On Friday night, Bayern Munich will play it’s second easiest game in this season’s schedule. The current Bundesliga champions are playing against newly promoted Greuther Furth, and the most easiest game of the schedule will be next year, against the same opponent, but at home, in Munich. Greuther Furth is the perfect opponent for Julian Nagelsmann’s men: they got promoted to Bundesliga mainly due to other clubs failure and they are not prepared for such a strong competition, they have not won any of it’s last 19 home games in Bundesliga, and they have defeated Bayern the last time in 1964.Welcome to the meat grinder! Bayern annihilate Bochum to go top of the leagueThe current champions will be on the lookout not only for a win, but to make a few more Bundesliga records: Robert Lewandowski could set another historic record for Gerd Muller if he scores in the 16th game in a row. Also, with another assist, Thomas Muller will catch up Franck Ribery, who set the record for the most Bundesliga assists in a calendar year in 2011 (20). Furth trio Green, Timothy Tillman and Adrian Fein, will be especially motivated for this game, since all came through Bayern’s youth academy. Tillman’s brother Malik is still in Bayern and received a new contract two days ago. But even with all three players playing the games of their lives, it will be hard for the home team to stop Bayern.🗣️ @J__Nagelsmann on the start to the season: “I’m impressed with the desire and character of the team. However, we still have a lot of potential and I think that we will get even better. I’m looking forward to that.” #SGFFCB #FCBayern pic.twitter.com/vqrOEANbV1— FC Bayern English (@FCBayernEN) September 23, 2021 In the last seven matches in all competition, the Bavarians always scored at least three goals in ninety minutes. During this period, they scored 37 goals (!), which means they ’shake’ the opponents net every 17 minutes. And in case you forgot, they played against another Bundesliga newcomer Bochum last week, and they destroyed them 7-0. Still, Nagelsmann was kind enough to talk about the game like it’s something hard.„The heading above our tactics board says ‘our objective is crucial’. We need three points, that’s the only way we’ll get closer to our objective of a tenth successive league title. We’ll get as many points against Furth as we would in a match against Dortmund. We have nothing to give away” said the former Leipzig coach.Golden Shoe winner Lewandowski hopes to become ‘even better’His counterpart Stefan Leitl acknowledged the challenge ahead of his team.“It’s definitely the biggest challenge in German football. Bayern will take control from the first second. We can cast off the shackles and play with enjoyment and courage. It’s important that we perform to our limit” said Leitl.Serge Gnabry and Jamal Musiala are in contention for this match, as well as Lucas Hernandez. Kingsley Coman started to train after a heart operation, but is too early for him to play in any game yet. Sven Ulreich suffered an injury in training and will be sidelined, along with Corentin Tolisso, which means that Christian Fruchtl will be Neuer’s backup in this game.BUNDESLIGA ROUND 6Fri 21:30: (20.0) Greuther Furth (12.0) Bayern (1.12)Sat 16:30: (1.80) Union Berlin (3.60) Bielefeld (5.20)Sat 16:30: (1.38) RB Leipzig (5.20) Hertha (9.00)Sat 16:30: (2.95) Hoffenheim (3.40) Wolfsburg (2.55)Sat 16:30: (2.10) Eintr.Frankfurt (3.50) Koln (3.80)Sat 16:30: (1.80) Leverkusen (3.70) Mainz (5.00)Sat 19:30: (4.30) M’ gladbach (3.90) Dortmund (1.85)Sun 16:30: (3.05) Bochum (3.40) Stuttgart (2.45)Sun 18:30: (2.00) Freiburg (3.50) Augsburg (4.10)
