Ahead of him has been a limited option back line with Jonathan Tah, Josip Stanisic, Dayot Upamecano, Sacha Boey, Raphael Guerreiro, and Konrad Laimer having to spread the minutes across the back four.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/07\/02\/fifa-club-world-cup-quarterfinal-predictions-including-psg-vs-bayern-munich\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">FIFA Club World Cup Quarterfinal Predictions Including PSG vs Bayern Munich<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the double pivot, Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich is preferred with Aleksander Pavlovic and Joao Palhinha also offering options. Kingley Coman, Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, Thomas Muller, Leroy Sane, and Tom Bischoff have played across the attacking midfield line.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Kane is the main option up front but can be rotated out for Muller.

One worry will no doubt be their defence which let in two against Flamengo and only managed to keep one clean sheet all tournament.<\/p>\n<h3>Bayern Munich Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n<p>Per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sofascore.com\/football\/match\/winner-match-52-winner-match-51\/UHsxdb#id:13385910\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SofaScore<\/a>, there are only two absentees with Aphonso Davies definitely out and Kinsley Coman a doubt to start. Kim Min-jae travelled for the tournament but was not guaranteed to play coming off of a serious injury too.<\/p>\n<h3>Bayern Munich Predicted Lineup vs Paris Saint-Germain<\/h3>\n<p>GK &#8211; Manuel Neuer<\/p>\n<p>LB &#8211; Raphael Guerreiro<\/p>\n<p>CB &#8211; Jonathan Tah<\/p>\n<p>CB &#8211; Josip Stanisic<\/p>\n<p>RB &#8211; Sacha Boey<\/p>\n<p>DM &#8211; Joshua Kimmich<\/p>\n<p>DM &#8211; Aleksander Pavlovic<\/p>\n<p>AM &#8211; Thomas Muller<\/p>\n<p>W &#8211; Michael Olise<\/p>\n<p>W &#8211; Serge Gnabry<\/p>\n<p>ST &#8211; Harry Kane<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a Bayern Munich predicted lineup for their next outing in the Club World Cup.
