Coach Julian Nagelsmann wants FC Bayern to lead the table in the Bundesliga on Saturday (3:30 p.m., Sky) with an anniversary victory. The 34-year-old can celebrate his 100th victory in the Bundesliga against FSV Mainz 05. “I hope that we will win because of this anniversary too,” said Nagelsmann. Munich lead the table by four points. In the event of their own success and a Dortmund defeat at VfL Bochum, Munich would be early autumn champions. FC Bayern has to do without Joshua Kimmich after his corona infection and the ailing Leon Goretzka.
