According to Kicker, Juranovic will be absent due to an infection when Union Berlin plays away against Bayern Munich, and captain Trimmel is expected to start.

Juranovic has suffered several injuries in recent years. Last season he played only 11 league matches for Union Berlin due to injury and missed several matches in the 2024/25 season as well.

This season, the 1.73-meter Croatian fullback has played all four league and cup matches. He is skilled at set pieces and has played both left-back and right-back for Union Berlin. The club confirmed on Wednesday in the pre-match press conference that Juranovic will miss the away fixture against Bayern Munich. Nsoki, Friedrich, and two forwards, Andrej Ilić and Burke, are also unavailable. Juranovic's absence this time is not due to injury; the official reason given is illness.

With Juranovic out, Trimmel is expected to start in Munich. The 39-year-old Trimmel has played for Union Berlin since 2014 and is the team's official captain, enjoying great popularity with the fans. Since the start of this season, he has been Juranovic's backup, coming on as a substitute in the first round of the DFB-Pokal, a 4-2 win against Eintracht Braunschweig, and in the second league match, a 0-4 loss to Bayer Leverkusen. In this match, he is expected to make his first league start of the season.

Union Berlin coach Lustrinelli said: "We have several options, and Trimmel is certainly one of them; he can start." Danish player Robert Skov is also a candidate, and Haberer has previously played as right-back and on the wing as well.

Imeri could also be included in the squad for the first time. The Swiss midfielder joined Union Berlin from Young Boys on September 1 and had previously reduced training due to physical issues.
