Bayern Munich will play against FC Heidenheim in Bundesliga this Sunday.
The league leaders aim to continue their strong start by taking advantage of Heidenheim’s weak defense, which has not achieved a clean sheet in any of their league matches so far.
Bayern remains unbeaten in the Bundesliga after a challenging draw against Mainz in their last match. Kompany’s team struggled to break through Mainz’s solid defense and is looking to bounce back before the holiday break.
The team from Allianz Arena has been dominant this season, driven by Kane’s scoring spree, and is looking for a strong performance to close out the year 2025.
Kompany has several selection challenges ahead of the break. Captain Neuer will miss the match due to a minor injury, which opens the door for Urbig to take the goalkeeping role. Kimmich (ankle injury) and Musiala (leg fracture) are significant losses, and Laimer is suspended after receiving his fifth yellow card against Mainz.
Kim Min-jae is also out, along with Sacha Boey, who is ill and unlikely to play.
Jackson, on loan from Chelsea, has left to join Senegal in the Africa Cup of Nations and will not participate in this match. On a positive note, Diaz returns from suspension, and Olise is back after a minor surgery, adding talent up front.
Possible Bayern Munich starting XI: Urbig; Stanisic, Upamecano, Tah, Bischof; Kimmich, Pavlovic; Olise, Karl, Diaz; Kane.
The match will begin at 4:30 PM BST on Sunday, December 21st.
Fans in the UK can watch the game on Sky Sports, while DAZN covers Bundesliga matches in select regions.
