Fri Apr 04 19:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Bayern München Makes Changes for Augsburg Derby Amidst Injury Crisis
**Augsburg, Germany** – Bayern Munich faces FC Augsburg in the Bundesliga derby tonight with a significantly altered lineup due to a mounting injury crisis. Josip Stanisic and Joao Palhinha replace the injured Raphael Guerreiro and Leon Goretzka in the starting XI. Guerreiro and Goretzka will be on the bench, joined by 17-year-old midfielder Lennart Karl, who makes his first-team squad debut.
The reigning champions are missing six key players: Captain Manuel Neuer, Dayot Upamecano, Alphonso Davies, Hiroki Ito, Aleksandar Pavlovic, and Kingsley Coman are all sidelined due to injury. The absences leave Bayern with a depleted squad as they look to secure a crucial victory. The match is particularly significant following Jamal Musiala’s thigh injury sustained in Bayern’s previous encounter against Augsburg, ruling him out of their upcoming Champions League clash against Inter Milan. Sporting director Max Eberl confirmed the news, adding to Bayern’s woes.
