Bayerns dominant form may secure their 35th league trophy this week

With a 12 point lead and five matches left, plus a goal difference of plus 78, Bayern are poised to claim their 35th Bundesliga title with ease.

They might clinch it at home versus third placed Stuttgart, provided they outperform Borussia Dortmunds result away to sixth ranked Hoffenheim on Saturday.

Coming off their superb showing against Real Madrid, manager Vincent Kompany might consider rotating key players, especially ahead of the German Cup semi final at Bayer Leverkusen just three days after.

Though on course for their 13th Bundesliga win in 14 seasons, Bayern have not reached the German Cup final since 2020.

A further league success looks certain, yet they could be delayed as Stuttgarts strong run makes victory on Sunday no sure thing.

After their December defeat to Bayern, Stuttgart have only dropped points twice in 16 Bundesliga fixtures.

This may not be their final encounter this campaign.

As Stuttgart face Freiburg in the German Cup semi on Thursday, a potential fourth matchup could occur in the Berlin final late in May.

Bayern kicked off the year with a 2 1 victory over Stuttgart in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup back in August.

Stuttgart attacker Jamie Leweling, boasting seven goals and seven assists in the league so far, stated his side would adopt an attacking approach in the champions home ground.

"You must play boldly," Leweling explained to the Bundesliga site. "Be daring yet cautious, as they exploit any error.

"Stay composed and attack with bravery."
