Bayern Munich look all set to get their hands on the Bundesliga title yet again

Wolfsburg host Bayern Munich at the Volkswagen Arena as they aim to secure European football on the last day of the Bundesliga season. The home side sixth on the league standings and will have to better or match Hoffenheim's result to confirm direct entry into the Europa League group stages.

Bayern Munich, on the other hand, will get their hands on the Bundesliga crown for the eighth successive season on Saturday. The Bavarian giants have been virtually unstoppable since Hansi Flick's appointment and will look to cap off yet another impressive Bundesliga campaign on the right note.

While Wolfsburg have a lot riding on the game and are expected to field a full-strength side, Bayern Munich could make a handful of changes to their squad, much like they did so against Freiburg.

Both teams have enjoyed stellar league campaigns thus far and the Bundesliga seasons prepares to draw to an exciting climax, as Bayern Munich prepare for their coronation once again.
