Bayern's 2023/24 league campaign got underway in Bremen as Harry Kane netted on his Bundesliga bow in a comfortable 4-0 victory.
Thomas Tuchel's side have since gone on to enjoy a productive domestic campaign, although they remain four points behind league leaders Bayer Leverkusen after Exequiel Palacios scored a last-gasp winner at Augsburg last weekend.
Jamal Musiala scored twice in a 3-0 win victory for Bayern over Hoffenheim in their 2024 opener.

Bayern Munich vs Werder Bremen score prediction
Bayern made light work of Werder in the reverse fixture to start their 2023/24 campaign and they should enjoy similar comforts on Sunday despite their defensive absences.
The visitors are without leading scorer Ducksch which puts a cap on their attacking potential and their long list of absentees renders a victory in Munich unlikely.
They're a mediocre Bundesliga outfit and one Bayern should feast on this weekend.
Prediction: Bayern Munich 4-1 Werder Bremen
