Darmstadt face Bayern Munich at the Merck-Stadion on Sunday, Dec. 18. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Bayern Munich are playing catch up in the Bundesliga for the first time in a very long time. They trail league leaders RB Leipzig by three points heading into their match Sunday, though they’ll recapture the lead on goal difference with a win. Things are looking up for Bayern, however, after a very disappointing beginning of November, in which they drew with Hoffenheim before losing to Borussia Dortmund. Since then, they’ve won five matches in a row in all competitions and are coming off a convincing 5-0 win against Wolfsburg in their last match.
Darmstadt should provide forgiving opponents. They’re bottom of the table on eight points after 14 matches, they’ve conceded 27 goals and have scored a league-worst 11. That’s bad news given Bayern have the league’s best defense and its best attack. Robert Lewandowski, Thomas Muller and Arjen Robben were all on the score sheet in their last match and will fancy their chances against the league’s bottom place side.

Bayern are huge favorites for this one, even away from home. So much so they may choose to rest some of their stars ahead of a midweek, top of the table encounter with RB Leipzig, their last match before the winter break. Still, there’s enough depth in this squad they should run out comfortable winners whoever Carlo Ancelotti selects.
