Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich LIVE: Kane can go top of Bundesliga but facing Alonso’s unbeaten leaders – UK kick-off time, team news and how to follow
Harry Kane can take a huge stride to finally end his trophy drought when Bayern Munich face Bayer Leverkusen in a blockbuster Bundesliga clash this weekend.
Kane scored his 24th Bundesliga goal in Bayern's 3-1 victory over Borussia Monchengladbach last time out but his side still trails league leaders Leverkusen by two points.
That strike edged him ever closer to Robert Lewandowski’s 41-goal record, but winning a major trophy is by far the biggest prize.
Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen are still on for an invincible Bundesliga season, having needed a 94th-minute penalty equaliser from Exequiel Palacios to snatch a 2-2 draw when these sides met in September.
