Bayern München – SC Paderborn 07

Bayern München head into the clash at the Allianz Arena perched in fourth place with seven points from two wins and a draw, having scored seven and conceded just two. Their opponents, SC Paderborn 07, sit languishing in 15th spot, managing only a single point from a solitary draw and two defeats, and have yet to find the net while letting in four. The Bavarians will look to extend their unbeaten run and solidify their challenge for a European place, whereas Paderborn will be desperate for a first‑league goal and a vital point to steer clear of the relegation zone. The stark contrast in form and goal difference makes the encounter a classic showdown between a top‑four contender and a struggling side fighting for survival.
