Lineups:Previous information:

The spectacular curriculum of the Bavarian team, one of the most successful in Europe, is highly respected within the Andalusian club, but Sevilla has also earned a prestigious position on the continent, as evidenced by the fact that last August they won their sixth title of the Europa League by defeating in the final Inter de Milan or before in the semifinals to another of great history like United manchester.

Bayern and Sevilla they are even in the European Super Cup, which each has won once: the Spanish in 2006 against Barcelona (0-3), in the first of their five attempts so far; and the Germans against Chelsea in 2013, the last of the four times they played it.

The party arrives surrounded by the peculiarities obliged since last spring by the coronavirus pandemic, although Uefa has set this appointment as a test for the return of fans to stadiums and to study the impact on the so-called ‘Return to Game Protocol’ of this body.

Thus, the Puskas Arena, with a capacity that exceeds 60,000 seats, it will be open to thirty percent of its capacity and the Uefa provided each competing club 3,000 tickets, of which Sevilla have made use of half a thousand and the Bayern of about two thousand, all due to inconvenience and suspicion of travel and strict health protocols required.

On the sporting level, the Andalusian team reaches this Super Cup with just over two weeks of preseason, a period in which he has played three friendlies with atypical formats, one against Levante and two against Athetic Club.

He also had the sevillista coach, Julen lopetegui, the disadvantage of the positive for covid-19 of the forward Munir El Haddadi, who had to stay in quarantine and who has not joined the work of the group until last Sunday, so it is unlikely that he is in the best tone to measure the German team.

The Gipuzkoan coach can no longer count, compared to the squad that left such good feelings in the final stretch of last year both in The league -fourth classified tied with third- as in the Europa League -champion-, with the brain of the team, the Argentine Ever Banega, who went to soccer from Saudi Arabia.

Nor will the one who took ownership of the left back, Sergio Reguilón, who
He finished his stage on loan from Real Madrid and has now been transferred to English Tottenham.

On the other hand, a well-known Seville player like Iván has arrived from Barcelona Rakitic, who must alleviate the absence of Banega; as well as the Argentine international
Marcos Acuña, who covers the gap left by Reguilón.

Another reinforcement for this campaign is the playmaker Oscar Rodriguez, who arrived after two seasons on loan from Real Madrid at Leganés and who, in addition to his recent debut as an absolute international, has been very intoned in the preseason.

With them, Lopetegui could make some variations in his starting eleven against him Bayern, although it will not differ much from the one he constantly repeated in the last Europa League games last August.

It seems that Rakitic will be on the way out, but there are more doubts in Acuña, who joined the group last week, so Sergio Escudero would be on the left-handed side, while Óscar would await his opportunity from the bench.

Meanwhile, the Bayern comes to the duel for the Super Cup after his spectacular debut in the Bundesliga with a thunderous 8-0 win against Schalke, extending his winning streak to 22 in a row.

The treble of titles can become a quintuplet in two weeks, with the European Super Cup and the Super Cup German, which is one more reason for expectation for this duel in Budapest.

However, in the Bavarian environment there is a certain skepticism towards the two super cup commitments, the second will be against him Dortmund, which add more games to a season that will already be quite tight.

Furthermore, the situation of the coronavirus pandemic in the Hungarian capital has caused that the mere fact that the game is played sparks debates in Germany. Despite this, Bayern will seek the title and hopefully will play in Budapest with their best possible team.

Against Schalke, coach Hansi Flick had to dispense with Alphonso Davies and David Alaba due to muscular problems, although they have returned to training and are expected to be available, as well as Kingsley Coman, in quarantine due to a positive coronavirus in a person from your environment.

The scorer was also in the last training session Robert Lewandowski, who had paused as a precaution, but whose participation in the Super Cup, according to the club, has never been in danger.

Bayern have started the season with the aim of varying the style of play that they showed towards the end of the previous season. Flick has admitted that the permanent high pressure shown by Bayern from the quarterfinals of the Champions League is something that cannot be maintained throughout each game and that it is necessary to introduce phases of calm through possession. of the ball or also of retreating a little at times and looking for the counter-attack.

The game against Schalke was a kind of experiment for this variability and Bayern alternated moments of internal pressure with calmer phases and, also, with a couple of deadly counterattacks taking advantage of the speed of Serge Gnabry and Leroy Sané and the good eye of Joshua Kimmich to hit long and precise passes at the right time.

Probable lineups:

Bayern Munich: New; Pavard, Süle, Alaba, Davies; Kimmich, Goretzka; Sané, Müller, Gnabry; and Lewandowski.

Seville: Bond; Jesús Navas, Koundé, Diego Carlos, Escudero; Fernando, Joan Jordán; Ocampos, Rakitic, Suso; and De Jong.
