Bayern Munich v VfB Stuttgart live updates - latest Bundesliga score as Die Roten try to escape drop zone!

Kimmich tries to have a go from 18-yards out, but it hits Endo's outstretched leg and it goes straight into the arms of Muller in the Stuttgart goal.

Will this goal prove to be crucial in Die Roten's fight against the drop? Or will Bayern get back into this one?

Bayern should be in front! Pinball in the box results in Goretzka receiving the ball ten-yards out. But, he drags his shot wide!

Thomas Muller smacks the bar with an audacious effort from inside the box!

Kimmich collects and clips a pass to the right for Gnabry, who volleys into the danger zone. It's blocked, and there's Müller who attempts a scissor-kick but it comes back against the crossbar. Let-off for Stuttgart!

Bayern have reacted well.

What a start for Stuttgart! That could prove to be a huge goal. The 6,300 Die Roten fans in the stands are delighted.

Tiago Tomas lashes in a fantastic effort into the roof of the net from the edge of the box after getting the lay-off from Marmoush down the right byline. What a finish from the 19-year-old.

Marmoush races into the box, but Nianzou does enough to prevent a shot at goal.

Tanguy Nianzou is shown the first yellow card of the game.

Muller has his first action of game! Bayern move it quickly as Davies advances down the middle of the pitch before laying it off for Muller beside him. He then plays it forward for Gnabry, but Muller rushes out to make a good save.

Mavropanos then clears it for a corner.

Stuttgart almost in behind! Tomas is played in with a long ball, and he is clear of Bayern's notorious high line, but Neuer gets their first.

However, no goal there would've counted anyway as the offside flag goes up.

We are underway here at the Allianz Arena as VfB Stuttgart kick us off.

With 34 goals, the Pole is 10 clear of nearest pursuer Patrik Schick in his efforts to claim a fifth straight golden boot and seventh overall. He has 13 strikes in 19 career meetings with Stuttgart, including eight across his last five.

Kick-off is not long away now!

Bayern have lost just twice at home all season in the Bundesliga, and have won all but three of those matches.

With three straight wins and no defeats in six, Bayern Munich will be confident that they can finish off their home campaign with another victory.

Both sides have now taken to the Allianz Arena turf for their final preparations ahead of this big game.

It was not a good afternoon last time these sides played each other back in December, as Bayern emerged as 5-0 winners at the Mercedes-Benz Arena.

Serge Gnabry took all the plaudits that day after the winger scored a fantastic hat-trick and also made two assists.

Despite already sealing the title, Bayern Munich went down last weekend to a shock 3-1 defeat to Mainz at the Mewa Arena.

With two games left to play, Julian Nagelsmann's side will want to bounce back and finish the season strong. Today is also their last home game at the Allianz Arena, and the players will want to make sure that they can put in a performance for their fans.

For Stuttgart, just two points separate themselves from Arminia Bielefeld in the automatic relegation zone.

Die Roten have also been on a poor run, as they have no wins in their last five Bundesliga games.

Die Roten head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo has also named his starting lineup for Stuttgart in what is a big game at the bottom of the Bundesliga.

Stuttgart: Muller, Anton, Endo, Mavropanos, Kalajdzic, Karazor, Marmoush, Tomas, Fuhrich, Sosa, Ito.

Subs: Bredlow, Coulibaly, Millot, Thommy, Forster, Mangala, Beyaz, Bazzoli, Tibidi.
