Bayern Munich are taking no chances as they meet FC Drochtersen/Assel in the first round of the DFB Pokal.
Nico Kovač has named a full strength team against the fourth tier side.
Rafinha takes the place of David Alaba, who was injured in last weekend’s 5-0 Supercup defeat of Eintracht Frankfurt.
There is also a return for Jérôme Boateng, who replaces Niklas Süle in defence.
The team is otherwise unchanged, suggesting Kovač will field a similar 11 in Bayern’s Bundesliga opener on Friday.
