Stuttgart vs Bayern Munich: Gamethread

It’s the last Bundesliga game of the Hinrunde for Bayern Munich, and this time the opponents are VfB Stuttgart. Hannes Wolf has his side clicking and in decent form, so the Swabians promise to be a tough challenge for the Bavarians.

Just four days before a Klassiker against Borussia Dortmund, Bayern will want a win to keep up momentum. Coach Jupp Heynckes goes into the game without Arjen Robben, Manuel Neuer, and Thiago Alcantara, all of whom have been sidelined due to injury. Kingsley Coman is a doubt for the game, apparently experiencing problems with his hip flexors. Apart from that, Bayern have a mostly fit squad to work with. It won’t be easy, but expect the boys to get the job done.

It’s Bayern time.

2. Refresh the page regularly to keep up with the discussion. One refresh every 55-60 seconds is ideal but if that’s too much then just try for one every five minutes and after every goal.
3. The goal celebrations are for everyone to participate in. Even if you’re lagging behind the others, keep replying to the most recent call of the player’s name. Even if you missed the first call, just start from the second, and so on.
