"Bayern Munich have regained momentum over the last three games, winning two league games and one DFB Pokal quarter-final against RB Leipzig. The defending Bundesliga champions will look to make it three wins in a row when they host Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday. The conditions in Munich have been brutal for training as Bayern players were spotted training in the snow. Vincent Kompany's men have fared well at home this season."
"Eintracht Frankfurt have endured a poor run of form over the last five games. They are currently eight points away from the final European spot in the Bundesliga points table. A positive result on Saturday can revive the squad's performance, but it is going to take a Herculean effort to achieve this feat. Team News Bayern Munich surprisingly have a small injury list at this stage of the season."
"With Neuer sidelined due to injury, Jonas Urbig will be handed a start against Eintracht Frankfurt. The young goalkeeper will look to grab these opportunities with both hands after delivering promising performances earlier in the season. Vincent Kompany may make a significant change in central defense since Jonathan Tah is one yellow card away from suspense. Die Roten do not want him to miss next weekend's Der Klassiker."
Bayern Munich have won two league matches and a DFB Pokal quarter-final in their last three games, regaining momentum and targeting a third consecutive win at home against Eintracht Frankfurt. Training conditions in Munich have been harsh with players seen training in the snow. Vincent Kompany has made Allianz Arena a stronghold across competitions, and a win could extend Bayern's lead to nine points before Dortmund play. Eintracht Frankfurt have struggled over five games and sit eight points outside the final European spot, requiring an exceptional performance to change course. Manuel Neuer is injured and expected to be sidelined for around three weeks, prompting Jonas Urbig to start, while Michael Olise returns from suspension. Jonathan Tah is one yellow card away from suspension, with Kim Min-jae and Dayot Upamecano likely to partner in central defense and Konrad Laimer and Alphonso Davies at full-back.
