Match Preview: Bayern Munich - Hansa Rostock
Soccernet.com

MUNICH, May 3 (Bundesliga) - Bayern Munich's fate is out of their hands, but they must win at home to Hansa Rostock in their final match tomorrow to have any chance of retaining the Bundesliga title.

Third-placed Bayern, who are seeking an unprecedented fourth successive Bundesliga crown, can only land the championship if leaders Borussia Dortmund and second-placed Bayer Leverkusen fail to beat Werder Bremen and Hertha Berlin respectively.

Bayern's main concern for the match is goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, who is having trouble shaking off a troublesome knee injury.

The problem arose during Bayern's last league match at Wolfsburg, but is not expected to prevent him playing tomorrow.

``I wouldn't exactly put a question mark against him just yet,'' said Bayern spokesman Markus Horwick.

Rostock have nothing to play for but pride. They are safe from relegation but are destined to finish in the bottom six.
