Bayern Munich meant business in the Champions League, brushing aside Chelsea 3-1 in a lowkey dominating performance. Vincent Kompany’s men have won all their games so far and a win away at Hoffenheim should further the streak of wins.
Team news
Huge blow for Bayern as Josip Stanišić is out for the time being due to a knee injury sustained in the Chelsea match. With the Croatian as the only current starter out injured, here’s how Bayern could line up:

It’s near enough the same team that took the field against
Chelsea, the only differences being the inclusion of Sacha Boey, which puts Konrad Laimer on the left, and the return of Kim Min-jae for Jonathan Tah. The rest of the usual suspects are there: Manuel Neuer, Dayot Upamecano, Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlović, Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, Luis Díaz, and the man of the moment Harry Kane.
