FC Duren vs Bayern Munich Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Pre-season Friendlies 2024

Bundesliga giants are set to lock horns with German fourth-division club.

The Bavarians started their pre-season friendlies with a banging 13-goal victory against FC Rottach-Egern making Vincent Kompany’s start as coach too special at Bayern Munich.

Kristopher Fetz coached FC Duren will taste a tough battle against Bayern. The clash is expected to be more challenging as they will face the Bavarians in a gap of just over 24 hours after playing against Paderborn II. To date, the two sides have met only once, when Bayern Munich beat FC Duren by three goals in the German Cup.

Bayern Munich didn’t have a satisfactory 2023-24 domestic season. The side finished third in the league and finished as runners-up in the Super Cup. A good start to their pre-season friendlies will surely boost hope to rise.

Kick-Off:

Sunday, 28 July at 2:30 AM UK, 7:00 PM IST

Location: Karl-Knipprath-Stadion, Julich.

Form

FC Duren (in all competitions): W-W-W-W-W

FC Bayern Munich (in all competitions): W-L-W-L-L

Players to Watch:

Jan Stauch (FC Duren)

The 21-year-old German goalie is expected to start the tie. He needs to keep his reflexes perfect while facing one of the toughest attacks in the world. One will expect a hefty amount of shots from Bayern Munich and Staunch needs to stay alert to minimize the damage for his side.

Mathys Tel (FC Bayern Munich)

The 19-year-old French winger had a wonderful game against FC Rottach-Egern in the first friendly. Vincent Kompany will surely make the lethal forward start in this game and expect him to give a similar experience.

His ability to switch between the wings, penetrate the defence line and play as a striker at the time of need has earned him some handsome minutes last season. He scored a hattrick in the previous game. A similar outcome in this one will surely raise his game time when the season starts.

Match Facts:
