The friendly match between Bayern Munich and Manchester City will take place at National Stadium on Wednesday at 4:00 pm IST.
Bayern Munich and Manchester City are set to face off at the National Stadium in Tokyo on Wednesday, aiming to continue their positive momentum from their respective opening pre-season friendly wins. In their first warm-up match, the Bundesliga champions dominated Rottach-Egern with an astonishing 27-0 victory. Meanwhile, the treble winners, Manchester City, secured a 5-3 win over Yokohama F Marinos in their opening encounter last weekend.
Bayern Munich’s dominance in the Bundesliga has become customary, as they secured their 11th consecutive title in the previous season. Now, Tuchel is gearing up for his first full season in charge and faces the challenge of assembling a Bayern squad that can maintain their supremacy in the German top-flight and compete for success in the Champions League. Following the match against Manchester City, Bayern has scheduled friendlies against Kawasaki in Tokyo, Liverpool in Singapore, and Monaco back in Germany on August 7, just five days before their DFL-Supercup clash against RB Leipzig.
Following their historic treble-winning season, Manchester City began on their pre-season tour of Asia with a thrilling 5-3 victory against Yokohama F Marinos on Sunday. Despite the positives from the challenging encounter with Yokohama F Marinos, Pep Guardiola acknowledges that there are “many things” his team can improve on as they prepare for the new season. After the match against Bayern, the Premier League champions will travel to Seoul for a game against Atletico Madrid on Sunday. Then, they will return to England for the Community Shield match against Arsenal at Wembley Stadium on August 6, just five days before their opening Premier League fixture against Burnley at Turf Moor.
Bayern Munich probable starting lineup: Ulreich, Mazraoui, Pavard, Upamecano, Davies, Kimmich, Laimer, Coman, Musiala, Sane, Gnabry
Manchester City probable starting lineup: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Laporte, Stones, Rodri, Bernardo, Kovacic, Foden, Grealish, Haaland
