What is remarkable is that Union Berlin has not gone without a win so often against any other opponent in the Bundesliga. Bayern also have a coach in Vincent Kompany who scored 20 points in his first eight Bundesliga games – something Carlo Ancelotti last achieved in 2016.

Compared to the 4-0 cup win at Mainz 05, coach Vincent Kompany changed his starting eleven to four positions. Dayot Upamecano, Raphael Guerreiro, Kingsley Coman and Michael Olise join the team. Eric Dier, Konrad Laimer, Serge Gnabry and Leroy Sané are on the bench.
Before kick-off, Kompany was at Sky asked why he decided against Sané. “The wingers have all scored goals in the last few weeks. We need the whole team. “This is the third game in six days,” replied the Bayern coach. There are still many games and opportunities to prove yourself. Now it is important that all offensive players maintain their good form.

In attack, the coach also relies on the recently outstanding Jamal Musiala and goalscorer Harry Kane. Joshua Kimmich and Palhinha are in the midfield.
Benedict Hollerbach is the man of the hour at 1. FC Union Berlin. Since the start of the 2023/24 season, he has scored seven goals for the Iron Men, making him his team’s top goalscorer. However, he has scored all of his goals in home games, which presents a challenge for today’s away game.
Hollerbach last scored in the 1-1 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt and will try to continue his scoring streak at the Allianz Arena. Union Berlin has already collected 15 points this season, more than in the entire first half of the previous season.
The lineups:
FC Bayern: Neuer – Guerreiro, Upamecano, Kim, Davies – Palhinha, Kimmich – Olise, Musiala, Coman – Kane

The Munich team also allowed the fewest opposing shots on their own goal, which underlines their defensive stability. Both teams will try to play to their strengths and exploit their opponents’ weaknesses.
