THE LOWDOWN
TROPHYLESS BAYERN WITHOUT KEY STARS
It was heartbreak for Bayern Munich in the Champions League in midweek. Despite taking the lead against Real Madrid in Spain, the hosts mounted a dramatic late comeback to turn things around and win 2-1. A Manuel Neuer error leading to an equaliser from Joselu, who went on to score a winner. Although Bayern have cause to be upset after a legitimate goal was ruled out for offside with the whistle having been blown before the ball hit the net.
Thomas Tuchel in his final home fixture as Bayern head coach is without a number of key stars. Harry Kane, Leroy Sane and Jamal Musiala are all out, as is Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry. Therefore, expect starts for the likes of Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Mathys Tel.
WOLFSBURG HUNTING FOR FOUR IN-A-ROW
Wolfsburg boast the luxury of not having anything to play for other than position and pride following an excellent recent run which has seen them successfully secure safety with two games to spare. Three consecutive wins leaves them seven points above the bottom three heading into this one.
Their most recent triumph was the biggest of the three, beating rock-bottom Darmstadt by three goals to nil. It was the perfect follow-up to victories against both Bochum and Freiburg, the latter coming away from home.

THE PREDICTION
For Bayern Munich to pick themselves up after exiting Europe won’t be easy, but being at home is likely to help them. However, Wolfsburg’s form simply cannot be ignored and they’ll be sensing the chance to get the jump on a potentially demoralised Bayern. We could see an entertaining contest here and backing over 2.5 goals scored is well worth considering, regardless of the final outcome.
TIP: OVER 2.5 GOALS
