Player to watch – Eric Dier
Eric Dier put the gloss on Bayern Munich’s win over Mainz last weekend when he netted his team’s third goal late on in a 3-0 triumph, though the defender won’t be representing the champions-elect for much longer having set up a summer move to Monaco.

Dier will be determined to finish on a high
With a summer exit secured, Dier will be determined to sign off in style before leaving Munich and the experienced 31-year-old will hope to play with authority against RB Leipzig on Saturday.
