Match facts

Bayern
• Ancelotti started his reign with eight consecutive wins before defeat at Atlético on matchday two. Bayern then suffered their first Bundesliga setback this season, being held 1-1 at home to 1. FC Köln. They also drew, 2-2 at Eintracht Frankfurt, on Saturday.

• Lewandowski, who came off the bench against Frankfurt, has scored 14 goals in his last 13 games for club and country. He has now scored 126 goals in 201 Bundesliga appearances (74/131 for Borussia Dortmund; 52/70 for Bayern).

• Kimmich has scored six goals in his last seven outings for Bayern.

• Rafinha's strike in the 3-1 triumph over FC Ingolstadt 04 on 17 September was his first for Bayern since 13 April 2013.

• Douglas Costa has made only three appearances this season because of hamstring and thigh problems.

• Holger Badstuber (13 February, ankle and muscular problems) has resumed team training and was on the bench against Frankfurt.

• Lewandowski struck his third hat-trick of 2016/17 as Poland beat Denmark 3-2 on 8 October. He headed an injury-time winner against Armenia three days later, making it 2-1. It was his 40th goal for Poland.

• Julian Green was on target for the United States in friendlies against Cuba (2-0, 7 October) and New Zealand (1-1, 12 October).

• Robben (ribs) and Javi Martínez (adductors) missed October's European Qualifiers because of injury. However, Robben started – and scored – against Frankfurt while Martínez is back in training.

• Franck Ribéry missed the Frankfurt game due to muscular problems and is not expected to return until the end of October.

PSV
• PSV are 22 matches unbeaten away from home in all competitions (W17 D5, including the 2016 Dutch Super Cup), since their 2-0 loss at VfL Wolfsburg on 21 October 2015, a matchday three fixture.

• Davy Pröpper has scored four goals in PSV's last five matches.

• Summer signing Siem de Jong lined up alongside brother Luuk for the first time at club level on 1 October as PSV drew 1-1 at sc Heerenveen. That result ended PSV's Eredivisie run of 13 straight away victories.

• Andrés Guardado (hamstring) and Luuk de Jong (concussion) suffered knocks against Heerenveen, ruling them out of international duty. However, De Jong played all of Saturday's 1-1 draw with Heracles Almelo and Guardado was an unused substitute. Luciano Narsingh also featured at the weekend despite returning early from Netherlands duty with a groin injury.

• Jorrit Hendrix (knee, out since 28 September) and Jürgen Locadia (groin, 28 August) have both been sidelined.
