Bayern get us underway!
Whilst Eintracht Frankfurt have one of the better defensive records in the league, today Niko Kovac will discover how resilient his side truly are when Bayern Munich make the trip to Frankfurt.
Hello and welcome to the live text commentary for the Bundesliga clash between Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayern Munich. We’ll be guiding you through all the action as it happens at the Commerzbank Arena.
With the shift to a more defensive formation, Frankfurt have made just the two changes to the side that lost to Freiburg with Hector coming in at the back. However, Bayern have decided to make five alterations to the side which started against Cologne and failed to deliver all three points.
Just five minutes until kick-off! The fans are in their seats, the atmosphere is building and the players are in the tunnel. Not long now.
Half time in Frankfurt and the score is 1-1 heading into the break. Bayern Munich certainly second best in this contest at the match ticked on and Ancelotti may have to look to Lewandowski to change this game.
Meanwhile, Bayern are coming off the back of a disappointing 1-1 home draw with Cologne last time out, so we’re expecting an explosive display from Carlo Ancelotti’s men.
Frankfurt have earned themselves a point with ten men. Fantastic work from the hosts who score versus Bayern Munich for the first time since April 2011.
That's all from us this afternoon. Thanks for joining us throughout this Bundesliga clash between Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayern Munich.
