FC Bayern München vs RB Leipzig
Match Preview
It's only a preseason friendly, but there's plenty to watch when Bayern Munich host RB Leipzig. Bayern enter as reigning Bundesliga champions after a record-breaking 34th title last season, while Leipzig finished third and booked another Champions League campaign. Bragging rights and early sharpness are both on the line.
Bayern have looked sharp in preparation, winning four of their last five warm-up games and adding Nathaniel Brown and Ismael Saibari to the squad, with Harry Kane still leading the line up front. Leipzig's buildup has been bumpier, leaky defensively and adjusting to life without long-time goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi, who left for Villarreal after 11 years, with Maarten Vandevoordt now first choice. Young defender Yan Diomande, who reportedly turned down a €100m Real Madrid approach, is one to watch. Historically this fixture heavily favors the hosts, who are unbeaten in their last seven meetings with Leipzig.
