Bayern duo struggling with illness ahead of Bremen clash | OneFootball

Bayern Munich's injury problems are starting to clear up, with Alphonso Davies the only confirmed major absentee for Friday's Bundesliga clash with Werder Bremen.

However, two Bayern players are battling minor colds ahead of the game, head coach Vincent Kompany revealed at his pre-match press conference. But he wouldn't say who.

“It's looking good. I hope the question of why someone isn't playing will come up more often. That'll mean we have a full squad. We now have a large, fit squad in training. I'm looking forward to the games because the guys are in good form," Kompany told reporters.

"Apart from Alphonso Davies, we don't have any major absentees. We have two players with minor colds, we still have to wait and see there. Basically, the squad is fit. Leon Goretzka is back.”

Friday's game will be followed by the first leg of Bayern's Champions League knockout play-off against Celtic on Wednesday.

Asked if he sees Bremen as a dress rehearsal for the Celtic game, he replied:

"They're certainly different in terms of their setup. We're only focused on Bremen. We can only win one game tomorrow, against Bremen. That has absolute priority. They're very good away from home. There are no easy games in the Bundesliga."
