Bayern Munich face a must win game this weekend when they welcome league leaders Bayer Leverkusen in their next Bundesliga match on Sunday.
The German giants have had an inconsistent start to the season and though they are unbeaten in their last five matches, they have managed to win just two games in the process. Pressure is steadily building on coach Louis Van Gaal and with Bayern struggling to qualify out of their Champions League group stage, the Dutch coach could find himself out of job pretty soon if he is not able to turn Bayern's form around.
Leverkusen on the other hand are off to an excellent start and find themselves three points clear at the top of the table. Having finished in a disappointing 9th place last season, coach Jupp Heynckes will be delighted with his side's performances so far this season and will be optimistic that they can secure a vital win over Bayern this weekend.
Leverkusen will be looking to avenge their twin defeats in the league last season. Though the club managed to beat Bayern 4-2 in the German Cup, the Bavarian club collected maximum points from the two league encounters which included a 3-0 win in this fixture.
