Bayern Munich vs. Eintracht Braunschweig: Team News, Preview, Live Stream & TV
Bayern Munich are coasting through the Bundesliga at the moment, and it looks as though the good times are here to stay, at least until Wednesday night when Eintracht Braunschweig come to Munich in a plucky DFB-Pokal tie.
Pep Guardiola's side have scored no less than 16 goals in their last three league matches and will be heavy favourites to rack up another shortlist of goalscorers against the former Bundesliga side, at the Allianz Arena on the night.
Torsten Lieberknecht's side may have looked like promotion candidates at one point this season, but with the turn of the year and the return from winter break came a poor run of form that has seen the Lions fail to pick up a single win in all competitions in their last six games.

Predicted Bayern Lineup

For Bayern, we should expect to see Guardiola shuffle things along against such an opponent in the German cup competition.
Juan Bernat is likely to return to left-back with Rafinha on the right, while Dante comes in at central defence alongside Jerome Boateng or Holger Badstuber.
This may then lead to David Alaba being pushed up to midfield alongside Bastian Schweinsteiger and Mario Gotze, to form a complete midfield trio.
This will then leave Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery on either wing, with Robert Lewandowski returning to take up his role as the lone striker.
Players to Watch
Franck Ribery
Although a particular right-sided winger will undoubtedly be key to any success Bayern pick up against Braunschweig, Guardiola will be keen to continue testing Ribery and ensuring the Frenchman continues his return to full fitness.
Although it may seem disrespectful to consider the 2.Bundesliga side as a lesser test, Wednesday's opponents really should be no more than cannon fodder for the likes of Ribery.
Vegar Eggen Hedenstad
In terms of where we should focus on this Braunschweig side in such a tie, we really can't look past the travelling side's defence and whether or not they can hold out against Germany's biggest club.
At left-back we have Vegar Eggen Hedenstad, a defender who has been ever-present for the club this season, and at only 23 years old he already shows the leadership and skill to thrive.
The Norwegian full-back is a young prospect and will hope to prove his worth against the mightiest of foes.

Key Battles
Emil Berggreen vs Dante
Norwegian forward Emil Berggreen will be tasked with offering something up front for Braunschweig when the minnows travel to the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night.
Although the odds will be firmly stacked against him—even against backup defenders such as Dante—Berggreen has scored three goals in his last four league games and brings with him some much-needed form ahead of the tie.
Arjen Robben vs Vegar Eggen Hedenstad
Bayern will undoubtedly look toward Robben as the key influence in attack, with the Dutch international picking up no less than seven goals in his last five Bundesliga games.
The player tasked with keeping him quiet will be none other than aforementioned young talent Hedenstad—a truly daunting task for the inexperienced defender.
Odds (per Oddschecker)
Bayern: 1/12
Draw: 13/1
Braunschweig: 45/1
