Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time gives the time in seconds in which it takes a team to win back the ball following a loss of possession. It also allows conclusions to be drawn about a team's style of play. Only time when the ball is in play is counted (i.e. no breaks in play such as for goal-kicks, throw-ins etc).

Another opportunity immediately for the visitors! This time, Nkunku is the man who is denied, firing at Sommer from a tight angle.

Almost a second
Half the home crowd think Musiala has buried an effort into the bottom corner, but his shot instead hits the side netting. Leipzig have to be careful not to let this match run away from them.

Bayern have lift-off!
The Bavarians take the lead and move one step closer to the title! A nice move finds Gnabry, who cannons an effort in off the post. The Allianz Arena goes wild!

Dominant hosts
The pattern of the opening minutes has continued with Bayern on top and Leipzig unable to register a chance yet. Musiala threads a pass through the defence intended for Cancelo but it just runs out of play before he can reach it.
18'
Müller almost gives Bayern the lead!
What a chance! Cancelo pings a great ball over the defence to Musiala, who lays it off to put Müller one-on-one with Blaswich. The Bayern legend has to react fast, and the Leipzig keeper is just as speedy to deny his effort.
15'
Leipzig seeing little of the ball
The visitors have been running hard and hunting the hosts as much as possible, though, as they seek more of a foothold in the game.

Cancelo and Simakan bash heads contesting an aerial ball. A painful one, but it looks like they can both play on after a bit of treatment.

Goals (nearly always) guaranteed
Bayern have scored in their past 56 Bundesliga home matches. The last time they didn't net at the Allianz Arena came against Leipzig in a 0-0 draw in February 2020.
Müller magic
Some 18 of the 19 competitive goals Bayern Munich have scored under Thomas Tuchel have come with a certain Thomas Müller on the pitch.
Bayern home brilliance
Bayern Munich just need to avoid defeat to be unbeaten at home in 2022/23. That would be the 14th time they have gone a Bundesliga season without losing at their own ground.
Nkunku moves past Forsberg
Christopher Nkunku's two assists in Leipzig's 2-1 win over Werder Bremen make him the man with the second most direct goal involvements for the club in the Bundesliga (79). He moves ahead of Emil Forsberg in those stakes but remains behind Timo Werner.
Leipzig advance
Leipzig have more points (60) and wins (18) to their name than what they had at the end of last season (58 and 17).

HUGE game!
It's the penultimate weekend of the 2022/23 Bundesliga season, and it's still all to play for. Bayern will be crowned champions if they beat Leipzig and Dortmund slip up in Augsburg - but Leipzig are playing for a top-four finish. Three points in Munich would seal the deal, and open the door for BVB to reclaim top spot on Sunday.
