Bayern Munich will be looking to go top of the German Bundesliga table when they visit the Mewa Arena to take on Mainz 05 on Saturday.
Bo Svensson’s men are currently on a seven-match winless run and will head into the weekend aiming to end that dry spell.
Mainz were left with the bitter aftertaste of “what might have been” last time out as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Borussia Monchengladbach after surrendering their 88th-minute lead.
With this result, Svensson’s side are still waiting for their first win of the 2023-24 Bundesliga campaign, having drawn two and lost five of their seven matches so far.
With just two points from a possible 21, Mainz are currently bottom of the league table, just one point above bottom-placed Cologne.
In contrast, Bayern Munich continued their rise to the top of the table, cruising to a 3-0 victory over Freiburg just before the international break.
Thomas Tuchel’s men are one of just three unbeaten Bundesliga sides this season, with five wins and two draws in their opening seven games.
Bayern, who are on a 10-game unbeaten run in all competitions, are second in the league table, two points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
