Bayern Munich return for the winter break with eyes on first place in the Bundesliga.
The 11-time consecutive defending champions enter 2024 in second place, four points back of Bayer Leverkusen. Bayern can put some pressure on the leaders with a victory on Friday, as they'll host TSG Hoffenheim at the Allianz Arena to kick off Matchday 17 of the Bundesliga campaign.
Hoffenheim are seventh but drew and lost in their final two matches prior to the break, so they'll be eager to get back in the win column as they chase a European spot.
It won't be an easy task for the visitors, who have only won one league match at Bayern in 15 total attempts.
Here's how to watch.
