Don’t feel sorry for Bayern, they are ready for Liverpool - Matthaus

An iconic figure from the Munich club's past believes the Bundesliga champions are finding form at the right time ahead of a testing trip to Anfield

Lothar Matthaus has warned Liverpool and the rest of Europe “not to feel sorry or afraid for Bayern Munich” as they are showing signs of progress under Niko Kovac.

The 2018-19 campaign has been a slow burner for the German giants, as they rather stumbled out of the blocks under the guidance of a new coach.

Kovac knows all about life at Bayern from his playing days, but it took a while for him to find his feet in the dugout and deliver the consistency expected from the Bundesliga title holders.
