MUNICH, Germany :German champions Bayern Munich are ready to bounce back on Saturday against St Pauli from their first defeat of the season earlier this week, and protect their six-point advantage at the top of the Bundesliga.

The Bavarians' 18-match unbeaten streak across all competitions came to an end on Wednesday when they slumped to a 3-1 loss against Arsenal in London in the Champions League.

After starting the season by winning 16 consecutive matches, they have now won only one of their last three games.

Coach Vincent Kompany, however, is confident his players will waste no time in restoring order.
