Prediction: 1-3
Bayern Munich
Bochum and Bayern Munich face each other in a David-vs-Goliath clash at Vonovia Ruhrstadion. Bochum’s main goal for the 2022/2023 Bundesliga campaign is to secure the survival, but their slow start to the season is not giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of upcoming challenges. A man to watch in the home team will be Simon Zoller, who scored a brace in a 3-2 loss to Hoffenheim, while all Antwi-Adjej, Holtmann, and Soares remain in the recovery room.
Both Stafylidis and Goralski are major doubts. The mighty Bavarians, on the other hand, kicked off the new domestic campaign with back-to-back wins over Eintracht Frankfurt and Wolfsburg, and seeing that Julian Nagelsmann can count on key players for Sunday’s showdown, anything but a routine away win would be a major surprise. All Goretzka, Gnabry, and Choupo-Moting are likely to miss the game with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Manuel Neuer):
Manuel Neuer is a German shoot-stopper who plays for Bayern Munich. Neuer used to play for Schalke in the past and in 2011 he joined their fierce rivals FCB for a fee of €22 million. Some Bayern fans were unhappy about the signing of the Schalke goalkeeper, but they changed their quickly changed their opinions.
The 193-cm-tall keeper, who was born on 27 March, 1986 in Gelsenkirchen, has established himself as one of the best shoot-stoppers in the world and, no doubt, he helped Bayern Munich win the 2015/2016 Bundesliga trophy. In 2012/2013 Manuel Neuer and FCB clinched the Champions League trophy as they defeated fellow Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund in the title game.
Speaking of his international career, the Bayern Munich goalkeeper won the 2014 FIFA World Cup trophy with Germany and it has to be noted that he managed to keep a clean sheet in the title game (1-0). Neur’s idol as a child was Jens Lehman, who played for Germany as a goalkeeper as well.
Highlighted Team (Bayern Munich):
Over the years Bayern Munich have established themselves as one of the most successful European clubs. The Stern des Sudens (Star of the South) are the dominant force in German football and it has to be noted that the Bavarians clinched their 26th Bundesliga title in 2016. Bayern Munich have won 18 German Cup trophies, while winning the Champions League (European Cup) five times.
The German giants clinched the Intercontinental Cup in 1976 and 2001, while lifting the FIFA Club World Cup trophy in 2013. Bayern Munich was founded in 1900 by eleven football players and their leader was Franz John. The Bavarians host their rivals at Allianz Arena (75,000), the stadium that was built in 2005.
Fellow Bavarian sides TSV 1860 Munchen 1860 and Nurnberg are regarded as Bayern Munich’s fiercest rivals, but the rivalry between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern is big as well. The likes of Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Franz Beckenbauer, Lothar Matthaus, Oliver Kahn, Gerd Muller and Giovane Elber are famous footballers who played for Bayern Munich in the past.
