The Bundesliga offers a shock at the top this Saturday between 2nd and 5th. Bayern Munich hosts RB Leipzig for a valuable match for the 23rd day of the Bundesliga. At home, Thomas Tuchel’s Rekordmeister plays in a 4-2-3-1 with Manuel Neuer as the last defense behind Joshua Kimmich, Matthijs de Ligt, Eric Dier and Raphaël Guerreiro in defense. Aleksandar Pavlovic is placed on sentry duty alongside Leon Goretzka. Alone at the forefront, Harry Kane is supported by Leroy Sané, Thomas Müller and Jamal Musiala.
