Small break - not a kip - is my idea of perfect prep

"When Bardsley's turning out at right-back for Hartlepool next season, picking up fivers rather than kipping on fifties, maybe he'll have figured it out"

Match in Focus

B Dortmund v B Munich

Home Win	Draw	Away Win

Key stats

Bayern Munich have won 24 of their last 26 games in all competitions
Borussia Dortmund have kept just one clean sheet in their last ten matches

Expert verdict

Bayern Munich were pipped by Chelsea in last season's Champions League final but they can make amends against compatriots Borussia Dortmund this term. Bayern's form has been incredibly consistent throughout the season and their array of attacking talent could be too much for a Dortmund defence who wobbled against Malaga and Real Madrid.
