Hjulmand ahead of Bayern clash: "No team is unbeatable"

Fourteen games, fourteen victories – FC Bayern is marching through all competitions this season and currently seems like a machine. However, Bayer Leverkusen coach Kasper Hjulmand refuses to be intimidated by this. The Dane approaches the top match on Saturday evening (6:30 PM, live on Sky) at the Allianz Arena with great respect but also with great self-confidence.

At the press conference before the game , the 53-year-old made it clear that his team is not afraid of the record series of the German record champion: “Bayern is, of course, the best team in Germany and one of the best in Europe,” said Hjulmand. “But I never believe that a team is unbeatable. I never go into a game with that mindset. I have the belief that it is possible.”

Leverkusen has repeatedly proven in recent years that they can be dangerous to FC Bayern . This time, too, Hjulmand wants to focus on offense rather than defense: “We also have a very good team and, of course, we are going to Munich to play a great game and achieve a result,” emphasized the Dane.

With their strong possession rate and precise passing game, Leverkusen under Hjulmand is considered one of the strongest teams in the league – a style that should also work against FC Bayern . “We are a team with good possession, and we need to show that. We want to play our own game,” Hjulmand continued.

While FC Bayern , under Vincent Kompany, is on its way to the best season start in the club's history with offensive power and tactical discipline, Leverkusen aims to stop Munich's perfect series – and make a statement in the championship race themselves.

Hjulmand's message before the duel is clear: “No one is unbeatable – not even FC Bayern .”
