Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of Bayern Munich’s Bundesliga clash with Borussia Monchengladbach from the Allianz Arena. Bayern could have been set to claim their 30th league title and their 29th in the Bundesliga era if they were to win this match AND Dortmund were to lose lose at Fortuna Dusseldorf, but it was not meant to be, with Dortmund snatching that last-gasp winner just moments ago. Gladbach lost 1-0 at SC Freiburg in the most recent matchround but have not lost consecutive Bundesliga fixtures since April 2019.

KICK OFF! We are under way in the Allianz Arena.
17:28
So here we go. A much-changed Bayern will give Gladbach hope, but this is a Bayern team who simply cannot stop winning since the return of the Bundesliga. Can they overcome the odds and do the double over the champions? We are minutes away!
17:26
Here is how Gladbach got the better of Bayern last time out. Surely they cannot repeat such a feat today?
17:17
It is only really a matter of when, not if Bayern will claim an eighth straight Bundesliga title. No other team has won more than five Bundesliga titles in total - Dortmund and Gladbach both have won five. Also, Bayern can become the second team in one of Europe's top five leagues to win eight consecutive domestic top flight titles, after Juventus in Serie A from 2011/12 to 2018/19. Juve are still on course for their ninth successive Serie A title this season.
17:10
A long-awaited debut...
17:05
Ahead of kick off catch up with the latest transfer talk from across Europe as N'Golo Kante's future remains uncertain.

HEAD TO HEAD: Bayern are one short of becoming the first club to record 50 Bundesliga wins against Gladbach. However, Gladbach have won three of their last five Bundesliga matches versus Bayern (W3-D0-L2), but both defeats in that run were by a 5-1 scoreline. In the reverse Bundesliga match this campaign, Gladbach defeated Bayern 2-1 at Borussia-Park on courtesy of two goals by Rami Bensebaini.

NO LEWA, BUT GNABRY FIT TO START: With Robert Lewandowski suspended, 19-year-old Joshua Zirkzee gets the nod up front for Bayern and will lead the line flanked by Serge Gnabry, who has recovered from a knee injury to take his place in the starting XI. Thomas Muller is also suspended, while Kingsley Coman and Alphonso Davies drop to the bench. Lucas Hernandez, Mickael Cuisance and Ivan Perisic come in. Marcus Thuram will again lead the line for Gladbach, who are without the suspended Alassane Plea.
