Vincent Kompany ready to take on challenge from Schalke 04

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany seems ready to get right back at it after the teams 4-1 victory over VfL Osnabrück in the DFB-Pokal earlier this week.

The Bavarians will travel to Gelsenkirchen for a match-up with Bundesliga returnee Schalke and Kompany is eager to see his team hit the pitch.

"I've played there a few times with City and HSV. It's an arena that we, and I, know well. We're considered favorites for tomorrow, but we shouldn't believe that. It always starts from scratch. A good performance against Osnabrück and Stuttgart doesn't automatically guarantee success against Schalke. Their anticipation for the first Bundesliga home game after three years is immense. They shouldn't be hungrier than us tomorrow," Kompany said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ).

Bayern Munich is still working out some kinks, but will enter the match as a prohibitive favorite against Die Königsblauen . The head coach will be sorting through how to best align his squad for the game as the squad's depth will make it easier for him to rotate players.

Who do you think will get the nod for Kompany?
