goals from a different source as Nkunku is out of the contest while Mane’s absence has been justified with Choupo-Moting’s goals.
Bayern have the edge due to their experience and should win this one by the odd goal in three to start 2023 league form on a high.
Players to watch out for: Silva, Forsberg, Sane and Choupo-Moting.
