The translation of the heading to English is: "Kompany relies on the depth of his squad ahead of the encounter with Union Berlin.

Bayern Munich's coach Vincent Kompany will decide on Saturday whether defenders Eric Dier and Dayot Upamecano will be ready for the home match against Union Berlin. Both are currently dealing with injuries. Dier was injured in the recent 4-0 cup victory against Mainz 05, while Upamecano was sidelined with a thigh injury. Bayern Munich's squad is already diminished by the long-term absence of Hiroki Ito, Sacha Boey, and Josip Stanisic. Nevertheless, Kompany remains optimistic: "It's unfortunate when players are unavailable. But I have 18 fit players to choose from," he stated in a press conference. Bayern tops the Bundesliga with 20 points, level with RB Leipzig, but with a better goal difference. Kompany emphasizes his confidence in his team: "I hope Dier and Upamecano are fit. If not, I will continue to rely on the others." Union Berlin, currently in fourth place in the standings, will not be an easy challenge. The Berliners have lost only once this season. Nonetheless, Kompany remains confident: "We know they are strong defensively. But ultimately, it is a home game for us.
