Franck Ribery has been named on the Bayern Munich bench for the Bundesliga clash with Hamburger SV at the Allianz Arena.

The French winger has missed the last few weeks of action with injury, but he is fit enough to start on the Bayern bench, while Rafinha returns from his own injury problems to earn a place in the starting lineup.

Pep Guardiola is still without the suspended Jerome Boateng, which means that Mehdi Benatia continues in the centre of defence as Bayern look to protect their eight-point advantage at the top of the table.

Hamburg boss Josef Zinnbauer makes two changes to his side as Slobodan Rajkovic and Nicolai Muller miss out for the visitors.

Ashton Gotz and Antonio Rudnevs are handed recalls as the visitors look to hand Bayern just their second league defeat of the season.

Bayern: Neuer, Benatia, Rafinha, Bernat, Götze, Müller, Alaba, Badstuber, Schweinsteiger, Lewandowski, Robben

Hamburger SV: Drobny, Marcos, Westermann, Djourou, Götz, van der Vaart, Diaz - Stieber, Jansen, Olic, Rudnevs
