Ole Werner on facing Bayern

"Bayern haven't got any weaker. [Last time we played them] we often found ourselves on knife's edge where we gave the ball away carelessly and Bayern were allowed spaces that they were able to utilise. That's why it will be important to be compact and not allow too much depth [for them], but at the same time we want to look for depth ourselves. We have to prove that we've progressed here and bring what characterises our game out onto the pitch."

Vincent Kompany on facing Bremen

"We can only win one game tomorrow, against Bremen. That has absolute priority. They're very good away from home. There are no easy games in the Bundesliga."

Bremen bolstered

The north-German side made some smart acquisitions themselves over the window. Their forward options have been boosted with the signing of André Silva on loan from RB Leipzig. Defensively, they've expanded too with the acquisition of Issa Kaboré on loan from Manchester City. In terms of departures, midfielder Naby Keïta has been loaned out to Hungarian side Ferencvaros.

Bayern's business

The Bavarians completed some shrewd moves in the winter transfer market. Most notably they acquired Hoffenheim's young midfield maestro Tom Bischof on a permanent deal, who will join them at the end of the season. In addition to Bischof, Jonas Urbig has joined immediately from Cologne as a young goalkeeper set to inherit the gloves of goalkeeping-great Manuel Neuer, who also signed a contract extension on deadline day, ensuring Bayern fans are to get another year of Neuer! With regards to outgoings, Mathys Tel joined English Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur on loan.

Historic

Bayern and Bremen are the top two clubs each with the most Bundesliga matches played (2030 and 2022). On Matchday 21 they will meet for the 116th time for what is a record clash in Bundesliga history.

A tale of two halves

In the first half of the season, Bayern conceded just 13 times in 17 games. However, the record champions have let in six goals in the second half of the season so far, in just three games! Only the bottom two pairing of Kiel (9) and Bochum (7) have conceded more in this time.
