St Pauli preview: Struggling St Pauli
In what has been a difficult second successive season back in the German top-flight, St Pauli have been much steadier in this calendar year, having leapfrogged Wolfsburg in the relegation battle, currently sitting in the end of season playoff place.
The home team returned from the March international break with a 1-1 draw against Union Berlin in the capital city last weekend with Mathias Pereira Lage’s opener being cancelled out by Andrija Ilic in the second-half.
Bayern Munich preview: Brilliant Bavarians
Bayern Munich come into this one on the back of an impressive 2-1 defeat of Real Madrid in the first-leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final tie at the Bernabeu in a game that Bayern really should have racked up more of a score with.
The visitors head into the final six games of the Bundesliga campaign sitting nine points clear of Borussia Dortmund after a dramatic 3-2 win away at Freiburg last weekend, having been 2-0 down late on in Baden-Wurttemberg.

St Pauli vs Bayern Munich prediction
St Pauli are seeking to haul in the likes of Werder Bremen and Cologne in the final few weeks of the season. They have been much more difficult to play against of late. They do, though, now face a Bayern side that, even if they are heavily rotated ahead of their second-leg with Madrid, are rampant, having scored 100 goals in 28 Bundesliga matches, and a comfortable away win is to be expected.
