Now in charge of Wolfsburg, the former Croatia defender’s first league game in charge did not exactly go to plan against Werder Bremen at home last week, with his side drawing 2-2 against the newly-promoted outfit.
Former Manchester City striker Lukas Nmecha gave the hosts an early lead by chipping the ball over the onrushing Jiri Pavlenka, but Bremen fired back through Niclas Fullkrug’s strike from distance and Leonardo Bittencourt’s superb header before the break. Substitute Joshua Guilavogui spared his side’s blushes late on, at least, as the midfielder rescued a point by finishing nicely from the second ball of a corner. However, the Wolves will require a much stronger showing if they are to avoid a heavy defeat in Munich on Sunday.

Indeed, Bayern have begun the season in scintillating fashion, with Sadio Mane taking no time at all to settle in following his £35m move from Liverpool. This was on full display for Bayern’s fourth goal of their 6-1 rout away to Frankfurt last Friday, with Mane dropping deep before bullying the attentions of an opposing defender. Senegal forward expertly waited for the precise moment to slip in Thomas Muller, who squared the ball for Jamal Musiala to tap home from close range.
After Gnabry made it five before half-time, the only blemish from the trip to Frankfurt was Manuel Neuer – who was undoubtedly bored by the lack of action he faced before the interval – dallying on the ball and scuppering his chances of a clean sheet in the process by allowing Randal Kolo to rob him and tap into an empty net from the edge of the area. It remains to be seen how long Bayern can continue to play this well for, but the early signs are already ominous for the rest of the Bundesliga.

While Bayern Munich will understandably be the strong favorites to win on Wednesday, Wolfsburg is likely to have their moments on home soil and they will be confident of getting their name on the scoresheet against a Bayern side who have conceded in four of their last five matches.
With Nagelsmann’s attacking players in exceptional form at present, we cannot see beyond a resounding Bayern victory on Sunday. Only a Neuer mistake prevented the Bavarians from keeping a clean sheet away to Frankfurt last week, so we expect them to achieve that on home soil this time around.
Wolfsburg 0-3 Bayern Munich, as predicted by us.
