here again are all the players (from both clubs) who will be missing from tomorrow's bundesliga top match leipzig vs. bayern:
missing on the leipzig side: Angelino, M. Halstenberg, K. Kampl, K. Laimer & D. Szoboszlai
missing on the bayern side: J. Boateng, A. Davies, Douglas Costa, R. Lewandowski & C. Tolisso
both clubs are missing important players... but i still think that all the absences can be compensated well and it will still be a top match. both clubs can win the match, but the pressure is of course on the side of red-bull leipzig...
You also have to take into account that kimmich, goretzka, gnabry and sane had to play 3 full matches over 90 minutes within the last week in the national team. Esspecially in the last match against north macedonia it was obvious that those players all seemed to be very tired already.
Now they only have like 2 days to recover before the match against leipzig and only a few days later they have the match against paris which is probably even more important to bayern than the match on saturday.
So i think it is highly possible that flick is not starting with at least 2 of those 4 players that i mentioned to save them for the match against paris.
coach J. Nagelsmann is in the same situation, however, because a few national players from leipzig have also been active for their national teams in the last few days...
