Holstein Kiel – Bayern Munich: GOOOAAAL! An own goal makes it 3-0!

13' – GOOOOOAAAL! It's an own goal, but an own goal that was 99% caused by Jamal Musiala.

6' – GOOOOOAAAL! Harry Kane scores to make it 2-0!

1' – GOOOAAAL! Musiala scores (practically) from the kick-off.

Start: We are on the way!

One hour left until kick-off: We've got the lineups! It looks like João Palhinha will make his first official start for Bayern Munich, while Alphonso Davies and Michael Olise move to the bench for Guerreiro and Coman. The rest of the XI is no surprise – the usual suspects are all in the lineup.

After the international break, Bayern Munich can now move on to one of the busiest periods of the season – the September-October campaign. League matches are approaching and Champions League games are coming up. This is where a coach has to prove his skills.

Vincent Kompany has won all his games so far, which is a good start, but there is always the risk that the international break has disrupted the team's rhythm, and a team like Holstein Kiel (who didn't have to send players on international duty) could create a surprise at their home stadium.

Kompany must prevent this at all costs and at the same time keep his best players – Harry Kane, Jamal Musiala, Joshua Kimmich and others – fit for the upcoming CL opener against Dinamo Zagreb. This is the delicate balancing act that every coach must master if he wants to be successful in Munich.

It's Bayern time.
