Bayern Munich welcome struggling St Pauli to the Allianz Arena on Saturday afternoon in a Matchday 12 clash that already feels pretty loaded. The Bavarians are still licking their wounds from the midweek Champions League loss to Arsenal , a result covered in detail by SoftFootball .
Even with that setback, Bayern stay top of the Bundesliga and have not dropped much momentum at home. St Pauli, on the other side, arrive with eight straight league defeats and a serious shortage of goals. SoftFootball also highlighted how Michael Olise sparked Bayern's recent league comeback win over Freiburg , and he's expected to be important again.
Bayern's numbers remain ridiculous. They have scored in every league match this season and are averaging well over three goals per game. The unbeaten league start, the chance to equal their run of consecutive matches scoring twice, and their strong home form all create a feeling that this team is in a record-setting mood.
