Betting Tips
Bayern Munich and current leader Bayer Leverkusen will square off for the top spot in the Bundesliga. With Leverkusen on 52 points and Bayern on 50, matchday 21 will take place in the BayArena on Saturday.
Even if the hosts are astonishingly unblemished in their thirty competitive games, a loss here would mean nothing. Although they won the DFB semifinal on Tuesday, will they be pushed to the limit this weekend? Bayern would be happy to believe that, as a victory would put them back in the lead.
Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich
Bayer Leverkusen is still undefeated in all leagues as they push forward at the top of the Bundesliga standings. They are riding high after winning seven of their previous eight games, drawing the other one.
They have also won five of their past six league games, but three of their last eight Bundesliga games have ended in draws, raising the possibility that they are susceptible. It may be cause for concern that two of those draws have occurred here at this location and in their last four league games. However, Alonso’s team has the best opportunity because a victory here would give them a five-point advantage at the top of the standings.
Leverkusen won 3-2 in the DFB Pokal in midweek and are still unbeaten in all competitions this season, a run which now stands at a massive 30 games.
In any season, fifty would have been a fantastic score for any team, and Bayern Munich is only two points behind their hosts. That is really the highest after 20 matchdays for a team in second place. Although they had won three straight games going into this one, the Bavarians had dropped their previous two league outings. They are by no means unbeatable in this campaign, as evidenced by their losses to Werder Bremen and Eintracht Frankfurt. Bayern has been outstanding overall, but the loss to Eintracht came on the road.
Verdict
Under Xabi Alonso, Bayer Leverkusen has been an unbelievable force, carving out a piece of Bundesliga history for themselves this season. The hosts will need to prepare for what is likely to be the most significant game of their season after holding Bayern Munich at bay thus far in the title fight.
Although Bayern Munich has performed their share this season, they have not kept up with one of the top teams in Europe in the domestic standings. This weekend, both sides have the potential to be deadly on their best days and end in a thrilling draw.
The BayArena will be rampant and Bayern have multiple key injuries to mitigate, but the visitors have been here before. They may have struggled to find their apex this season, but they know what it takes to win these sorts of games.
