Bayern Munich welcome Wolfsburg to the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night, as they look to get back to the top of the Bundesliga.

On Saturday, Bayern Munich drew 1-1 with Union Berlin in a game that they could easily have lost, had their opponents been a bit more clinical.

Robert Lewandowski scored in the 67th minute to rescue the point for Bayern, after Grischa Promel had given Union the lead in the fourth minute.

That draw for Bayern afforded Bayer Leverkusen the opportunity to go top of the league, and they did so with a 4-1 victory over Hoffenheim.

Wolfsburg are yet to lose any of their 11 games in the Bundesliga this season. They have drawn six of those, which has prevented them from going higher than fourth on the table.
