Bayern Munich vs FC Koln: Predicted XI in first home game of the season

The long wait of having fans back at Allianz Arena is set to be over on Sunday. Bayern Munich is set to host 20,000 fans at the stadium during the second league game of the season against FC Koln.

Die Roten started the campaign with 1-1 draw away at Borussia Monchengladbach last weekend. The defending German Champions have been suffering defeats at Borussia Park in the past few seasons, so one point at this stadium in the first league game can be classed decent start.

The senior players in the squad are slowly getting in the groove after getting crucial minutes under the belt. Julian Nagelsmann managed to win the first trophy of his tenure in Bavaria with 3-1 win against Borussia Dortmund in the DFL Supercup on Tuesday. Along with the good result, Die Roten were impressive against their archrivals at Signal Iduna Park.

Nagelsmann’s men will be looking to set the tone for the campaign with an emphatic win against Koln on Sunday. However, it is going to be a challenging game as Koln visits Allianz Arena on the back of 3-1 win against Hertha Berlin in gameweek 1. Let us look at the possible team that could be selected by Nagelsmann in the first home game of the new Bundesliga season.
