Can debutants continue their fairytale run against German giants Bayern at Spiesen-Elversberg?
Nestled on the quiet forest edge of Spiesen-Elversberg, the URSAPHARM-Arena an der Kaiserlinde in Spiesen-Elversberg, Germany, gears up to host the Matchweek 3 fixture of the Bundesliga. Home team SV Elversberg and Bayern Munich lock horns in what is set to be a thrilling contest.
The newly promoted side in the German top flight couldn’t have asked for a better start after winning their first two games against Bayer Leverkusen and Mönchengladbach. They became the only sixth Bundesliga debutants to win their opening two games.
After a 5-1 win over VfB Stuttgart, Bayern had to settle for a goalless draw against FC Schalke in the last game. They are unbeaten in their last 10 games. Additionally, they are coming off a big 5-0 win over Bodø/Glimt in their opening UCL fixture at the Allianz Arena.
Vincent Wagner has fielded a 4-2-3-1 squad for Elversberg. French striker David Mokwa, who has scored twice so far, will be a key player to watch out for alongside Hungarian winger Petkov, who also has two goal contributions. Austrian custodian Kristof will have a tough time against an elite Bayern attack.
Vincent Kompany deployed a star-studded lineup led by Harry Kane upfront, who is yet to score a goal this season in the Bundesliga. Saibari and Karl will be on the wings. Upamecano and Kim will marshal the Bayern defence as they eye a statement win over the newly promoted side.
