Heidenheim lead Bayern!

This is nuts! Heidenheim were 2-0 down at the break - now they're 3-2 up! The hosts attack up the right with Traoré. Pieringer takes it on and curls a cross towards the back post, where Kleindienst sends a confident first-time finish past Ulreich.

Changes

Musiala's been quiet by his standards. Choupo-Moting's on for the final 14 minutes or so. Beste also makes way, with Denis Thomalla his replacement.

Roof the net!

So close from Beste, whose wicked free-kick sails narrowly over Ulreich's crossbar.

Clawed away!

Sessa meets a Beste corner. His header's sneaking in at the near post, before Ulreich throws out a right hand to make the stop.

Wide!

Kane lashes across goal from just inside the Heidenheim area. He's annoyed he didn't at least hit the target.

Nobody home!

Musiala dances free, but his cross sails across the six-yard box and out of play.

Tuchel booked

Bayern's head coach is raging on the sidelines. He's not happy with a decision to award a free-kick against his side.

A fraction!

Kane can't connect with a cross from the right. Gnabry is at full stretch at the back post, but can't make contact, either.

Kane denied!

Müller free Kane, but his shot is beaten away by Kevin Müller in the Heidenheim goal. What a game this is turning into!

Heidenheim are level!

Incredible scenes in Heidenheim as the hosts peg back Bayern! Beste asks the question with a trademark cross into the danger zone, and Kleindienst applies the finish. Bayern's defence were asleep. Just 86 seconds between those two goals!

Bayern with a deserved lead at the break, thanks to those late Kane and Gnabry efforts. They had to be patient, but there's been a clear gulf in quality.

Kane quiet

This season's 31-goal top scorer had an effort ruled out against Dortmund, but was otherwise pretty quiet. He's yet to affect the game here.

Warning shot

Heidenheim win a corner that's cleared only as far as Föhrenbach on the edge of the Bayern area. He takes aim, but Kim makes a crucial block in front of Ulreich. The hosts do love a set piece - that might be their best bet today.

Close!

Heidenheim surrender possession in their own half. Gnabry fashions space on the left-hand side, before sending over a cross that's got just too much on it for the unmarked Müller at the far post.

Bayern push

A good spell of possession ends with Goretzka having a long-range shot blocked. It felt like all the white shirts were lining up to have a pop, but Heidenheim had nearly everyone back behind the ball.

Müller milestone

It's 700 up for Thomas Müller today. Only Sepp Maier (707) has made more appearances for the record champions than the great Mr. Bayern.

Happy days in Heidenheim

Heidenheim's form has dipped in 2024, but they're still on course for a second season of Bundesliga football. This is only the club's 28th Bundesliga fixture, compared to Bayern's 2,004th!

Defensive switch

Dier drops to he bench after a run of five straight Bundesliga starts. Bayern conceded eight goals in that time. They conceded nine across the previous five league matches that he played in (three starts, two sub appearances).

More on those teams

Lennard Maloney is back in the Heidenheim starting line-up, with the unwell Norman Theuerkauf making way. Adrian Beck, meanwhile, is preferred to Marvin Pieringer. As for Bayern, Tuchel makes three changes to the Klassiker defeat to Dortmund. Minjae Kim and Dayot Upamecano replace Edric Dier and Matthijs de Ligt at centre-back. Serge Gnabry also comes in for the injured Leroy Sané. Manuel Neuer and Kingsley Coman are among the absentees.

Record chaser

The title may be slipping from Bayern's grasp, but Harry Kane is not only keen on clinching the coveted Torjägerkanone - he also has his sights on yet another record, and a few more goals in Heidenheim today would help him edge closer to Robert Lewandowski's single-season record of 41 goals.

Tuchel on Heidenheim

"We'll see a classic David vs. Goliath clash in an emotional stadium that supports the home team. We can't press the script button, we're not taking responsibility away from anyone. We have a score to settle with ourselves [after last weekend's defeat against Dortmund]. For us it's about reaching our level every week."
camera-photo

Schmidt on Bayern

"It's not only about defending [against them], doing just that, you can still rack up the goals conceded. [In the reverse fixture at the Allianz Arena - which Bayern won 4-2] after we fought back to 2-2, we became euphoric, which still annoys me. Thank God we have developed since then.”

Unstoppable Müller

If he gets in on the action this weekend, Thomas Müller will bring his Bayern appearance tally up to an incredible 700 games. Only Sepp Maier is ahead of Müller on Bayern's all-time appearance list, the goalkeeper racking up 709 games at the Bavarian giants.

Heidenheim's reason to cheer

The 11th-placed Heidenheim may have won only one of their 11 Bundesliga games in 2024 (in Bremen), but Saturday's hosts have lost fewer games (three) than Bayern (four) in the top tier this year!

King Kane wants crown

With 31 goals in his 26 Bundesliga appearances this season, Harry Kane appears on course to win the Torjägerkanone top-scorer's prize this term. But can the England international break Robert Lewandowski's all-time record of 41 goals in a single German top-flight season with seven games left?

FCH provide top entertainment

We mentioned Stuttgart in an earlier post and how close did Heidenheim come to winning away at the Bundesliga's third-placed team last weekend!? Having recovered from 2-0 down to lead 3-2 in the closing stages at the MHPArena, Frank Schmidt's men only saw a famous win slip from their grasp when Deniz Undav scored in the eighth minute of added time. Check out those highlights.

Title slipping away

Bayern's 2-0 home reverse against Klassiker rivals Borussia Dortmund last weekend allowed runaway leaders Bayer Leverkusen to stretch their advantage at the top of the standings to 13 points. Despite that gap, FCB will be keen to keep trying until the last while they also have the task of keeping third-placed Stuttgart - who are snapping at the Bavarians' heels - at bay.

Six-goal thriller

Heidenheim were still riding high on a first-ever promotion to the Bundesliga when they visited the defending champions at the magnificent Allianz Arena earlier this season. A formidable fightback from 2-0 down to make it 2-2 had the visitors dreaming that day, until Bayern won it inside the final 20 minutes.
