FC Bayern Munich are in the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup after defeating TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. Thomas Müller can convince again - one falls off in defense.
- FC Bayern Munich will face 1899 Hoffenheim in the DFB Cup round of 16 on Wednesday (8.45pm).
- After good news from the hospital last time, Ivan Perisic is now out of the FCB.
- Which starting elf does Hansi Flick trust now? We have thought about the setup .
Update of February 5, 2020, 10:42 p.m .: First Bayern fall behind TSG Hoffenheim, then they react ice cold. After Jerome Boateng's own goal in the 8th minute, only five minutes later the equalization was again made by an own goal by Hoffenheim's Benjamin Hübner (13th).
The strong Thomas Müller (20th) and Robert Lewandowski (36th) raised the result to 3: 1 before half-time. After the break tea, Bayern then slowed down, which gave TSG promising chances but did not know how to take advantage of them.
In the 80th minute Lewandowski then extended the lead with his second headed goal - but the Kraichgauer did not give up and needed extra tension with a double pack from Dabbur. In the end, however, the final score was 4: 3.
In the end, Thomas Müller was allowed to fight for the title “Man of the match” with one template and one goal and Robert Lewandowski (2 goals). Jérôme Boateng , on the other hand, was not really convincing.

After Perisic shock: Hansi Flick rotates vigorously in midfield - Thiago and Goretzka only on the bench
Update from February 5, 2020, 7:47 p.m .: Flick relies on the services of Serge Gnabry on the outside track again. This changeover was to be expected. The fact that the Bayern coach also changes in midfield and brings Tolisso and Coutinho for Thiago and Goretzka comes as a small surprise, especially since both players have recently shown strong performances.
Update from February 5, 2020, 7.45 p.m .: This is how Hansi Flick lets Hoffenheim play tonight: Neuer - Pavard, Alaba, Boateng, Davies - Kimmich, Tolisso, Coutinho - Müller, Lewandowski, Gnabry

- FC Bayern Munich (@FCBayern) February 5, 2020Munich - Things are going very quickly at FC Bayern München *. After the third strong Bundesliga appearance in a row, the Reds now have to play in the DFB Cup . On Wednesday evening there will be a duel with the TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in the Allianz Arena * (here in the live ticker).
Who does coach Hansi Flick *, whose future, according to FCB President Herbert Hainer , might well be in Munich, trust? In the last DFB Cup game against VfL Bochum , you just got away with a black eye. A departure against the Kraichgauer, with whom Flick has a special relationship, would be a disaster for the ambitious defending champion. Ivan Perisic's injury should also be classified under this category - he contracted an ankle fracture in Tuesday's training. Who will replace him? We thought about the starting eleven.
Bayern Munich: lineup against 1899 Hoffenheim - who is in goal?
In wet and cold weather and wind, it is of course not easy for goalkeepers either. Captain Manuel Neuer will be armed against Hoffenheim and will of course be back in goal.
The fact that a number one makes way for its representative at least in the cup is quite common in some clubs. At FCB, this model is not an issue, at least in the current season.
Bayern Munich: lineup against 1899 Hoffenheim - who plays in the defense?
Coach Hansi Flick has found his formation - also for the DFB Cup ? Most recently, Benjamin Pavard , Jerome Boateng , David Alaba and Alphonso Davies formed the main line on the defensive. Of course, it is conceivable that Flick will try newcomer Alvaro Odriozola.
From the beginning, however, we tend not to see the young Basque against Hoffenheim - the game is too important for this and the opponent too strong to try an experiment.
Bayern Munich: lineup against 1899 Hoffenheim - who can go in the middle?
Things are looking very good in the Bavarian center at the moment. Joshua Kimmich is now set in the defensive midfield anyway, plus magic foot Thiago , who is now finally a magic foot. But how long in Munich? Apparently he is thinking of a change.
Leon Goretzka has also established itself as a classic box-to-box player. Flick will certainly think of this triangle again against Hoffenheim. For Corentin Tolisso and Philippe Coutinho, initially only the bank remains. However, because the coming weeks will be exhausting, the FCB coach is likely to change early after half time.
Bayern Munich: lineup against 1899 Hoffenheim - who plays in the storm?
It was a "shock" that Flick and Bayern experienced in training on Tuesday morning. Alvaro Odriozola seriously injured Ivan Perisic, who recently played well, in a tackle. The bitter diagnosis: fracture in the outer ankle, surgery, a four-week break, then advanced training.
i Hansi #Flick: "The ankle has to be screwed down. It will take about four weeks for the injury to heal. Then he will start training again."

Flick has to find a new third man for the congenial duo Robert Lewandowski / Thomas Müller . Kingsley Coman will probably only be an option again in the Bundesliga crash against Leipzig, over which national striker Timo Werner has already lost one or the other interesting thesis *. So this means that Serge Gnabry will be there against TSG from the start.
Bayern Munich: lineup against 1899 Hoffenheim in the scheme
Neuer - Pavard, Boateng, Alaba, Davies - Kimmich, Thiago, Goretzka - Gnabry, Lewandowski, Müller.
