Wolfsburg vs Hoffenheim LIVE: Bundesliga result, final score and reaction
Follow live coverage as Wolfsburg take on Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga today.
Bayern Munich remain the team to beat in the German top flight with Julian Nagelsmann's juggernaut side 31-time winners of the competition.
Boasting some of the best players in the world such as Sadio Mane, Thomas Muller and Manuel Neuer they are always favourites to retain their league crown.
Rivals Borussia Dortmund traditionally push them the closest and have won the title five times, most recently back in 2012 under Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
Borussia Mönchengladbach were a force in the Seventies winning the league five times but are without a champion team since while Werder Bremen, Hamburg and Stuttgart are all multi-time winners too.
RB Leipzig are the newest kids on the block and backed by energy drinks manufacturer Red Bull are now threatening to challenge for a first title of their own.

“It was basically a decent performance from us, but decent is not enough. We need to be more aggressive, to be more compact on the pitch and be better in the tackles. We have the chance to implement all that next week.”
