FC Bayern meets RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga.
It's game one after Thomas Tuchel's announced exit in the summer.
The voices.
Munich – How does FC Bayern react to the Tuchel blast during the week?
After the prematurely announced exit at the end of the season, those responsible are now hoping for a team that can play more freely.
Will it work against RB Leipzig?
After three defeats in a row, FC Bayern have their backs against the wall
The Munich team is under a lot of pressure after three competitive defeats in a row.
Bayer Leverkusen is now on eleven points.
And the German record champions need self-confidence, especially for the second leg of the Champions League against Lazio Rome.
In addition, it will probably be the first time since Tuchel's departure that one of the Bayern officials will appear publicly.
Thomas Tuchel will also meet Lothar Matthäus during the interview.
Will there be another bang?
We summarize the voices surrounding the game here.
Thomas Tuchel (FC Bayern coach) before the game on Sky about...
... a kind of farewell mood:
“No time for farewell mood.
We have a game and are prepared to fight.”
... a good farewell:
“Everything is possible in sport.”
... a possible defeat today and a subsequent lack of trust:
“On Wednesday we jointly issued a report that left little in the way of clarity.
Now not a minute has been played and they are talking about the next negative scenario.
Now we’ll play first, I don’t know what happens after that.”

“It is my job to transfer my coaching quality to the team.
We didn't manage to do that, that's a self-critical analysis.
But now we’re focusing on the game, that’s what it’s all about.”

... a reaction from the team today:
“I would be a bit surprised.
I don't feel like I'm the burden.
It doesn't matter, it's a choice.
We hoped to avoid any speculation about other scenarios.
It’s a clear decision, it gives freedom to train and play.”
... Joshua Kimmich and his acceptance of the right-back role:
“Of course, he is a complete professional.
He was the only one in the squad who had already played this position.”
... Mathys Tel's bench:
“Very good money changer.
We have Leroy, Jamal, Thomas and Harry up front.”
... Minjae Kim, who just sits on the bench:
“He just needs a break.
He came from the Asian Cup and we threw him in with jet lag.
He seems a bit overplayed.”
