Bayern Munich team news
Manager Vincent Kompany has an almost full squad at his disposal, bolstered by the return of Konrad Laimer after a calf problem. The Austrian is once again a contender, with his head coach pointing out in training that the entire squad is fit, players look sharp and the team is able to enjoy a rare full training week.
Harry Kane is back in full training after falling ill earlier this week and is expected to spearhead the attack. Kane has scored 22 goals in 20 Bundesliga games this season and 37 goals in all competitions.
However, there are slight concerns about Neuer, who missed Friday’s game with a gastrointestinal issue, casting some doubts over his playing time. Kompany is thought to be optimistic that his experienced goalkeeper and captain will be ready for the game against Hoffenheim.
