- Venue: Allianz Arena
An intriguing encounter takes place in Germany on Sunday afternoon as Bayern Munich takes on an in-form Hoffenheim.
Bayern return to the Allianz Arena after a surprise draw against HSV last weekend while Hoffeheim make the trip to Munich following an impressive 3:1 win against Union Berlin.
The Bundesliga leaders have a predictably dominant record in this fixture, but will be wary of the threat posed by an improved Hoffenheim side.

Bayern Munich team overview
Bayern Munich return to Munich after an entertaining 2:2 draw against Hamburg last weekend. Harry Kane took his tally for the season to 36 goals as the Bavarians were forced to settle for a point at Volksparkstadion.
Having built-up a seemingly insurmountable advantage at the summit of the Bundesliga, Bayern now find themselves only six points ahead of Borussia Dortmund, and just nine clear of Hoffenheim. Vincent Kompany's side had dropped just four points in their first 18 games of the season.
High-scoring outcomes have been remarkably frequent for Bayern this season. The Bundesliga champions have seen at least three goals scored in all but one 33 games played since August.
Head coach Kompany has a few selection issues this weekend. Raphaël Guerreiro and Konrad Laimer are doubtful, while Harry Kane will be assessed due to illness.

Hoffenheim team overview
Hoffenheim make the trip to Munich with plenty of confidence after an excellent 3:1 win against Union Berlin last weekend. Andrej Kramarić bagged two goals before half-time as Christian Ilzer's side maintained their superb recent form.
Die Kraichgauer have now picked up victories in each of their last five games, while they have lost just one of their last 15 competitive fixtures (excluding penalty shootouts).
A return to the attack-minded football that made the club famous in the past decade has seen the visitors score 14 goals in their five most recent Bundesliga contests.
Head coach Ilzer has four selection issues to deal with this weekend. Wouter Burger is suspended, Adam Hložek and Cole Campbell are ruled out, while Koki Machida is also unavailable.

Prediction
Goals are usually on the cards when Bayern and Hoffenheim go head-to-head and with the visitors in such fine form, another high-scoring encounter seems likely this weekend.
Over 2.5 Goals is my best bet with both teams likely to score on Sunday.
Three Reasons Why We Expect Over 2.5 Goals
- Bayern Munich have seen over 2.5 goals in 14 of their last 17 matches against Hoffenheim
- Hoffenheim have seen over 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 5 matches
- Bayern Munich have seen over 2.5 goals in 32 of their last 33 matches
