Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how RB Leipzig could line up for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Bayern Munich.

Jesse Marsch is expected to name the same starting lineup for the third successive Bundesliga game when his RB Leipzig side face German giants Bayern Munich on Saturday evening.

Die Roten Bullen will still be without left-backs Angelino and Marcelo Saracchi, so Croatian teenager Josko Gvardiol is set to continue in this position.

After representing Hungary during this month's international break, experienced goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi, centre-back Willi Orban and attacking midfield Dominik Szoboszlai are all expected to start once again.

In midfield, Amadou Haidara and Tyler Adams will likely retain their places in the middle of the pitch, though 18-year-old deadline day signing Ilaix Moriba – who joined on a permanent deal from Barcelona – will be hoping he can make his debut this weekend.

Following the departure of Marcel Sabitzer to Bayern Munich – who could make his debut against his former side – Emil Forsberg now has less competition for the number 10 role and so the Swede will likely start again on Saturday.

Striker Andre Silva – who has scored 41 goals in his last 60 Bundesliga appearances, including 28 strikes last season for Eintracht Frankfurt – is set to lead the line in attack ahead of Yussuf Poulsen and Brian Brobbey.

RB Leipzig possible starting lineup: Gulacsi; Klostermann, Orban, Simakan, Gvardiol; Adams, Haidara; Szoboszlai, Forsberg, Nkunku; Silva
