Full time: Bayern 3-0 Freiburg

Bayern moved third in the standings, level on points with Borussia Dortmund, and two behind Stuttgart and Bayer Leverkusen with a straightforward win against Freiburg. Kingsley Coman's unintentional opener preceded Leroy Sané's sixth Bundesliga goal of the season while a deflected Coman strike at the death helped the hosts ease to victory in their last game before the international break.

Three and easy for FCB

It's been a long time coming. Coman takes possession on the right and controls brilliantly to leave the Freiburg defender for dead before shooting for goal. A wicked deflection takes the ball past Atubolu. Game over.

No way through for Kane

You've got a friend in me

As we watch Bayern continue to press forward, it's worth noting that five of Sane's seven goals in all competitions this season have been assisted by Kane. The pair have worked up a wonderful understanding at the Bavarian giants.

Atubolu on point

Atubolu gets both hands safely onto Sané's popped up pass from the left and Freiburg survive this time.

Almost Bayern

Half-time

Half time

The hosts are well in control of this game at the break. Goals from Coman and Sané - the latter assisted by Harry Kane - mean Bayern are on course for three points at this stage. Freiburg need to improve after the restart.
44'

Sané denied

Ohhh Sané's had a screamer chalked off for offside. The Bayern attacker picked up a pass from Coman in an advanced position, jinked his way this and that before rifling into the top corner. Tough call for Sané, that was sublime.
40'

Kimmich angry

Merlin Röhl manhandles Goretzka a bit but the referee allows play to go on. Bayern's players are not happy with that decision, least of all Kimmich, who makes his feelings known to the ref.

Bayern want more

The hosts have been hungry for goals from the off here and the chances of more arriving at the Freiburg end are high.

Coman first

Coman can't have meant that but the home faithful don't care. That's the Bayern No. 11's first competitive goal of the season. He last scored on Matchday 34 of 2022/23 in a 2-1 win at Cologne.

What on earth?

If Coman means this, it's a goal of the season contender. The French attacker gets down the right and smacks a cross-shot into the area. It's looping high towards the goal and Noah Atubolu raises a desperate hand as the ball dips into the net.

Davies high and wide

Kane with a lifted pass in for Sané. It's a lovely ball but Sané can't control it as he would have liked and the Bayern attacker is forced off his stride by the Freiburg defence. The ball rolls to Davies and when Sané jumps out of his way, the Canadian prods one off target.

Höler off target

Höler with a solid chance on the right but the Freiburg forward slashes at it a bit and his effort flies off target. The visiting striker lacked a bit of composure there.

All Bayern

The hosts are really taking the game to their opponents here. Bayern have menaced down the right through Mazraoui while Müller has also been causing problems. A few corners in quick succession for Tuchel's side and Freiburg are up against it here.

Kane watch

So, can England's all-time record goalscorer add to his incredible 11 goal involvements (eight goals, three assists) in the Bundesliga this season? Kane looks sharp as he goes through his pre-match warm-up at the Allianz Arena and it could well be a case of Freiburg beware!

Ginter rarity

Matthias Ginter - laid low by illness today - misses out for the Black Forest side in the Bundesliga for the first time since his return to the club in summer of 2022.

It's Müller time

The Bayern icon is back in his team's starting line-up for the first time since the Matchday 4 draw at home against Bayer Leverkusen. In the last five competitive games, Müller was used as a substitute three times.

Guerreiro out

As we await the announcement of today's teams, we're learning that one player who is certain to miss out is Raphael Guerreiro after it was announced the Portuguese international picked up a thigh injury in training.

The lay of the land

After Saturday's results, Bayern have been nudged down to fifth in the table but a win would take them above Borussia Dortmund on goal-difference and either second or third depending on how Leverkusen get on earlier in the day. As for Freiburg defeat could see them slip out of the top half by the end of the matchday, while all three points would take them within a point of the top-six.

Set your alarms

Some admin to get us underway today, with Bayern vs. Freiburg kicking-off at 5.30pm CEST. Team news will drop around one hour before then so set your alarms now and pop notifications on if you're using our app to make sure you get those teams as soon as they land.

Freiburg team news

Streich will be without a few important players for the visit to the Allianz Arena. The most important absentee is captain Christian Günter, who continues to recover from a broken arm, while Michael Gregoritsch will also be unavailable. Daniel-Kofi Kyereh is nearing the end of a substantial spell on the sidelines with a cruciate ligament injury, but this encounter comes too soon. Yannick Keitel and Nicolas Höfler will also not be involved, with the latter serving his last of a three-game ban.

Set-piece battle

So far this campaign, Bayern have conceded four goals from set-pieces while, in each of the last two seasons, Freiburg have scored the more most goals from dead-ball situations in the Bundesliga (24 in 2021/22 and 21 in 2022/23). Vincenzo Grifo's prowess from free-kicks, corners and penalties have already led to three goals this term, although Bayern lead the way with six.

Solid start for Freiburg

Christian Streich's side have not set the Bundesliga alight this campaign, but they have, on the whole, been typically solid - a 5-0 loss against Stuttgart aside. After six matches, they have 10 points to their name, which leaves them comfortably in the top half of the table, and they will look to make life difficult for Bayern here.

Watch: Freiburg 0-1 Bayern - previous meeting

Matthijs de Ligt's Goal of the Season earned Bayern a narrow victory over Freiburg when these two last met.

Head-to-head

Freiburg earned a first ever competitive victory away at Bayern Munich at the 24th attempt when they won 2-1 in last season’s DFB-Pokal quarter-final. However, Bayern are yet to lose in 23 Bundesliga encounters in Munich (W20, D3) and only Bayern themselves have faced a team at home more often in the Bundesliga without ever losing (27 vs. Wolfsburg; W25, D2).

Red-hot Kane

Harry Kane has scored eight goals in his first six Bundesliga games for Bayern, with only Miroslav Klose (2007) previously netting as many for the club as quickly. The England captain has been directly involved in 11 league goals for Bayern this season (eight goals, three assists). Wow.
