Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany confirmed midfielder Jamal Musiala was set to make his return after a six-month injury absence in Saturday's Bundesliga match at RB Leipzig. Speaking on Friday, Kompany said Musiala would be included in the squad "if everything goes well today in training". Bayern could also welcome back Germany captain Joshua Kimmich and Canada captain Alphonso Davies from injury. Chelsea junior Musiala joined Bayern in 2019 and has scored 64 goals and laid on 39 assists in 207 matches while winning five Bundesliga titles and the Champions League. With half of the season played, unbeaten Bayern hold a 11-point lead over second-placed Borussia Dortmund atop the table, the equal-best mark in Bundesliga history.
