FC Bayern vs VfB Stuttgart preview: Potential title clincher for Kompany's side

Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich keep finding ways to win this season. Last weekend, a heavily rotated side battered St. Pauli 5-0, which, combined with Borussia Dortmund's loss to Bayer Leverkusen, put Bayern twelve points clear at the top of the Bundesliga. Much of the focus, though, was on their midweek clash at the Allianz Arena.

Despite going down after less than a minute, Bayern stormed back to beat Real Madrid 4-3 and win 6-4 on aggregate. The aggregate score was level until the 89th minute, when Luis Díaz and Michael Olise scored in quick succession to win it. Kompany's side are now in the Champions League semi-finals, where PSG awaits.

The Bavarians could be celebrating as soon as this weekend. With a twelve-point lead and only five games left, a win or draw combined with a Dortmund loss would clinch the title.

Bayern are missing Tom Bischof, , and due to injuries.
