"Bayern players will look to dust off the Champions League disappointment and get back to winning ways on Saturday against Wolfsburg. The Bundesliga title has been sealed, but Die Roten need to regain form as they still have a DFB Pokal to play for."
"Meanwhile, the game against Bayern on Saturday is crucial for Wolfsburg. The hosts need a positive result to ensure they don't drop into the relegation zone. Wolfsburg are currently level on points with 17th-placed St. Pauli, but a better goal difference has allowed them to stay in 16th position."
"Bayern Munich suffered an injury blow on Wednesday against Paris Saint-Germain as Alphonso Davies suffered a hamstring injury. The Canadian full-back is not expected to play again for Bayern this season. Serge Gnabry remains the other long-term absentee for Bayern."
"With the Bundesliga title sealed for Bayern and an intense game in the midweek game, Vincent Kompany will make several changes to the starting XI. Jonas Urbig will start as goalkeeper instead of Manuel Neuer, ensuring Urbig continues to get adequate game time in the Bundesliga. Kim Min-jae will replace Dayot Upamecano as a center-back."
Bayern Munich were unable to qualify for the Champions League final after drawing 1-1 with Paris Saint-Germain, with PSG winning 6-5 on aggregate. Bayern will aim to recover on Saturday against Wolfsburg in a Bundesliga match. The Bundesliga title is already secured, but Bayern still has the DFB Pokal to play and needs improved performances. Wolfsburg require a positive result to avoid dropping into the relegation zone, sitting level on points with St. Pauli but above them due to goal difference. Bayern’s hamstring injury to Alphonso Davies rules him out for the rest of the season, while Serge Gnabry remains unavailable. Vincent Kompany is expected to rotate the squad, with Jonas Urbig starting in goal and Kim Min-jae replacing Dayot Upamecano in defense.
