Expected Bayern Munich lineup vs Eintracht Frankfurt

GK: Manuel Neuer - Despite poor positioning for Aston Villa's winner on Wednesday night, there is not much to discuss here. The 38-year old will be extremely motivated to put in a top performance to right the wrongs from mid-week.

RB: Raphael Guerreiro - With Konrad Laimer's technical deficiencies standing out in the defeat to Villa, we can expect Guerreiro to come back in for this one, with Sacha Boey and Josip Stanisic still sidelined.

CB: Dayot Upamecano - The Frenchman endured a difficult time against Villa on Wednesday, and can count himself a tad fortunate not to have seen red. Still, it is clear that Kompany trusts him, and we can expect him to be in the starting XI on Sunday.

CB: Kim Min-Jae - The South Korean center-back did not do much wrong against Villa, despite the defeat. Whilst he will need a break from the XI at one point with his fatigue levels ever rising, this game is just too big to take him out for, and that will have to come later. We can expect him to start here.

LB: Alphonso Davies - The Canadian international was fairly unassuming on Wednesday, but was possibly Bayern's best player against Leverkusen. With Guerreiro needed at right-back, there is little doubt that Davies will start this one.
