The first one is also part of the game Goalkeeper Yann Sommer signed on Thursdaywho was only able to complete one session with the German record champions after weeks of alternating poker. (Jörg Stiel in an interview: Summer not long at Bayern?)

And yet it will be in the box right away: Julian Nagelsmann gives Sommer direct confidence against Leipzig.

“I expect that he doesn’t think too much about it, but plays like he did in Gladbach. He’s an exceptionally good goalkeeper, which will do us good, even today against a pressing opponent,” said Nagelsmann about his debutant DAZN.

Sommer is “a very good personality who can coach, who has already coached in training. He is a national goalkeeper, has had an unbelievable number of years and players in Gladbach, with an unbelievably large amount of experience. He shouldn’t have any reason to be nervous, just play the way he’s used to.”

In front of the newcomer, Pavard, de Ligt, Upamecano and Davies play in the back four. Goretzka and Kimmich run in front of them, while Gnabry, Musiala and Sané whirl on the offensive. Right in front Choupo-Moting charges.

Thomas Müller and Kingsley Coman are therefore only on the bench. There are also newcomers Daley Blind, Marcel Sabitzer, Josip Stanisic, Ryan Gravenberch, Paul Wanner, Mathys Tel and substitute keeper Sven Ulreich.

Surprisingly, the line-ups were not published until 42 minutes before the start of the game. Technical problems were the reason for this, as the broadcaster Sat.1 revealed. In the stadium, too, all journalists waited a long time for the line-up. (NEWS: All current information about the Bundesliga)

Usually the starting formations are presented 60 minutes before the start. Bayern then tweeted the line-up at 7:49 p.m., Leipzig followed four minutes later.

Timo Werner is back in the squad, but initially only on the bench. André Silva plays at the top, Konrad Laimer, who is about to move to Bayern Munich in the summer, forms the double six with Xaver Schlager. Goalkeeper Peter Gulácsi and star striker Christopher Nkunku are still injured.

“We will certainly see and need Timo today,” announced coach Marco Rose. Referee of the game is Daniel Siebert (Berlin).

Cup winners against champions, third against first – according to veteran Thomas Müller, Bayern want to “set an example” and “take the lead” at the cracking start.

The lead over Freiburg, the closest pursuer, is four points, Leipzig is six and their “eternal” rival Dortmund is nine points behind the leaders. (DATA: The table of the Bundesliga)

War announcements could not be heard from the competition. RB still sounds the most bold. “The day will come when Bayern have to vacate the throne,” said sporting director Max Eberl.

But coach Marco Rose made it clear before the duel: “I don’t have to start blustering and talking about the championship.”

His eleven are “really up for it” and who is in goal for Bayern “doesn’t matter either. We try to shoot left and right.”

Bayern have been warned, like Leipzig, they have been unbeaten in eight Bundesliga games. (DATA: Bundesliga schedule)

Coach Julian Nagelsmann sees his former club as a “main competitor for the title” and a “good indicator”.

Joshua Kimmich said: “We’re about to be put to the test.”

The national player emphasized that the record champions first had to “regain the flow” from the weeks before the break.
