Stuttgart
Bayern
- With Matthieu Delpierre suspended for one game, Georg Niedermeier could start at centre-back, alongside new captain Serdar Tasci.
- Christian Gentner, Zdravko Kuzmanovic and Tamas Hajnal compete for a spot in central midfield.
- Manager Labbadia will most likely field a 4-4-2 again, with Cacau and Vedad Ibisevic up front.
- Rafinha returns to the starting line-up, after being suspended in the Bundesliga last weekend.
- Daniel van Buyten and Diego Contento are still injured, meaning Jerome Boateng will start at centre-back again, with Anatoliy Tymoshchuk switching back to midfield.
- Arjen Robben and his wife await their third baby, meaning Thomas Müller could replace the Dutchman on the right wing, with Toni Kroos switching to the central position behind Mario Gomez.
Stuttgart have quite a few players missing and I think that'lll affect them
Van Buyten will be a big loss for Bayern, but they'll have enough to deal Stuttgart
I'm not looking past Bayern for this one, even without Robben
Im Surprised Hajnal Isnt In The Starting Line-Up
