Should be an easy 3 points for Bayern, but if they perform like they did in the first-half against Hanover and Bochum play well you never know. Hopefully Roy Maakay can get on the score sheet.

You are creating some very decent traffic here, keep up the good work. A lot of questions
before the Bochum match.
Lizzarazu played v. Nurnberg. Is he ready to start?
I would like to see a Kovac-Demichelis central defense.
Will Deisler start again or has Sagnol done enough to indirectly displace him?
When will Kahn save the first shot of the season?

[Basti]

Ballack is out of the game with a calf injury and Lizarazu has been tipped to start the game
Still injured: Scholl, Santa Cruz and Zickler


I believe the line up will be:



------------------Elber------Makaay--------------

Ze Roberto----------Hargreaves------------Deisler

---------------------Jeremies--------------------

Lizarazu-------Linke------------Kuffour-----Brazzo

-----------------------Kahn----------------------

Most of you seem happy to leave Kovac on the bench. Forget about it ! He is the No 1 CD at the club until we see how good Demichelis is.

[Basti]

I think Kovac is good. I only said Kuffour would start the match as the Bayern homepage stated that he impressed during training

[aloisius]

OK, but how about dropping Linke? When is Demichelis going to be ready to play?

[Basti]

I think slowly he will be intergrated in the back with Linke dropped. Who knows maybe this weekend?

Maakay's competitive debut for Bayern today, and they're not doing bad at all.
