Bayern Munich’s Upcoming Match
Vincent Kompany, the coach of Bayern Munich, is confident that his team’s impressive run will continue this Saturday when they face Eintracht Frankfurt, followed by their annual Oktoberfest celebration the next day. After securing a commanding 5-1 victory over Pafos in Limassol earlier this week, Bayern has now achieved nine consecutive wins across various competitions this season.
Frankfurt’s Determination
On the other hand, Frankfurt is determined to disrupt the momentum of Kompany’s squad, especially after their own inconsistent performances recently, including a remarkable 6-4 win against Borussia Mönchengladbach but a heavy 5-1 loss to Atlético Madrid.
Kompany’s Focus on Balance
In a pre-match press conference, Kompany emphasized the importance of balance, stating, “Saturday is Saturday and Sunday is Sunday. We need to be able to separate some things in life. We like being together. It’s a moment where it’s not just about football but also about family. Bayern is a family, so we’ll take the time to be together.”
Kompany expressed his desire to claim victory in the upcoming match while maintaining the right focus on both the game and the festivities. He stressed that the team’s priority is the performance and sustaining their current momentum leading up to the title races in the spring.
Attacking Prowess
This season has seen Bayern’s attacking prowess shine, with striker Harry Kane netting an impressive 17 goals in all competitions, including 10 in the Bundesliga.
“They’re very good going forward at the moment,” noted Kompany. “It’s very impressive, but we also score a lot of goals. I’d definitely watch this match!”
Team Updates
As they prepare for the clash at Deutsche Bank Park, Bayern could welcome defender Kim Min-Jae back into the squad, while Josip Stanisic, Hiroki Ito, and Jamal Musiala will miss the match. Kompany mentioned,
“If everything goes according to plan, we’ll be fielding a similar lineup to the one we had against Pafos. Josip will return after the international break, so we need to remain patient with the others.”
Conclusion
The match presents an exciting challenge not only for Bayern but for Frankfurt as well, with both teams possessing potent offensive capabilities. Kompany is eager for his side to secure another win before they celebrate at the renowned Oktoberfest.
