We've got some quick guys up front and with them we really hurt Dortmund." Stung by a midweek German Cup elimination by third-division Saarbruecken, Leverkusen's 3-2 win at Hoffenheim on Saturday meant injury-hit Bayern were five points behind Xabi Alonso's side at kickoff.
MUNICH, Germany : Bayern Munich's shock German Cup loss to third division Saarbruecken was painful but the team are confident of winning Saturday's Bundesliga clash at Borussia Dortmund, coach Thomas Tuchel said on Friday.
Borussia Dortmund's home clash with injury-ravaged Bayern Munich on Saturday is their best chance to beat their bitter rivals in years. Bayern have not lost to Dortmund in the league in five years but travel north missing several stars, particularly in defence. The German champions confirmed on Thursday that Matthijs de Ligt will miss several games with a knee ligament injury. Fellow centre-back Dayot Upamecano is sidelined by a hamstring tear, meaning Kim Min-jae could be the only recognised central defender in Saturday's squad.
BERLIN : Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt has been ruled out for an unspecified period of time after suffering a knee ligament injury in Wednesday's 2-1 German Cup loss to third-tier Saarbruecken, the club said on Thursday.
BERLIN: Bayern Munich’s understaffed defense has been dealt another setback, with the club confirming on Thursday center-back Matthijs de Ligt will be missing “for the time being” with a knee injury. The club did not specify how long de Ligt would spend on the sidelines, saying he was “out for the time being” and “will be missing from FC Bayern in the next games.” Bayern travel to rivals Borussia Dortmund on Saturday. The Netherlands central defender injured his right knee as Bayern were eliminated 2-1 to third-division Saarbruecken in the German Cup on Wednesday night. De Ligt, who has just returned from an injury to the same knee, grabbed his leg and signalled immediately to the bench 19 minutes into the match, before being subbed out. Midfielder Joshua Kimmich moved to center-back, with Bayern having only one fit central defender in the squad. Bayern’s French center-back Dayot Upamecano has missed the club’s last four matches with a hamstring injury. Manager Thomas Tuchel confirmed after the match de Ligt’s injury was to the “same knee” and “was extremely painful.” Bayern took the lead through Thomas Mueller after just 16 minutes, but their third division opponents equalized in first-half injury time. With the scores locked at 1-1 and the game looking set to go to extra time, Saarbruecken’s Marcel Gaus scored in the sixth minute of injury time to win. The loss means 20-time German Cup winners Bayern have been eliminated in the second round in three of the past four years. Bayern sit second on the Bundesliga, two points ahead of Dortmund, and have not lost a clash between the two sides since 2018.
