Bavarian Podcast Works: Preview Show — Bayern Munich vs. Hoffenheim (Rückrunde)

Bayern Munich shook off a disappointing draw with Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga last weekend by throttling Red Bull Salzburg in the Champions League.

Next up is a very good Hoffenheim squad, led by former Bayern Munich II boss Sebastian Hoeneß. Hoffenheim, of course, also features Bayern Munich loanee Chris Richards. The Alabama native is battling a foot injury and probably will not play, but the USMNT defender has made the most of his loan assignment.

Here is what we have on tap for this episode:

• A look at where both teams sit in the Bundesliga table.
• A show of respect for what Hoffenheim has done this season.
• A look at why Bayern Munich might look to sell Richards despite his great progress.
• A somewhat educated guess at how Bayern Munich might align itself this weekend.
• A probably not educated prediction on the match.

As always, we love your feedback and appreciate all the support!
