Last Word on Football brings you our Bayern Munich predicted lineup for the match.<\/p>\n<h2>Bayern Munich Predicted Lineup vs VfB Stuttgart<\/h2>\n<h3>How Bayern Munich Have Lined Up Recently<\/h3>\n<p>Given the many big games in a short period of time, coach Vincent Kompany made many changes to his starting lineups in recent matches. At the weekend against Eintracht Frankfurt, he sent out the following 11:<\/p>\n<p>Manuel Neuer was in goal, while Konrad Laimer, Eric Dier, Kim Min-jae and Hiroki Ito made up the back four.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlovic were the holding midfielders. Finally, Michael Olise, Leroy San\u00e9, Jamal Musiala, and Thomas M\u00fcller started as the offensive quartet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/10\/17\/bayern-munich-vs-vfb-stuttgart\/\" target=\"_self\">Why the Bayern Munich Vs VfB Stuttgart Southern Derby is So Important<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That means that the coach brought in Ito, Dier, Laimer, Pavlovic, San\u00e9 and M\u00fcller for Raphael Guerreiro, Dayot Upamecano , Josip Stanisic, Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry and Harry Kane.<\/p>\n<h3>Bayern Munich Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n<p>Recent form has been relatively good for the Bavarians, as the match against Frankfurt in particular was likely the best game of the season from them so far. As we move towards March, April and ultimately May, they will need to show much more of that going forward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/02\/25\/bayern-munich-joshua-kimmich-injury\/\" target=\"_self\">Bayern Munich Ace with \u2018Incredible Ability\u2019 Suffers Injury<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tactically, they played a 4-2-2-2 with two false number nines last time out, but should Kane be fully fit, they will revert back to their standard 4-2-3-1 formation.<\/p>\n<h3>Bayern Munich Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n<p>Speaking of injuries, Kompany said at the pre-match <a  href=\"https:\/\/fcbayern.com\/de\/news\/2025\/02\/ticker-pressetalk-des-fc-bayern-vor-dem-gastspiel-beim-vfb-stuttgart\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">press conference<\/a> that it would take a \u201cmiracle\u201d for Kimmich to recover in time for this match. Beyond that, backup goalkeeper Daniel Peretz is likely going to miss this one as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Bayern Munich Predicted Lineup vs VfB Stuttgart<\/h3>\n<p>Neuer, Laimer, Upamecano, Kim, Davies, Goretzka, Pavlovic, Olise, Musiala, San\u00e9, Kane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, one day after the 125th anniversary of the club\u2019s founding, Bayern Munich travel to take on VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga\u2019s Southern Derby.
