• Manager Valerien Ismail switched to a back-three last weekend and is likely to stick with this system at Bayern. Christian Träsch could replace the suspended Paul Seguin in central midfield, while veteran Marcel Schäfer could fill in on the left, allowing Yannick Gerhardt to switch to the centre to replace Maximilian Arnold, who has to serve a one-match ban as well.

• Mats Hummels is ill and won’t feature this weekend. Jérôme Boateng has a shoulder problem but should recover in time to partner Javi Martinez at the back, while Holger Badstuber is on standby. Joshua Kimmich could get a chance in central midifeld as well, should manager Carlo Ancelotti decide to rest Xabi Alonso. Thomas Müller and Franck Ribéry are expected to start on the flanks, after they were rested in the Champions League match against Atlético in midweek.

• Bayern have won back-to-back Bundesliga games after their disappointing defeat against Borussia Dortmund. They are back on track to challenge RB Leipzig for the spot at the top of the table and look more versatile in their approach now.

• Wolfsburg have only won one of their last 12 Bundesliga matches and now sit only two points above the relegation places. The team desperately has to improve in all areas or risk being serious contenders to go down.
