But the Bavarian defence struggles
At one end Bayern Munich put the hosts to the sword, however, it is at the other that Bayern seemed to struggle on occasion on Saturday. With Medhi Benatia injured and Dante sold, Guardiola has been forced to play David Alaba alongside Jerome Boateng and Juan Bernat played at left-back. This setup was almost punished at times against Olympiacos in the Champions’ League and was similarly called into question against Darmstadt. Bernat was often caught out of position on the left and Alaba and Boateng were lucky to get away with a moment of miscommunication when Stroh-Engel’s 23rd minute effort was stopped by Manuel Neuer. It is an area of weakness that Wolfsburg surely will be looking to exploit.
