Bayern Munich will fancy their chances of returning to winning ways this weekend as they take on Hertha Berlin at home. The capital club looks doomed to be relegated, and Bayern will be desperate for an uplift in mood after failing to win their last four games.
Werder Bremen could cause a few problems to Bayern, but this is another game that Thomas Tuchel’s side will fancy their chances in despite their recent woes.
Bayern Munich will then be at home to Schalke 04, and Borussia Dortmund will be hoping for a favour from their arch-rivals who are battling to avoid relegation from the Bundesliga.
The Bavarians’ toughest test will come on May 20 when they square off against RB Leipzig at home. Marco Rose’s side are currently in the fight to qualify for next season’s UEFA Champions League. And this is a game that could potentially make or break Bayern’s hopes of winning the Bundesliga title. The two sides played out a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture.
Bayern will end their campaign away to FC Köln, where they will hope to pip Borussia Dortmund and win the Bundesliga title for the 11th season running.
