Bayern Munich travel to Werder Bremen on Saturday as Hansi Flick's men look to consolidate their lead at the top of the Bundesliga.

Bayern Munich are currently two points clear at the top of the league. Flick knows that his side cannot afford to slip up at this crucial point in the season, but will be confident his team can come away with three points.

The Bavarians have won three games on the trot and will aim to extend their winning streak against Bremen on Saturday.

Werder Bremen are also on a run of good form. Florian Kohfeldt's side have only lost three of their last 14 games across all competitions and are currently on a three-game unbeaten streak.

Bremen are currently 12th in the Bundesliga, with a win on Saturday potentially taking them into the top half of the table, depending on other results.

This will by no means be a straightforward fixture for Flick's side, but Bayern Munich will need to come away from Werder Bremen with all three points.


Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich Head-to-Head

In the reverse fixture earlier this season, Florian Kohfeldt's men picked up their first point against Bayern Munich since 2010, as the clash ended in a 1-1 draw.
