Player Recommendations
Joshua Kimmich (D): Kimmich is rated as one of the best in his position in the world of football. The 24-year-old is surely living up to the hype, as he is having an outstanding season for the club, both offensively and defensively. On the attacking end, Kimmich has proved his worth going forward from the right flank and is the top assist (12 ) provider for the club in the league campaign, and he has scored two goals. On the defensive front, Kimmich is averaging 1.3 tackles per game, a number which becomes more impressive if it is combined with one interception and 0.9 clearances.
Serge Gnabry (M): Gnabry has been one of Bayern's most influential players in the middle of the park. The 22-year-old's 10 goals are the second-most on the team, trailing only striker Robert Lewandowski, and he also has five assists. Defensively, Gnabry has done a decent job, averaging 1.4 tackles and 0.9 interceptions per game.
Luka Jovic (F): Jovic is one of the hottest young players in European football. The 21-year-old is having an outstanding season, scoring 17 goals in the league campaign. News in the media suggest that Jovic might be joining Spanish giants Real Madrid before the start of next season, therefore Saturday's game may be his last for Frankfurt.
Captain pick: Robert Lewandowski
Vice-captain pick: Luka Jovic
