Bayern Munich has been hit by a spate of injuries in recent weeks ,which has left Vincent Kompany having to get creative with his team selections.

Thankfully for the Belgian coach, he has received some good news ahead of the weekend's huge Bundesliga clash with Borussia Dortmund.

It has been reported by Kicker that Serbian midfielder Aleksandar Pavlovic will be fit enough to feature in Der Klassiker on Saturday evening, which gives Kompany another much-needed option in the middle.

The news is not quite so positive for goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who is still a doubt for that match and the Champions League return leg against Inter next week. That means Jonas Urbig is expected to continue his run in the team.

The other good news for Bayern is that French defender Dayot Upamecano is back on the training pitch after his knee surgery, which hints at a faster return than was initially expected.
