A fascinating Oberliga - Bayern Süd chapter awaits on September 12, 2026 when Kirchanschöring take on 1860 München II at the home ground — two sides with plenty to play for and everything to prove. K-League All-Stars v Manchester City: Confirmed line-ups as Maresca’s men face Korean test.

Kirchanschöring head into the contest positioned 12th in the Oberliga - Bayern Süd standings, while 1860 München II arrive sitting 10th. The hosts will be looking to find their rhythm and put a run of results together. The visitors will travel in the hope that a change of scene can spark a turnaround, whatever the form book says. One position every Premier League club still needs to strengthen in before the transfer window closes.

Pressing intensity will define the contest. Kirchanschöring will seek to win the ball high up the pitch and suffocate 1860 München II's build-up, while the visitors will aim to play through the pressure and exploit the spaces it leaves behind. Man Utd are pushing higher and working harder to press and counter-press the opposition, especially to win the ball back quickly after a loss of possession.

Neither side is short on individuals capable of tilting the balance, and the duel between the two squads' chief creators could prove particularly pivotal. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena. One of McInnes' decisions will likely be who starts up front in the absence of captain Lawrence Shankland and fellow striker Youssef Chermiti.

Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. The numbers tilt towards 1860 München II, and a 1-2 away win looks the more probable outcome. More than just three points is on the line at the home ground — this is a fixture that could shape the narrative of both clubs' seasons. Joe Gomez is expected to miss the start of Liverpool's Premier League campaign through injury - but it is not likely to impact the Reds' transfer plans.
