Bayern Munich Midfielder Injured, Ruled Out Hour Before Real Madrid Match
Vincent Kompany stuck with a familiar plan for the trip to face the Spanish champions. Despite late concern over Bischof’s availability, he refused to alter his approach.
The late distraction — Bayern Munich Midfielder Injured, Ruled Out Hour Before Real Madrid Match — did not change Kompany’s mind. He named the same starting eleven that won in Madrid last week.
Defensive setup
Manuel Neuer kept his place in goal. Kompany selected a back four to protect him.
- Josip Stanisic at full-back
- Konrad Laimer at full-back
- Jonathan Tah in central defence
- Dayot Upamecano in central defence
Midfield control
The engine room remained unchanged. Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlovic were chosen to anchor midfield.
Attack and forward roles
The manager kept faith with an aggressive front three. Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, and Luis Diaz were tasked with creating chances.
Harry Kane stayed the focal point of the attack. The trio’s job was to supply him consistently.
Recent context
This is the identical XI that started at the Santiago Bernabeu last week. That match ended in a 2-1 victory for Bayern.
