Bundesliga 2025-2026: Hamburg-Bayern Munich, the likely lineups
The 20th day of the Bundesliga offers in its program the challenge between Hamburg and Bayern Munich. Of the two formations, the one in greater need of points is undoubtedly the home side, being in the midst of a fight to save themselves, but the Bavarians will want to maintain and possibly increase the already large lead they enjoy over second-placed Borussia Dortmund.
In the last five games, the Polzin-coached team has collected three draws and two defeats: this has led them to be 14th with only three points ahead of third-last-place Mainz (Hamburg, however, has one game less). The Hanseatic coach will rely on Fernandes in goal, in midfield Remberg and Vieira will act as midfielders, while Philippe will be the sole offensive terminal.
Vincent Kompany’s team is coming off its first league defeat, a misstep that was practically useless for the purposes of the standings since the Bavarians still have an eight-point lead. The Belgian coach undoubtedly wants to return to victory and will field the starting lineup except for young Karl, who will take Musiala’s place.
Probable lineups
AMBURG (4-2-3-1): Fernandes; Mueheim, Torunarigha, Vuskovic, Capaldo; Remberg, Vieira; Dompe, Königsdörffer, Jatta; Philippe. All. Polzin.
BAYERN MONACO (4-2-3-1): Urbig; Davies, Tah, Kim, Bischof; Pavlovic, Goretzka; Olise, Karl, Diaz; Kane. All. Kompany.
