Three weeks after tearing a muscle fiber in his thigh, Harry Kane reported back to FC Bayern Munich and was back in the league leaders' starting line-up in the last game of the year. In the Bundesliga home game of the German football record champions against RB Leipzig, a week after the first defeat of the season in Mainz, the Munich team are hoping for goals from the Englishman, who was sorely missed on the offensive.
In addition to Kane, coach Vincent Kompany can also call on Alphonso Davies from the start in the evening in the Munich Arena. The Canadian international is back in action just two weeks after suffering a muscle injury.
At the start of the last matchday before the winter break, Bayern can extend their lead in the table with a win against fourth-placed Saxony, at least until Saturday, to extend their lead by seven points to second-placed German champions Bayer Leverkusen.
