Bayern Munich will endeavour to reignite their Bundesliga title hopes when they welcome Union Berlin to the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night.
The two teams were initially scheduled to meet on December 2, but this fixture was postponed due to adverse weather conditions.
Bayern Munich's quest to win a 12th successive Bundesliga title suffered a major blow on Sunday as they were surprisingly beaten 1-0 at home against mid-table outfit Werder Bremen.
Thomas Tuchel would have hoped that his side's warm-weather training camp in the Algarve during the winter break would have reinvigorated his players for the resumption of top-flight football, but the Bavarian giants failed to impress and slumped to their first home defeat of the season.
Mitchell Weiser haunted his former club by netting what proved to be the winning goal in the 59th minute to help Bremen claim their first win over Bayern since 2008. The reigning champions now face an uphill battle to retain their title as they sit seven points adrift of unbeaten leaders Bayer Leverkusen, who have played a game more.
