FC Bayern Munich will face RB Leipzig after the international break.
It's one of the most important duels of the season - there are quite a few injured now, of all times.
Munich - it was already hinted at.
And that of all things at the DFB, where ex-Bayern * coach Hansi Flick led his first games as national coach.
At first everything was quite harmless: Manuel Neuer had to pass for the World Cup qualifying game against Liechtenstein.
He should cure his capsule injury, which he had suffered in the Supercup against Dortmund.
No need to worry yet.
But then it happened in quick succession: Thomas Müller injured himself at the DFB-Elf: adductor problems, the Bayern star even had to leave.
That has never happened to him in his national team career, which is now more than 100 appearances.
The native Bavarian was not alone with this fate.
Because: on Säbener Straße * he meets fellow sufferers.
Dayot Upamecano had to leave the French team prematurely as did team-mate Corentin Tolisso.
FC Bayern Munich: Extreme bad luck with injuries before the top game against Leipzig
After his thigh problems, the newcomer from Leipzig has already started running again.
Müller joined *.
Tolisso is still out because of his calf injury.
First international trip and already three injured?
That is at least yellow alert - and that just before the top game against Leipzig.
But it gets worse.
Alphonso Davies was in action for his Canadians in the prestige duel against the USA.
He delivered a strong performance, even prepared the goal for the 1-1 final score.
Shortly before the end, however, he had to be replaced: knee injury!
There was still no exact diagnosis on Tuesday morning, but this should follow later in the day.
FC Bayern Munich: Now Kingsley Coman has also injured himself
But one more goes - now Kingsley Coman is injured too! On Monday evening,
RMC Sport's
Loïc Tanzi reported
that the French international was suffering from a calf injury. Coach Didier Deschamps said that he now had to undergo tests. He nominated Monaco striker Wissam Ben Yedder for Coman after. So let's count through again: Müller, Upamecano, Tolisso, Davies and Coman - five at least ailing national players at Bayern immediately before the Bundesliga hit against Leipzig. A real nightmare for the bosses and coach Julian Nagelsmann. Dark red alert!
At least there is the other side: Benjamin Pavard and Marc Roca are back in team training, Josip Stanisic also got involved again after his training session on Friday. Lucas Hernandez is now said to be close to his comeback. With five potential failures, Nagelsmann would still have little room for the duel against his ex-club.
