The whole week at Bayern has been overshadowed by Roy Maakay's move, but they still have to play Hanover this weekend. Match Preview here: http://www.fcbayern.t-online.de/en/c...2f9b2ec9eb6706

This is a dangerous match: Hannover is probably stronger than last season; it's an away game for Munich; Munich's defense is not yet set, nor tested; and Munich's been distracted all week because of the Makaay transfer.

I'm willing to bet, however, that Makaay might come on for the last 20 min.--unless he's not allowed to play yet because of regulations.

Yes, Hanover held Bayern to a 2-2 draw last season in this fixture, and Hanover were 2-0 up. I wouldn't bet on anything for this match, as it could go any way.

I woke up at 6:30 to watch this display. Bayern Should have stayed home. Rau looks lost with any ball in the air and Stanjer is eating him alive. Deisler's crosses are consistently off the mark and Ollie looks two steps slow.

Bayern should bring on Maakay...

Hanover 96 3:3 Bayern Munich (3:1)

Nebojsa Krupnikovic 9" [1:0]
Jiri Stajner 27" [2:0]
Michael Ballack 39" [2:1]
Thomas Christiansen 43" [3:1]
Claudio Pizarro 49" [3:2]
Owen Hargreaves 90+1" [3:3]

An OK result for Bayern, especially after their first half display. Maakay didn't get to play though.
