Current leaders Bayern Munich will seek to keep their distance from second-placed Bayer Leverkusen when the top-two in Bundesliga face off at the Allianz Arena on Saturday.
Vincent Kompany's men are in a good overall form, looking to extend their perfect record in all competitions to seven games after a 5-0 league win at Werder Bremen last weekend.
On the other side, Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen lost their unbeaten tag quite early this season but would aim at extending their winning run to four games after defeating Wolfsburg 4-3 on the previous matchday.
