FC Bayern Munich are set to face VfL Osnabrück in a DFB-Pokal match on Wednesday, 2nd September. The German champions, currently holding the DFB-Pokal title, enter the fixture in strong form with only one defeat in their last eight games across all competitions. Head coach Vincent Kompany's team began their season impressively by winning the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup against Borussia Dortmund.
Jonas Urbig is expected to start in goal for Bayern, while experienced captain Manuel Neuer will be given limited playing time. Creative midfielder Jamal Musiala is set to return from pre-season absence seizures, but coach Kompany will make the final decision on his availability. Serge Gnabry and Sacha Boey are both absent due to injury and potential transfer moves, respectively.
The team will likely see the impact of new signings Ismael Saibari and Nathaniel Brown, who are expected to feature prominently in the match. Bayern Munich are predicted to start with Urbig; Laimer, Ito, Tah, Stanisic; Bischof, Pavlovic; Karl, Saibari, Diaz; Ibrahimovic. The match will kick off at 7:45pm BST and will be broadcast live on Premier Sports 2 for UK viewers.
