Musiala starts and Bayern host a struggling Union in a key Bundesliga clash
Union Berlin have only one point from their first three games and head to the record champions for another tough test.
Bayern host Union Berlin in a match that, on paper, looks demanding for Köpenick. As reported by kicker, the visitors have managed just one point from their first three matches, making the trip to the record champions an even bigger test of their early form.
Musiala is in the XI
The headline team news is that Jamal Musiala starts for Bayern, with the home side looking to set the tempo from the beginning through their star option.
With that picture, attention is on whether Union can pull off an upset against a team that typically sets the pace in the Bundesliga. The key question is simple: can the Berlin side compete immediately and spring a surprise, or will Bayern lean into their home advantage?
In terms of stakes, this is a proper litmus test for both sides:
- for Union, to see if that first point is a foundation or a brief hiccup;
- for Bayern, to turn their quality into early control and points.
