Vincent Kompany urges Bayern Munich sole focus on Frankfurt clash ahead of ‘Der Klassiker’

The Bavarians have had a perfect month of February, collecting victories against Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen in the league and a 2-0 win over RB Leipzig in a DFB Pokal quarter final.

Bayern currently top the Bundesliga table, six points ahead of second placed Borussia Dortmund, whom they face next week at Signal Iduna Park.

"You [the media] have the BVB game in mind, but we don't. I'm only focused on the Frankfurt game," said Kompany to reporters at the pre-match conference.

"We know the situation with suspensions due to yellow cards, but you can't plan everything. The only important thing is that we now win at home against Frankfurt.

"There's no hierarchy, every game is important. Starting next week, we can all enjoy that 'Klassiker' feeling together. But right now, it's all about Frankfurt. The suspensions are not an issue; we have to be smart, but you can't plan everything."

The defending Bundesliga champions are unbeaten in their last four league fixtures against Frankfurt, winning the first-round clash 3-0 but have since replaced German mentor Dino Toppmoller with Spaniard Albert Riera.

"We've just played Werder; they'd also had a change of coach. You have to plan with what you can see," added the Belgian manager.

"We've seen what Frankfurt have done in the last two games and what the coach has done with his previous teams. We have to be prepared to be flexible in the game. We have a lot of opportunities to be flexible in the games."
