Team News

Bayern
Stuttgart
  • Julian Nagelsmann may wield the rotation shield with bigger games ahead.
  • Jamal Musiala has recovered from an adductor injury, along with Eric Choupo-Moting who recently had an operation to ease problems with kidney stones.
  • France international Kingsley Coman suffered a muscle injury in training on Friday and is ruled out.
  • Laurin Ulrich is struggling with a hip injury.
  • Luca Pfeiffer is suspended for two more games after his recent red card, while Josha Vagnoman is also suspended after his sending off last weekend.
  • Nikolas Nartey has a thigh injury and will be out for several weeks. Tanguy Coulibaly could return to the squad though.

Prediction

  • A southern derby where perennial champions Bayern face three time Bundesliga winners VfB.
  • Stuttgart are still looking for their opening win of the campaign and look set for another season of struggle, especially if they keep on selling their best players, with Sasa Kalajdzic the latest sale to Wolves.
  • Despite third-placed Bayern having a Champions League trip to Italy to recover from in midweek, anything other than a comfortable home win would be a huge surprise.
