HONOURS EVEN

It's all over. Bayern have drawn their third game in a row and the Bundesliga table is looking very interesting as a result. The hosts led through a Leroy Sane opener in the first half but Eintracht battled back and scored through who else but Randal Kolo Muani. Bayern top the standings by a point from Union Berlin. Eintracht are in fifth, five points behind the Bavarians.

LATE BAYERN SUB

It's one more change for Bayern, who bring Marcel Sabitzer into the mix. Kimmich then powers a shot over the top.

EINTRACHT PUSHING

Eintracht lash one goalwards - Sow swinging a leg - and the ball bounces off Kolo Muani. Kamada can't quite control the loose ball and the chance is gone.

BAYERN SWAP

Julian Nagelsmann is not a happy camper. The Bayern boss - visibly frustrated - brings Mathys Tel on for Choupo-Moting.

Musiala has a pop at one end which goes over while Sow's subsequent strike is stopped by Sommer.

DEADLY KOLO MUANI

Randal Kolo Muani now has seven goals and 10 assists for the season! Incredible numbers from the French World Cup runner-up.

Bayern respond to that equaliser by bringing Gnabry and Gravenberch into the game. Coman and Sane are off.
69'

FRANKFURT LEVEL !

What a goal! Kolo Muani scores against Bayern for the second time this season. A breakaway for Eintracht sees the French forward feed Kamada and then take the ball back. Inside the area on the left, Kolo Muani holds off Upamecano and sends the ball across Sommer and into the far corner.

EINTRACHT CHANGES

Try as they might, Eintracht just can't find daylight in the Bayern defence. Coach Glasner throws Borre and Kamada into the mix to try and change that. Lindström and Rode make way.

BAYERN BREAK

Eintracht are furious. The visitors thought there was a foul in a build up to one of their moves. Instead, Bayern broke and went close through a Choupo-Moting back-heel and then Musiala's blocked shot.

HALF TIME

A very entertaining half ends with Bayern in front, Leroy Sane with the game's only goal thus far. This one is still very much alive so don't go anywhere!
44'

ALMOST FRANKFURT

Just for a moment, it looked like Lindström might storm away towards the Bayern goal but the Dane lost control at a crucial moment. We'll have two minutes of added time at the end of this first half.
42'

MUSIALA MAGIC

Musiala draws the oohs and ahhs from the home crowd with a sublime piece of skill. Sane's subsequent strike is easily gathered by Trapp.

GOAL KINGS BAYERN

Bayern have scored at least one goal in their last 49 consecutive Bundesliga home games. The last time today's hosts failed to score at home will be three years ago in February, when Leipzig paid a visit to the Allianz Arena.

Bayern were already on their way to victory by this stage in the corresponding fixture in Frankfurt at the start of the season. Today's hosts eventually won that game 6-1. This game has an altogether different feel.

SOMMER YELLOW

Kolo Muani bounds through on the left and Sommer wants to come and meet the French forward. Bayern's new shot stopper has his eye on the ball but he misses it and downs Kolo Muani outside the area. That's a booking for the goalkeeper.

HOSTS ON THE UP

Bayern are beginning to look very dangerous. Musiala is almost in after a poor Eintracht defensive header allows the 19-year-old to have a look. Then Kimmich picks out a Sane's run around the back with a flighted pass. Kevin Trapp needed to be alert to claim the ball off his line.

GOAL KINGS ON SHOW

Lest we forget, we've got the Bundesliga's leading players in terms of goal involvements going head to head here. Bayern's Jamal Musiala has nine goals and six assists to his name this term while Frankfurt's Randal Kolo-Muani is on six goals and 10 assists for the campaign.

BAYERN TO GET PHYSICAL

FCB coach Julian Nagelsmann has called on his team to match their opponents' physicality at the Allianz Arena in a few hours time. "We need the physicality as well, part of our commitment is to bring the necessary physicality onto the pitch,” the Bayern tactician explained. "We know we have to do things better and we will do better," the 35-year-old added when looking back on his side's last two games, which ended in draws.

"MAKE LIFE DIFFICULT"

Here's Eintracht coach Oliver Glasner on what his side need to do at the Allianz Arena this evening: "We have to be compact and exploit the spaces afforded to us by winning our running duels and developing a goal threat. They usually commit a lot of players forward, which creates spaces for us. We want to make life difficult for them with the qualities at our disposal."

TALE OF THE TAPE

Eintracht picked up maximum points on their last visit to Munich back in October 2021. That was a rare win for the Eagles at the home of the record champions, however. Bayern have had more home triumphs against Eintracht in Germany's top flight than against any other club, today's hosts winning 41 of 51 league encounters between the sides in Bavaria.
