McClaren's men handed Bayern opener
Steve McClaren will face a baptism of fire on the first weekend of the Bundesliga season with Wolfsburg scheduled to face Bayern Munich.
McClaren, who led FC Twente to the Eredivisie crown last term before making the switch to the Volkswagen Arena, will lead his side out against the champions at the imposing Allianz Arena on Friday, August 20.

Borussia Dortmund meet Bayer Leverkusen, Mainz host Stuttgart and Hannover take on Eintracht Frankfurt.
Last season's 2.Bundesliga champions Kaiserslautern face a trip to Cologne while fellow new-boys St Pauli go to Freiburg.
Nurnberg, who beat Augsburg in a play-off to retain their place in the top flight, visit Borussia Monchengladbach.
