The Bundesliga title is already in the bag. However, the games are not ever yet. Saturday in the Bundesliga features a Bavarian Derby at the Allianz Arena when Augsburg visit Bayern Munich. The game is more nuisance for FC Bayern than anything else at this point, with everyone at the club focused on Tuesday's Champions League match against FC Barcelona.
Pep Guardiola has stated, as you'd expect, that Bayern will be rotating the lineup somewhat. One should not be surprised to see a couple of Bayern II or U-19 players in the side. While Bayern will take the match seriously, there is no questioning that their attention is turned to Tuesday which could spell good news for Augsburg.
Augsburg are still grasping onto the final Europa League place in the league, but their form as of late would have you questioning whether or not they can hold on to European competition. A big win against FC Bayern would go a long way toward sealing the deal and sending a second Bavarian club to Europe next season.
Any way you slice it, FC Bayern hosting Augsburg will be an interesting proposition for both sides.
Once the lineups are released, this thread will be updated.
