Bayern and Germany midfielder Leon Goretzka takes aim and smashes an effort towards the Bremen goal but Jiri Pavlenka gets his hands to that and pushes the ball away to safety.

A long period of Bayern pressure ends as the home side win the ball back.

Their spell of possession ends three 50-50 passes later.

Werder Bremen are having to work so hard here just to keep Bayern at bay. Surely that'll tell late on in this game.

Harry Kane looks a tad annoyed with himself.

The England captain gets on the end of Leroy Sane's corner from the left but can't get any power on his header and sees home keeper Jiri Pavlenka claim it easily.

Bayern Munich look like they have a play more than their hosts every time they get the ball.

Bayern right-back Noussair Mazraoui fancies his chances from 25 yards out and just grazes the left-hand post.

Thomas Tuchel's side could be two or three up here already.

Marvin Ducksch picks up a booking for a foul on Bayern defender Dayot Upamecano on half way.

So close to a second goal for Bayern. Jamal Musiala picks up the ball just inside the Bremen half and accelerates away from his marker. He cuts in from the left and pings an effort towards the bottom left corner but sees it go just wide.

Bayern Munich look in full control at present. They are knocking the ball about with ease and trying to get it into the feet of Jamal Musiala, who is playing just off Harry Kane.

Harry Kane wins a free-kick of his own about 25 yards out for Bayern and elects to take it himself.

But that's straight into the wall. That one is to be filed under the ambitious category.

That looks like a bit of a let off for the visitors. Bayern were all over the place defending that free-kick but Niclas Fullkrug was a yard off.

Werder Bremen have the ball in the net as Niclas Fullkrug heads in Marvin Ducksch's pinpoint free-kick but the flag is up for offside.

The hosts win a free-kick in a dangerous position down the left. Can they get themselves back into it here?

Talk about quietening the home crowd.

All Bayern Munich early doors. Kingsley Coman drifts in off the left and finds Harry Kane in the box but the hosts snuff that attack out.

Away we go under the floodlights. Werder Bremen are in their traditional green and white home kit. Bayern Munich are in their new away strip of two-tone purple.

Werder Bremen were the worst team at home in the Bundesliga last season, winning just five of their 17 games at the Weser Stadium.

They have also lost 14 of their last 15 Bundesliga home games against Bayern, drawing the other one.
