For Bayern, Coach Niko Kovac is expected to give a full debut to new loan signing Philippe Coutinho, who comes to the Bundesliga champs from the champion Spanish La Liga side, Barcelona. The 27-year-old Brazilian played about 30 minutes in the win over Schalke — but Kovac has hailed the Barcelona man as a “superstar,” as quoted by Bleacher Report.
“He’s likeable, calm and reserved. That’s what makes a superstar,” Kovac said on Friday. “He can do anything but he is still modest.”
Mainz 05 started the season in dire fashion, losing three games starting with a DFB-Pokal match to third-tier club FC Kaiserslautern, per Vavel. They face a difficult assignment as they search for their maiden point against the 29-time German champions.
