This is the expected Bayern Munich lineup for their match at Mainz 05 on the road during Bundesliga Matchday 8. It’s important to remember that Mainz has won the last three league meetings it’s had with Bayern, despite the Bavarians’ strong start to the season and the 05er’s poor early performances.
The predicted lineup for Bayern Munich’s match against Mainz 05 is below.

The center-back combination was made up of Kim Min-Jae and Dayot Upamecano, while holding midfielders Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich supported the front four of Kingsley Coman, Thomas Müller, Leroy Sané, and Harry Kane.
Borussia Dortmund Recent Techniques and Form
Bayern’s 4-2-3-1 configuration will likely not change. Given their small squad and the numerous injuries they frequently deal with, they do not have many alternatives in terms of variation. Their performance-based form hasn’t been as strong as their results-based form.
With five triumphs and two draws in the Bundesliga, two close wins in Champions League matches, and a victory in the opening round of the German Cup, they have frequently been more fortunate than convincing. If they want to have a realistic chance of winning all three major awards this season, that should change as quickly as possible. Since their most recent 2019–20 season in which they won the triple, they have failed to do that.
Consider the Injuries for Bayern Munich
Raphael Guerreiro is once again sidelined, and Serge Gnabry is still listed as injured. The absences of Mazraoui and Upamecano are also certain. In his news conference on Friday, coach Thomas Tuchel stated that both Goretzka and Kimmich are questionable for Saturday’s game in Mainz.
In regards to Manuel Neuer, the manager stated that the goalkeeper is in excellent health but need further center-back training to reacquaint himself with their playing philosophies and habits.
Predicted lineup for Bayern Munich vs. Mainz 05
Kane, Goretzka, Davies, Musiala, Goretzka, Coman, Müller, Sané, and Ulreich.
