Bayern Munich faces Leipzig to save its season in the German League… Tuchel’s last chance

Bayern Munich will host Leipzig this evening, Saturday, at the Allianz Arena, as part of the 23rd round of the German League for the 2023-2024 season.

The Bayern Munich match against Leipzig will be held at 7:30 pm today, Saturday, as part of the 23rd round of the German League, under the slogan “To be or not to be” for the Bavarian team.

Bayern Munich, which is suffering from poor results, needs to win against Leipzig to save what can be saved from the season, especially since the difference between it and leaders Leverkusen has reached 8 points, in addition to the fact that any setback the team faces in today’s match may hasten the departure of German Thomas Tuchel, Bayern’s coach. Although the club announced his departure at the end of the season, today’s result may be the end if the full three points are not obtained.

Bayern was eliminated from the German Cup by Saarbrücken, which is active in the third division, and needs to overturn its 1-0 defeat against Lazio in the first leg, when they meet in the return match on March 5 to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Bayern Munich occupies second place in the German League standings with 50 points collected from winning 16 matches, drawing 2, losing 3 matches, scoring 61 goals and conceding 25 goals, while Leipzig occupies fifth place with 40 points.

On the other hand, Leipzig is enjoying its victory in the last match against Mönchengladbach with a clean double, and is looking for a new victory today that will put it in the top four in the German League table, as the team occupies fifth place, one point behind Dortmund, which is in fourth place.
