Bayern Munich are coming from a tough clash away in Spain where they had to dig deep for a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid and will be hoping to return to winning ways at home to Leipzig in the Bundesliga. This is a top of the table clash, with two points separating the sides; Bayern top with 22 points and Leipzig second on 20 points. The draw with Atletico was the second time in 14 matches that Bayern have failed to win, and they have no clean sheet in their last eight matches. However, they have compensated for that with a fine scoring run, hitting the back of the net in each of their last 15 matches and scoring two or more goals in 12 of their last 14 matches. They needed a late Thomas Muller penalty goal to secure a point away in Spain in the Champions League and will hope for an easier game at home to their fellow title contenders. Heading to this game, Bayern have seven wins in the nine league matches played this season but have trailed in the last three, though recovered and won two of them. Still in the Bundesliga, they are unbeaten in 14 home matches, winning 12 of those and keeping seven clean sheets. A great threat Bayern holds in all their matches is in attack; they have scored 21 goals in their last five home matches in the league, and conceded five. They will be happy with their run against Leipzig heading to this game, as they are unbeaten in the last five meetings, though three of the last four have ended in draws.

Leipzig on the other hand, have two straight wins ahead of this clash and three in the last five matches. They also had a tough midweek outing, in Turkey, needing to give their all for a 4-3 win over Istanbul Basaksehir. Heading to this game, Leipzig have one clean sheet in nine matches and have lost three of their last eight games. They have scored two or more goals in six of their last 10 matches while both sides have scored in five of their last 10 matches. In the nine league games this season, Leipzig have three clean sheets and have lost just two of their last 15 league matches. When playing away from home, they are not the best side to bank on, as in the last five away games, Leipzig have three losses and just one win. They have conceded 11 goals in their last five away matches and in the Bundesliga, they have one win in four away matches. In attack, they have also been goal shy in away matches in the league; they have scored more than once in just one of the last four away matches in Bundesliga.
