Full-time: Leipzig 2-2 Bayern

An enthralling 90 minutes come to an end as the two sides share the spoils! Leipzig raced into a two-goal lead thanks to goals from Openda and Castello, but a penalty from Kane after the break halved the deficit. Sané's cool finish shortly after levelled things up and, despite the best efforts from both outfits, a winner was not forthcoming.

Brilliant from Ulreich!

A crucial intervention from the shot-stopper, a long way from his own goal, stops Šeško from rounding him. Manuel Neuer would have been proud of that!

xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
Bayern lead the way on xG, but it's all square in terms of the scoreline.

A brilliant turnaround for Bayern - they have restored parity! Sané is the goalscorer, keeping his composure when one-on-one with Blaswich to slot into the corner. Can Tuchel's men find a winner with momentum on their side?

Kane halves the deficit from the spot!

Die Roten are awarded a penalty when Henrichs handles Sané's free-kick in the area and, although Blaswich gets something on the spot-kick, Kane's effort is too powerful for the goalkeeper to stop it from nestling in the corner!

Half-time: Leipzig 2-0 Bayern

What a first half for Leipzig! They lead by two goals at the break thanks to strikes from Openda and Castello. The visitors, meanwhile, should have broken the deadlock through Musiala, but have otherwise offered very little in the way of attacking threat.

Leipzig team news

The Bayern boss' Leipzig counterpart Marco Rose, meanwhile, makes just two changes to the team that narrowly defeat Borussia Mönchengladbach during Matchday 5. Šeško, who scored twice in midweek as Die Roten Bullen prevailed in the DFB Cup 3-2 against Wehen Wiesbaden, is replaced by Poulsen, while Forsberg comes in for Carvalho.

Did you know...?

Thomas Tuchel and Marco Rose used to work together. When Tuchel (l.) was appointed as Mainz head coach in August 2009, Rose (r.) was his assistant for two Bundesliga games before switching to be assistant coach of the reserve team for two years.
camera-photo

Rose the record breaker

Marco Rose took over the reins at Leipzig in time for Matchday 6 in 2022/23, meaning he has been at the club for a full "season" now. In that time he has overseen 23 wins, four draws and seven defeats for a total of 73 points - exactly the same tally as Bayern over the same period. At 2.1, he has the best points-per-game average of any coach in Leipzig's history.
camera-photo

Tough to beat

Leipzig first-choice goalkeeper Péter Gulácsi is available again following injury - and was even in action in the DFB Cup during the week - but he'll have a tough time dislodging Janis Blaswich. The 32-year-old hasn't conceded a goal in 325 Bundesliga minutes and is the only custodian in Germany's top flight with three clean sheets already this term.

Goals guaranteed

In the 14 Bundesliga meetings between these teams to date, a whopping 43 goals have been scored: 26 by Bayern and 17 by Leipzig. That gives this fixture an averages of 3.07 goals per game, so the chances are good that we'll have more of the same today.

The stakes

It's still very early stages of course, but this game does offer an opportunity to lay down a marker in the title race. Bayern are currently unbeaten in the Bundesliga with 13 of a possible 15 points on the board, while Leipzig are one point further down on 12. Borussia Dortmund's victory over Hoffenheim yesterday has lifted them above both teams in the table.

Bayern team news

Bayern lost Serge Gnabry to a lower-arm fracture in their 4-0 DFB Cup win at Preußen Münster in midweek, with a lengthy lay-off the prognosis. Thomas Tuchel rang the changes on Tuesday, with Noussair Mazraoui and Leon Goretzka the makeshift pairing at centre-back. Dayot Upamecano and Minjae Kim should be fit to face Leipzig, though. Harry Kane was given a breather, while Leroy Sané was deployed as a late substitute. Manuel Neuer remains on the sidelines.
