Consistency in selection of the back five for Bayern Munich

Sven Ulreich filled in for Neuer last weekend against FC Koln. Neuer had suffered a minor injury during 3-1 win against Borussia Dortmund in DFL Supercup. The skipper is now ready to resume the duty in the goal after recovering from this injury.

The center-back pairing of Niklas Sule and Dayot Upamecano has worked well for Rekordmeister in the initial few games of the season. Yes, Die Roten has conceded goals, but the duo has looked solid together. Most importantly, they complement each other perfectly.

More from Bayern Strikes

Alphonso Davies will be slotting in the left-wingback role. The young wing-back was deservedly rested for the game against Bremer SV as Omar Richards made his competitive debut for the club.  Davies has started the campaign much better than he did last year. He has been a menace for Die Roten while going forward.

In the first month of the campaign, Josip Stanisic has been the success story for Die Roten. The youngster has grabbed the opportunity of playing in the right-back position for the senior team with both hands. After being rested in the DFB Pokal game this week, Nagelsmann is likely to bring the Croatian defender back in the team for the game against Hertha Berlin.
