Bayern Munich may be crowned champions if they beat Mainz and Bayer Leverkusen drop points against Augsburg

Turn your attention to the german league this weekend, as Bayern Munich may be crowned champions if they beat Mainz and Bayer Leverkusen drop points against Augsburg.

Bayern Munich’s elimination from the Champions League made it so the Bundesliga is their only opportunity for silverware this season. And the exhausting title race is almost over. Even if Bayer Leverkusen win their fixture this week, the Bavarians need only two more wins to secure the title. And last week’s performance at Heidenheim proved that they don’t plan on dropping more points until the end.

On the other side, we have Mainz, who are one wrong step away from throwing away their hard-fought position in the Top 6. Until recently, the 05ers were unplayable, beating every team they crossed paths with. But after a phenomenal 4-win streak in February and early March, Mainz are now riding a streak of five games without a win.

Their form dropped at the worst possible time, and with their difficult schedule, their fans could be in for a soul-crushing end of the season. The hopes for Champions League football are alive but barely.

Bayern Munich: Urbig, Guerreiro, Stanisic, Dier, Laimer, Kimmich, Pavlovic, Coman, Olise, Gnabry, Kane.

Mainz: Zentner, Kohr, Jenz, Costa, Caci, Amiri, Sano, Mwene, Nebel, Burkardt, Weiper.
