It's matchday at the Allianz Arena, and FC Bayern Munich are pulling out all the stops for their final home game of the season. Head coach Vincent Kompany has rung the changes, making six alterations to the starting lineup that faced VfL Wolfsburg. The big names are back: Manuel Neuer returns between the posts, while Konrad Laimer, Dayot Upamecano, and Jonathan Tah shore up the defense. In midfield, Lennart Karl and Luis Díaz are reintroduced, adding fresh legs and creativity to the engine room. This is a Bayern side that means business, and with Harry Kane leading the line, they'll be looking to finish the campaign on a high note in front of their home faithful.
Over on the visitors' side, 1. FC Köln are also shaking things up after a disappointing 3-1 loss to FC Heidenheim last week. The Billy Goats have made several changes, with Jahmai Simpson-Pusey, Alessio Castro-Montes, and Eric Martel all earning starting spots for this crucial clash. Köln will need to be at their best to contain a formidable Bayern attack, but with a reshuffled lineup, they're hoping to spring a surprise and end their season on a positive note.
Confirmed Lineups:
FC Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1): Neuer; Laimer, Upamecano, Tah, Bischof; Kimmich, Goretzka; Karl, Musiala, Díaz; Kane
1. FC Köln (3-4-2-1): Schwäbe; Schmied, Simpson-Pusey, Özkacar; Sebulonsen, Castro-Montes, Martel, Lund; El Mala, Kamiński; Bülter
