THE PREDICTION
Bayern Munich can now call themselves world champions as well as European and German champions after adding the FIFA Club World Cup title to their collection last week. However, they have not come back from their trip to Qatar unscathed, with Serge Gnabry suffering an injury and Thomas Muller testing positive for coronavirus. Jerome Boateng and Leon Goretzka are also expected to miss out, so Hansi Flick’s side will not be at full strength here. Arminia Bielefeld are relatively rested in comparison after their fixture last weekend was postponed, so they will be hoping to take advantage of any tired legs among the hosts. Nevertheless, Bielefeld have won just once on their travels this season and have only managed five goals in their nine away league games. Bayern have won their last seven in all competitions, conceding just twice in the process, so the league leaders should have enough in the tank to find a way past the promoted side and keep the ball out of Manuel Neuer's net.
