THE PREDICTION

A 2-3 defeat at home to Koln made it six straight losses for Wolfsburg in all competitions ahead of their trip to league leaders Bayern Munich. Most worrying from the visitors’ point of view will be the recent performances of their backline, who can’t stop shipping goals. Wolfsburg have conceded three times in four of those most recent six defeats and against a Bayern Munich side notorious for the quality they possess going forward, this does not bode well. No doubt Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski will be licking his lips at the prospect of facing the side whom he has previously scored five goals against in a single fixture and a home victory by at least two clear goals is expected here.
