It looks like this is a derby of the round, but in fact Bayern is a completely different dimension for all other teams in Bundesliga, and so is Wolfsburg, which is only good on paper, while the results show something else. The “Wolves” are struggling and are again in the lower part of the table, with just four points above the relegation zone. Bayern is convincingly first and their advantage is growing, because the Bavarians are in a new long series of victories and they are not giving up regardless of the difference. In addition, in the first part of the season, duel of these rivals in Munich ended with a score of 2-2.
Wolfsburg is above the relegation zone, but their results are still very modest and the survival struggle continues. In the previous eight rounds, Wolfsburg has celebrated only once, and it is no surprise that they were close to the relegation zone, and it is all spiced up with a defeat against Werder in the last round. Previously, they have only played a draw with Stuttgart and the problem is that these two teams are direct competitors and they had to win more than one point.
Among those two matches, they have also lost to Schalke in the Cup, which, considering all the aforementioned, was to be expected. Coach Schmidt decided for some very interesting changes in Bremen, so Origi was not at the top of the attack, but Osimeen, while Brekalo replaced Steffen. Tisseranda was absent on the left back because of injury, and we now expect a return of Steffen and Origi.
Probable lineups VfL Wolfsburg: Casteels – Verhaegh, Bruma, Knoche, William – Guilavogui, Arnold – Steffen, Malli, Mehmedi – Origi
As if Bayern has decided to break down some records this season, so this team despite the enormous point advantage is not giving up and they are recording victory after a victory. They have made nine consecutive triumphs in the championship, and there are also two victories in the Cup, where they have reached the semi-finals. It was expected that they would play at full strength in this competition because they did not have a chance for correction but they had easy opponent in the quarter-finals, so Paderborn was mastered with 6-0. They are winning in the championship with some problems and it is interesting that they were celebrating easier away than on their field lately, where they in the previous three duels receiving goals.
Hoffenheim and Werder have even scored two goals and it seemed they could surprise them, and Schalke in the last round had 1-1 for a short period of time. T.Muller appeared as the decision player after a long time, who first assisted and then scored for the final 2-1. Compared to the Cup, J.Boateng returned to the center-back and Ribery played in midfield. Since they will have a duel in the Champions League soon, there may be a lot of changes now, with the proviso that Vidal cannot play due to yellow cards.
Probable lineups Bayern Munich: Ulreich – Rafinha, J.Boateng, Sule, J.Bernat – Rudy – Tolisso, Alcantara, Robben, Coman – Wagner
Wolfsburg mostly plays badly but they occasionally make a pleasant surprise, and we expect this edition from the “Wolves” now because they need points much more than Bayern, which is in a different composition and thinking about the Champions League.
