FCB-PK in the live ticker: Goretzka not sure in the starting XI, Mazraoui will start
Update, 12:32 p.m.: Against Barcelona, right-back Noussair Mazraoui came on following the Pavard injury and did well. Nagelsmann says: “Excellent, we don’t need to talk much regarding that, he had good offensive actions and defended very well, which is not easy once morest Barcelona. He did well, feels more trust from me and also has more trust in himself. He will start tomorrow and can show what he’s capable of.”
Update, 12:28 p.m.: FC Augsburg has a new coach in Enrico Maassen. “I don’t know him personally, but my assistant coach Dino Toppmöller taught him football. I know that he basically pursues a football heel. When you take on a new team, it’s also regarding delivering results, with a certain simplicity. They play a lot of long balls and take fewer risks. We not only prepare for long balls, but also for football elements. But I know from my assistant coach how he thinks regarding football.”
Update, 12:24 p.m.: Leon Goretzka would be fully operational once more, is he playing? “Possibly, but I’m not 100% sure. I’ll decide that in the course of today, the probability is already there because he did well, was a goal threat and brought good stability defensively. At least I didn’t make a decision in every position.”
FCB-PK in the live ticker: Nagelsmann avoids saying 1860 – “At another Munich club…”
Update, 12:21 p.m.: Now the first international break is coming up, is Nagelsmann satisfied? “We’re behind in the table and in terms of points, behind what we had imagined. If you look at it purely football-wise, we had a good phase – if you exclude the Stuttgart game, that was okay, but not great. It was also difficult once morest Union to show a footballing treat, it’s a lot regarding fighting. Similar to tomorrow at Augsburg, who play a lot of long balls, go for the second ball, play into the block in front, finish early and shoot a lot from distance,” said the coach. “In terms of content, the block was good, but we expected results other than three points from the last three games, that’s clear.”
Update, 12:17 p.m.: Julian Nagelsmann played for the youth and reserve team at FC Augsburg, where his coaching career also began. “It’s been a while, Augsburg was the first big club I played for. Then I was at another club in Munich, then once more in Augsburg, but I might hardly play there because I used to be injured. Then I dinged around the sports fields and filmed with the camcorder and wrote down what the opponents were doing and explained it to Thomas (Tuchel, note). He had the basic idea. But there are hardly any left of people who were in Augsburg at the time. I only know the kit manager, but that’s where it ends. In general, Augsburg is close to my hometown, my mother and my sister and my partner are also coming tomorrow.”
PK in the live ticker: Nagelsmann focused before the FCA game – “I’m not thinking regarding the Wiesn yet”
Updated at 12:13 p.m.: perennial favourite Joshua Kimmich will also play once morest FCA: “I assume that he will start tomorrow, even if he has played all the games so far. That’s his claim and his desire to always play. You can’t respond to every wish, but I generally don’t like to do without it if it’s physically possible.”
Update, 12:11 p.m.: Nagelsmann’s first visit to the Oktoberfest is imminent, which he comments: “To be honest, I’m not thinking regarding the Oktoberfest yet, it’s very omnipresent in Munich and I’m happy for everyone who is cheering and looking forward to it. I want to win my game first, in Augsburg.”
Update, 12:09 p.m.: Now it’s regarding Ryan Gravenberch, who hasn’t played much yet. “He played a few games, but maybe a bit too little for his skills, which is also due to the competition. Now Leon is back too, who did well. He’s a young player who still needs some acclimatization. He has all the qualities offensively, has a great finish, but he still has to take a few steps defensively, which is why he plays a little less.”
Bayern-PK in the live ticker: Nagelsmann sure that Mané “gets back to his optimum”.
Update, 12:07 p.m.: The coach is asked regarding Sadio Mané, who has recently been weakening. “It’s normal to be dissatisfied when you’re very ambitious. What is very pleasant regarding him: He is very self-reflective. You don’t have to explain to him a day later why he was substituted. I’ve said many times that he’s very humble and down-to-earth. (…) He will get back to his optimum.”
Update, 12:03 p.m.: First, Nagelsmann is asked regarding the staff. “Lucas is out, it will take a few more weeks, King is not yet available and Bouna,” said the coach. “Upa is looking good, it was just a slap on the knee on a painful area on the outside of the knee. It’s nothing dramatic, he didn’t train yesterday even though he might have trained. But he will be able to do the final training and play as normal, the same applies to Benjamin Pavard. He’s regained his strength.”

Munich – In the Champions League FC Bayern showed its strong side on Tuesday. As once morest Inter Milan, Munich might also won their second game once morest Barcelona 2-0.

PK before Augsburg in the live ticker: Bayern coach Nagelsmann will probably make changes
The starting eleven should be of particular interest to the fans. Nagelsmann will have to make changes following the absence of Lucas Hernández, who tore a muscle in the closing minutes once morest Barca. In the central midfield and on the offensive, there are also some changes in personnel for the weekend. Whether the 35-year-old can look at the cards remains to be seen.
Actually, Nagelsmann shouldn’t worry too much once morest Augsburg, even if Bayern did last season sensationally lost 2:1 to the Fuggerstadt team. Because FCA is the favorite opponent of the FCB head coach, who also has an Augsburg past. Nagelsmann has not celebrated more victories once morest any team than once morest the Swabians, he has won ten times so far.
