Line-ups are announced, and the players are warming up for the biggest Bundesliga match of the year. In an eyebrow-raising but not entirely shocking move, Bastian Schweinsteiger starts on the bench for Bayern.
FCB:
Gomez
Ribery - Mueller - Robben
Kroos - Gustavo
Alaba - Badstuber - Boateng - Lahm
Neuer
BVB:
Lewandowski
Grosskreutz - Kagawa - Blaszczykowski (who?)
Kehl - Guendogen
Schmelzer - Hummels - Subotic - Piszczek
Weidenfeller
Bender, Perisic, and Barrios all on the bench, and Goetze still not fit.
I'll try to have video clips up right after the match, for those who aren't able to watch live but still want highlights. There are some BVB fans register with SB Nation - if they come here to talk football, we have to be decently respectful and non-profane. If they get trollish, I'll delete them, but leave that to me.
Viva viva FC Bayern!
