Pep Guardiola's men hold a staggering 23-point lead at the top of the division with just nine games remaining - it is almost certainly a matter of 'when' and not 'if' they will be crowned champions.
And it could be this weekend that Bayern confirm the successful defence of the title they won back from Borussia Dortmund last season.
With Jens Keller's men hosting bottom club Eintracht Braunschweig and Dortmund travelling to mid-table Hannover, Bayern may be forced to wait a bit longer to celebrate another championship triumph.
Last Saturday's 2-1 win over Bayer Leverkusen extended their unbeaten league run to 50 games, while the last side to defeat Guardiola's charges in any competition were Manchester City in the Champions League on December 10 - 15 matches ago.
Thomas Tuchel's charges have lost just once in their past 11 Bundesliga outings and have not tasted defeat at the Coface Arena since a 3-1 reverse to Dortmund back in November.
The coach was in philosophical mood as his side prepare to take on a Bayern outfit who have won 17 Bundesliga matches in a row.
"If the little one wants to beat the great, then he does not do well in the classroom of the great, he lures him into a dark corner," he told the club's official website.
"We want to provide them with tasks. If they solve them, then we go over there and congratulate. Then no-one will be ashamed of us."
Cameroon international Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has been in impressive form of late, though, scoring four times in his past five appearances, and Bayern will need to be mindful of his threat if they are to kick-start their title celebrations.
