Team news & squads
Wehen Wiesbaden team news
Wehen Wiesbaden have started the 3. Liga campaign brightly with a win and a draw, but lost 4-3 to Rot-Weiss Essen in their last outing, exposing defensive fragilities. Manager Nils Döring is expected to set up in a 4-4-2 with captain Fatih Kaya (20 goals last season), Moritz Flotho, and new signings Lukas Schleimer and Simon Stehle leading the attack.
Defensive leader Sascha Mockenhaupt is doubtful, which could force changes at right back; Jakob Lewald and Jordy Gillekens form the core of the back line. The squad otherwise has no major injury absences, with a refreshed lineup expected for their biggest home fixture in years. With eight summer signings, Wehen are still finding chemistry, but the expectation is to play with courage and counterattack when possible.
Bayern Munich team news
Bayern Munich enter the match on a high after thrashing RB Leipzig 6-0 in their Bundesliga opener and lifting the German Super Cup against Stuttgart. Vincent Kompany has a deep squad, but several long-term injuries remain: Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies, Tom Bischof, and Kingsley Coman are all out and unavailable.
New signings Luis Díaz, Jonathan Tah, and Michael Olise bolster the side, while Harry Kane enters in top scoring form after a Bundesliga hat-trick. Bayern are likely to rotate, but strong core starters remain, including Kane, Olise, Kimmich, and Goretzka. No fresh injury concerns are reported and lineup news confirms full strength outside the few long-term absentees.
