Bayern travel to the German capital on an 11-game unbeaten run in the Bundesliga – having only dropped points in their match against league rivals RB Leipzig in that sequence.
Goals have come easy for the league leaders during this second-half of the German season – with nine of their last 10 wins coming by at least a two-goal margin.
But Union are enjoying their first season in the German top-flight this year and currently sit in 11th in the table, silencing those who predicted they'd be the favourites for relegation in the pre-season.
Even so, they'll have their work cut out against Bayern hitman Robert Lewandowski, who's the Bundesliga's top scorer so far this season with 25 goals - including six in their last six league matches - while former Arsenal reject Serge Gnabry has proven all the doubters wrong with 11 goals this term.
Gnabry to score and Bayern to win is 13/8.
A £5 bet on that will return over £13.
Lewandowski to score from outside the box is 12/1.
