Good afternoon from the Eurosport team. Today, we've got live commentary from FC Bayern against Mainz at the Allianz Arena. Tweet me @rossdunbar93 with your views, or drop us a comment. Can Mainz pick up a first win in six and derail Bayern's title bid? Or will it be easy streak for Pep Guardiola?

42'
Actually, Alaba is playing in central-defence.
42'
We've got an immediate change actually. Dante has gone off and replaced by Alaba. Contento will move into the left centre-back role.
41'
Tick-tock, still nothing in the way of really good opportunities. Alaba and Gotze warming up behind the goal.
39'
Dante is receiving treatment on his right-ankle after a pretty hefty challenge. He limps off the park - but seems okay.
Cheeky, cheeky, Lucas ...
38'
Another offside for Mainz. Nicolai Muller this time.
He needs to do something.
36'
Oh, nervous times for Bayern there. Shawn Parker really has a fantastic change of pace, cutting inside and his shot loops over Manuel Neuer's crossbar. That looked a corner, but goal-kick given.
34'
Reactive volley at the edge of the box from Arjen Robben. Ball broke to him kindly, but under pressure so quickly. Quite a fair bit wide.
34'
Philipp Lahm bursting his gut to break into the box and wins a corner-kick. Excellent midfield play from the skipper.
33'
32'
Schweinsteiger pulls the trigger from 35 yards out, blocked by Nicolai Muller. Can we count that as a shot?
30'
Half an hour gone, 0-0. Mainz pretty comfortable. Not enough from Bayern to create anything.
29'
Excellent overlap from Diego Contento. First time we've seen that today.
26'
First quarter of the game, you'd say the concers for Guardiola will be tempo. Little interchanging, like we saw against Man City or Leverkusen, and little wing-play. Robben hardly on the ball.
21'
Bastian Schweinsteiger free-kick, curled in with his right-foot and met by Dante's head. Over the crossbar, but the first REAL shot on goal. The statistics say two off target for Mainz, alongside that. Not convinced, personally ...
20'
Offside on Shawn Parker. Not for the first time today.
19'
Manuel Neuer gathers .... and then fouled by Nicolai Muller in FIFA '99 style.
18'
Break and corner-kick for the away side. Pospech with a very ambitious deep cross from about 45 yards, aimed for Choupo-Moting. Booted out by Rafinha.
15'
Already over 150 passes from FC Bayern. Philipp Lahm involved in the most pass combinations with Dante, Rafinha, Kroos and Schweinsteiger respectively.
