Team News

Bayern
Werder Bremen
  • Hiroki Ito is recovering from further surgery on a broken foot, while Daniel Peretz has sustained a bruised kidney in training.
  • Alphonso Davies is struggling with a muscle injury.
  • Jens Stage is available after suspension, but defenders Niklas Stark and former Bayern man Marco Friedl are both on the naughty step after their late dismissals last Friday.
  • Keke Topp has an ankle injury and Felix Agu is struggling with a knee niggle. Justin Njinmah has a niggly ankle injury, Leonardo Bittencourt has a thigh problem, while Anthony Jung went off with a knock last Friday

Prediction

  • Bayern, the highest scorers, have scored five goals in a Bundesliga game five times this season, but will have one eye on their Champions League playoff against Celtic in midweek.
  • Four-time Bundesliga champions Bremen have won five times on their travels, but picked up a first win in five games last Friday.
  • The record German champions have scored in their last 27 Bundesliga games, last failing to find the net in a 2-0 defeat to Dortmund in March.
  • Bremen approach a second straight Friday evening fixture under the floodlights and will take confidence from their win last season in Munich against Thomas Tuchel's Bayern.
  • That said, Bayern romped the reverse fixture 5-0 in Bremen so anything other than a comfortable win for the league leaders would be a huge surprise.
