- FC Bayern disputes the general examination in Unterhaching
FC Bayern will have its dress rehearsal before the start of competitive matches on Tuesday (6:00 PM) against WSG Tirol. The German football record champions will face the Austrian Bundesliga team from Wattens at the Sportpark Unterhaching. Afterwards, the team coached by Vincent Kompany will be challenged in the first round of the DFB-Pokal against second division newcomers SSV Ulm on Friday.
Last season, Bayern, still under Thomas Tuchel, embarrassed themselves by failing in the second round against 1. FC Saarbrücken. Munich will then kick off the new Bundesliga season on August 25th against VfL Wolfsburg.
During the preparations, FC Bayern has announced a compulsory start for their players in the dress rehearsal against WSG Tirol. Following this friendly match, the compulsory start rule will not apply in the DFB-Pokal first round against SSV Ulm.
