Bayern Munich, the reigning Bundesliga champions, who are two points behind the league leaders Bayer Leverkusen, will have to wait at least one week to try and close the gap on the points table. Since there is no clear information yet about when the Bayern Munich versus Union Berlin match will be played, the Bavarians could have eight days off to start the month of December, which is otherwise a very busy month in club football.
Apart from Bundesliga, Bayern Munich are currently participating in the UEFA Champions League in Group A with teams like Manchester United, Galatasaray, and Copenhagen. After five matches in the group stage of the UCL, the Bavarians are through to the knockout stages of the competition, despite the fact they had to settle for a 0-0 draw against Copenhagen at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, November 29.
