Perfectly poised as Leipzig enters enemy lines

Bayern Munich faces an acid test of its status as Bundesliga leader in Wednesday's showdown when it hosts second-place RB Leipzig, which has nothing to lose.

The Bavarian giant has won the Bundesliga title at a canter for four straight seasons, but Leipzig, which was founded in 2009, has torn up the form book in its first season in Germany's top flight.

Just like Bayern, it has won 11 of its 15 league games, with three wins and a single loss.
