Who will be Bayern Munich’s Meister of the Match vs. BVB in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup?

Bayern Munich faces Borussia Dortmund in a crucial Klassiker match at the start of the 2026/27 season, with the first title of the campaign hanging in the balance. With key players like Jamal Musiala unavailable, several Bayern stars could step up to claim the title of Man of the Match.

Striker Harry Kane is expected to make an immediate impact after his return from a World Cup break, utilizing his finishing and ability to bring teammates into the attack. Midfielder Luis Díaz, now in his second season with Bayern, brings pace, directness, and one-on-one prowess that could trouble Dortmund's defense.

Central defender Michael Olise's creativity and talent for finding space could make him another dangerous attacking option. Midfield leader Joshua Kimmich's control, experience, and defensive intelligence will be vital, especially in away conditions against a top opponent like Dortmund.

Midfielder Aleksandar Pavlović, showing composure and technical quality, might have a chance to showcase his abilities and solidify his place among Bayern Munich's key players. Lastly, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer's leadership and decisive shot-stopping will be crucial in a match that demands experience, making him a top contender for the Man of the Match award.
