Union Berlin vs Bayern Munich: How to watch on TV in UK and US, live stream and kick-off time

Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich travel to the capital to face Union Berlin on Sunday, as German football returns from coronavirus suspension.

Hansi Flick's side went into the weekend's fixtures four points clear of second-placed Borussia Dortmund, with top-flight debutants Union sitting comfortably mid-table in 11th.

Bayern have the most wins, the best attack and the best defence so far this season and, in Robert Lewandowski, have the division's stand-out player. The Pole has 25 goals in 23 league games so far this season, with Gerd Muller's all-time season record of 40 goals still potentially within his grasp.

Urs Fischer's Union have punched above their weight in their first season in the Bundesliga so far, and were only narrowly beaten 2-1 in the reverse fixture in Munich.

Philippe Coutinho and Corentin Tolisso are both out after undergoing surgery but Kingsley Coman, Ivan Perisic and Jann-Fiete Arp are all back available.

Niklas Sule could now return from his cruciate ligament injury before the end of the season following the delay, but isn't fit for this game.
