Bayern Munich Predicted XI for Der Klassiker showdown against Dortmund | OneFootball

The games are coming thick and fast for Bayern Munich ahead of the winter break in December. The Bavarian club entered a crucial run of three high-profile games this week. They successfully navigated through the first big game on Tuesday by clinching a narrow but dominant 1-0 win against Paris Saint-Germain. The next challenge is a trip to Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

Bayern have been in sublime form in the Bundesliga. They are yet to taste defeat after 11 league games. Kompany’s men have stacked up wins while playing an attractive brand of win. The Belgian will look to maintain this good run of form in his first Der Klassiker as Bayern’s head coach.

Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund have shown inconsistency in the Bundesliga this season. They are currently just outside the top four and far from competing for the title. However, a win in Der Klassiker can help kickstart the league campaign for Nuri Şahin’s team.

Kompany needs to manage the squad well amidst a difficult run of fixtures, but he also needs to put out a strong team in Der Klassiker. Before Saturday’s big game, let us look at the potential starting XI that could take the field for Bayern in Dortmund.
