Elversberg are enjoying their debut campaign in the German top flight after finishing second in the 2. Bundesliga last season with 62 points. Vincent Wagner’s side have made a flying start, winning both of their opening fixtures to sit fourth on six points. The Saarland club defeated Bayer Leverkusen 3-2 on 29 August thanks to goals from Lukas Petkov, Cole Campbell and David Mokwa, then came from 3-1 down to win 4-3 at Mönchengladbach on 5 September, with Maurice Krattenmacher scoring twice. With seven goals, Elversberg boast the league’s most potent attack. Krattenmacher will face his former club: the 20-year-old winger left Bayern for Elversberg in June.

Bayern Munich, meanwhile, have four points and sit sixth, two points behind their hosts. Vincent Kompany’s men opened their season with a 5-1 win over Stuttgart, featuring a Michael Olise brace, before being held to a 0-0 draw at Schalke 04, a result that ended a run of 59 consecutive competitive matches with at least one goal scored. The Bavarians bounced back on Thursday in the Champions League with a 5-0 victory over Bodø/Glimt, with goals from Jamal Musiala, Harry Kane, Alphonso Davies and Michael Olise. German champions last season with 89 points, they signed Nathaniel Brown and Ismael Saibari this summer.
