Bayern Munich, Recent FormBayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Freiburg. Their share of possession in that meeting was 62%, while racking up 20 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to Freiburg, who had 17 shots on goal with 6 on target.
Whilst Tuchel will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 12 goals conceded in the same period. At home this season, they have scored in 11 of their 12 home games and notched up 6 clean sheets.
They have had an excellent run of form at The Allianz Arena recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games. They will be very happy with their early form at home this season, winning 10 of their 12 league games.
On an individual basis, Harry Kane has been a major threat in front of goal all season having scored 27 goals in the league so far.
Mainz 05, Recent FormMainz 05 will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 1-1 result against B. M'gladbach last time out. They achieved 44% possession in that match and had 18 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against B. M'gladbach's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 5 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 8 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 20 of their 24 games.
An away win for Mainz 05 is just a distant memory, having not won on the road in 16 games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 1-3 win for Bayern Munich.
The Die Nullfünfer defence has struggled against Bayern in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 23 games. We have seen plenty of goals from FC Hollywood when they play at home against Mainz. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 13 goals, which is an average of 4.33 goals per game.
Mainz will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 6 times they've visited Bayern in the league and not won this away fixture at The Allianz Arena for 7 games in a row.
Kingsley Coman will be feeling confident of netting goals for Bayern in this one against Mainz with his scoring record of 4 goals in their last 5 meetings in the league.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel with Noël Aséko Nkili (Ankle), Sacha Boey (Hamstring), Kingsley Coman (Medial Collateral Ligament), Serge Gnabry (Lack of fitness), Noussair Mazraoui (Hamstring), Leroy Sané (Tendon) and Bouna Sarr (Cruciate ligament) all unavailable for selection, and Tarek Buchmann (Hamstring) out for the rest of the season.
Bo Henriksen has a number of injury concerns in his Mainz squad to contend with: Stefan Bell (Heart problems), Edimilson Fernandes (Ankle), Andreas Hanche-Olsen (Hamstring), Maxim Leitsch (Groin), Jessic Ngankam (Knee) and Nelson Weiper (Knee surgery)
