After crashing out of the Champions League in midweek, Bayern will be looking to close out a poor season on a positive note. The Bavarians host Wolfsburg on Sunday and given their record at the Allianz Arena, will be confident of claiming the upper hand.
It has been a thoroughly disappointing campaign for Bayern Munich, who are set to end their season without a single piece of silverware. With the Bundesliga and DfB Pokal titles already gone, they crashed out of the Champions League after suffering a 2-1 semi-final defeat to Real Madrid on Wednesday.
The task for Bayern Munich will be to end their campaign on a positive note and especially close things out with a win at the Allianz Arena. Thomas Tuchel’s men have won six of their last seven home matches, keeping just two clean sheets in that run.
Wolfsburg appear to be finding their form as the season draws to a close having won their last three matches. They claimed a 3-0 victory over Darmstadt in their previous Bundesliga fixture with Patrick Wimmer, Jonas Wind and Vaclav Cerny on target.
While Wolfsburg's recent form has been good, their recent travels have been erratic. Ralph Hassenhuttl’s men have won just three matches from their last seven away matches but did win 2-1 at Freiburg in their previous fixture on the road.
How the bookies view it: Bavarians have the upper hand
Bayern Munich are considered overwhelming favourites among the bookies with a home win priced at 4/11 by bet365. A victory for Wolfsburg is valued at 13/2 while a draw is set at odds of 9/2.
Recent head to head: Bayern dominant in this fixture
Bayern Munich often come out on top in this fixture and are unbeaten in the last 19 meetings. The Bavarians have claimed 17 wins in that run, including a 2-1 victory in the reverse fixture back in December.
Players to watch: Kane to continue impressive campaign
In the midst of Bayern Munich’s struggles, Harry Kane has been outstanding, scoring 36 Bundesliga goals this season. The striker was also on target in the reverse fixture and is priced at 8/13 to find the net on Sunday by bet365.
Wolfsburg can also hold their own going forward and will look to Jonas Wind to provide the spark in attack. The Danish striker has 11 Bundesliga goals and is priced at 3/1 by bet365 to get on the score sheet on Sunday.
Probable line-ups
Raphael Guerrero and Kingsley Coman are ruled out for Bayern Munich, who could hand starts to Thomas Muller and Alphonso Davies. Wolfsburg have no new injury problems and could retain the team that won against Darmstadt last time out.
Bayern Munich: Neuer, Kimmich, Kim, Upamecano, Davies, Laimer, Goretzka, Sane, Musiala, Muller, Kane
Wolfsburg: Casteels, Paredes, Jenz, Lacroix, Maehle, Arnold, Gerhardt, Wimmer, Baku, Majer, Wind.
Anything else catch the eye? A perfect opportunity for attackers
Bayern Munich have seen over 3.5 goals in two of their last three Bundesliga matches and a repeat is priced at 10/11 by bet365. The Bavarians are priced at minimal odds for a straight victory, so a win and both teams to score could be considered at 11/8.
Kane has opened the scoring 12 times this season and could be backed to grab the first goal on Sunday at 13/5 with bet365.
