Musiala to the rescue!
The youngster has been Bayern's man for the big occasion many times in recent years, and he pops up again here. He puts his quick feet to good use as he beats his man in the area before sneaking an effort into the far corner.

Kane wide!
The 30-year-old is usually deadly from those positions, so it is a surprise to see him direct his shot wide of the post. A let-off for Freiburg.

Half-time: Freiburg 1-1 Bayern
An entertaining first half draws to a close with the teams on level terms. Christian Günter broke the deadlock with a fantastic strike, but was arguably upstaged by Mathys Tel's wonderful effort from outside the area. All to play for after the interval.

On his first Bundesliga start of the season, Tel finds the back of the net! He picked up the ball on the edge of the area, cut inside and curled an effort into the far corner, leaving Atubolu with no chance. All square!

Freiburg lead!
And just like that, the hosts lead! Neuer does well to twice deny Sallai in quick succession, but Bayern are unable to clear their lines. Instead, the ball falls to the captain just outside the area, and he takes a step back before volleying into the bottom corner. Lovely hit!

Freiburg struggling
While they are into the last 16 of the UEFA Europa League, Freiburg are not having the best of times domestically - they have picked up only one out of a possible 15 points over the past five league games. If they are to qualify for Europe once more, they need to turn their fortunes around, starting here.
Up against it in the title race
Bayern are usually the ones being hunted - now, they are having to do the hunting themselves at the table's summit. After 23 matchdays, they find themselves eight points adrift of league leaders Bayer Leverkusen, who are yet to lose a game in all competitions. Can they still win the Meisterschale, or will this campaign bring an end to their run of 11 successive titles? Tonight, like every other match before the end of the term, they cannot afford to drop points.

Grifo is Freiburg's danger man
While Kane is Bayern's obvious attacking threat, Vincenzo Grifo is the man the Bavarians have to keep an eye. The Italian international was the Breisgau Brasilianer's top goalscorer in the Bundesliga last term with 15 strikes last term, just one fewer than Torjägerkönigen Christopher Nkunku and Niclas Füllkrug, while he leads the way this term for Freiburg too with seven.

Can Bayern banish away blues?
The champions are on a run of three successive away defeats in all competitions, although they will fancy their chances of correcting that against a Freiburg side with just one Bundesliga win so far in 2024.
