Bayern Munich v Ingolstadt Preview: Champions seek return to winning ways

Bayern Munich's unbeaten start to the Bundesliga season came to a shuddering halt at Borussia Monchengladbach last weekend, but they will be looking to get back on track when Ingolstadt visit the Allianz Arena.

Second-half goals from Oscar Wendt, Lars Stindl and Fabian Johnson sent Bayern 3-0 down at Borussia Park on Saturday, before Franck Ribery came off the bench to score a late consolation.

Ribery's return salvaged a positive for coach Pep Guardiola, with the French winger having not featured since March thanks to a persistent ankle injury.

Ribery came through that cameo appearance unscathed and managed 45 minutes in Wednesday's 2-0 win at Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League as he nears match fitness.

That win in Croatia - which wrapped up a group campaign that saw Bayern finish top - will have helped the healing process after last weekend's disappointing loss, but Guardiola will be keen for his side to re-assert themselves domestically against Ingolstadt on Saturday.

After a promising start to life in the top flight, Ingolstadt's form has taken something of a turn for the worse of late.
