Bayern Munich vs SC Freiburg: How Vincent Kompany’s side could line up for Bundesliga clash

Bayern Munich will look to keep their winning run going this weekend as they go up against the dangerous SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga.

Another tricky test lies in store for Vincent Kompany’s side in the Bundesliga this weekend as they take on SC Freiburg, who are coming off an impressive win over VFB Stuttgart. Bayern Munich will still fancy their chances of getting the three points, especially at the Allianz Arena. But we could be in for another captivating contest before the international break.

There are no big changes to Bayern Munich’s injury list, with Leroy Sané, Josip Stanišić, and Hiroki Ito still sidelined. It will be interesting to see if Kompany looks to make any major changes to the side that defeated VfL Wolfsburg last weekend.

Here we discuss how Bayern Munich could line up for their Bundesliga clash against SC Freiburg on Sunday.

GK: Manuel Neuer – Neuer will start in goal for Bayern and will hope that the defenders in front of him can finally step up.

RB: Sacha Boey – After showing glimpses of his attacking quality against Wolfsburg, Boey will hope to impress once again on Sunday. The right-back will also need to be at his best defensively.

CB: Kim Min-jae – The South Korean’s error nearly proved to be very costly on matchday one against Wolfsburg. The spotlight will certainly be on him, and he will be keen to deliver a strong performance to quell the doubts.

CB: Dayot Upamecano – Another player in need of a strong performance is Upamecano. And fans will hope that the center-back can repay the faith shown in him by the club’s hierarchy.

LB: Alphonso Davies – It will be interesting to see if we see a change at left-back on Sunday. Raphael Guerreiro’s link-up play and ability to pick out passes could be useful against a Freiburg side that will likely sit deep. But Kompany may also decide to go with the more dynamic and direct Davies.

DM: João Palhinha – Palhinha could be set for his first start for Bayern Munich. The defensive midfielder will hope to add more control to the midfield after the chaos of the second-half against Wolfsburg.
