Bayern Munich have played already three matches under the rule of Jupp Heynckes, having won all of them with 9:0 aggregated score while the Munches’ streak without conceded goals has reached 304 minutes of football. Bayern Munich’s furious play together with the rivals’ failures allowed the club to share the first-second positions in the German elite division standings with Borussia Dortmund, having picked up 20 points with 22-7 goal difference in nine encounters. Bayern Munich entered the DFB Pokal with 5:0 victory over Chemnitzer. “Stern des Sudens” recorded four wins, single draw and two losses in seven clashes on the road.
RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich have met only twice in their history. Last season the Munches won both head-to-heads with 3:0 and 5:4 scorelines. The upcoming visitors are the favourites of the Cup battle as well, however, “Die Roten Bullen” are surely to give a tough fight to the favourites.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score.
