Bayern Munich have a comfortable seven-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga table, but they face an Augsburg side who have made an unlikely surge to third in the standings.
Twelve points separate the two teams, but Augsburg have dealt a blow to Pep Guardiola's side before by securing a 1-0 win on home turf back in April last season.
The victory ended Bayern's 53-game unbeaten run in the Bundesliga and they could inflict some pain again on Saturday as Guardiola's side are yet to taste defeat in the league so far this season.
Bayern could only muster one goal in each of their last two league victories, but they managed to hit three past CSKA Moscow in midweek's 3-0 win at the Allianz Arena.
Augsburg are on an unbeaten run themselves, and while it may not be as impressive as Bayern's, Markus Weinzierl's side have won their last four league games and conceded just two goals in the process.
The club may be too far behind Bayern in the table at this stage, but they are five points behind second-placed Wolfsburg after 14 games in the league.
As mentioned, in this fixture last season Augsburg snatched a slender victory over Bayern on home turf, but Guardiola's men have conceded just once in six away fixtures this season.
Bastian Schweinsteiger could continue building his fitness from a knee injury by starting the away match for Bayern, while Raul Bobadilla is likely to start up front for the home side.
