The Bavarians have won seven of their nine games, and have won their last two coming into this fixture in the capital. They have scored nine goals in their last two games, and a staggering 33 in the games that they have played throughout the season in the Bundesliga.
Their most recent four goals came in a 4-0 hammering of Hoffenheim on Saturday. Robert Lewandowski once again got his name on the scoresheet in the comprehensive win, while Serge Gnabry, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Kingsley Coman also scored.
