Bayern Munich vs Arminia Bielefeld head-to-head record
Bayern found themselves 2-0 down at half-time the last time these two sides met, with second-half goals from Robert Lewandowski, Corentin Tolisso and Alphonso Davies salvaging a point at the Allianz Arena and sparing Bayern's blushes.
The Bavarians ran out 4-1 winners in the reverse fixture last term, with the previous encounter between these sides before last season coming all the way back in 2009.
Bayern Munich vs Arminia Bielefeld score prediction
Nagelsmann will be keen to right the wrongs from last weekend's defeat at Augsburg, and there could certainly be more difficult fixtures to respond than a home clash against a side with just one win all season.
Lewandowski is in electric form in attack, while it could be an evening for the likes of Kingsley Coman and Tolisso to cement their place as regular starters. Don't expect Bayern to trip up this weekend.
Prediction: Bayern Munich 3-0 Arminia Bielefeld
