Both sides are just two points apart on the table. Both sides occupy the top two spots in the league. And both sides will be clashing this weekend in this heavyweight German Bundesliga clash.
Bayern Munich head into this game on the back of securing a draw against Atletico Madrid in the UCL. They’re not unbeaten in the league so far. However, since their 4-1 loss to Hoffenheim, they’ve not looked back since. They’ve been dominant in the league since, winning all their games, save for 1-1 against Werder Bremen.
In the other side of the ring in this Bundesliga battle, there’s a young RB Leipzig side. Like the Bavarians, they’ve only lost once in the league this season. And they head into this one with their morals high after that seven-goal thriller in Turkey.

There isn’t plenty of history between the two sides.
Both sides have only clashed 10 times in recent history. And those games have almost always ended with one result: a Bayern Munich win. Only once did RB Leipzig win a game against the Bavarians. The last two games between both sides ended in a draw. This could mean that the gap between both sides is quickly closing.
However, Flick’s Bayern Munich are no side to mess with. The 31 league goals they’ve scored this season makes them the most lethal side in the league by far. For context sake, only Dortmund and Union Berlin can boast of goal tallies that are close. And they’ve only scored 21 league goals.
