Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Bundesliga meeting between Bayern Munich and Arminia Bielefeld at the Allianz Arena!

They bounced back in midweek in the Champions League though with a 2-1 victory over Dynamo Kiev to continue their perfect run in that competition. Arminia sit at the other end of the table and have won just one of their 12 league matches so far this season (D6 L5) - that win did come in their last away outing in the competition though as they beat Stuttgart 1-0.
