Leipzig vs Bayern Munich – Betting preview
Leipzig Preview
The decision to replace Domenico Tedesco, who had a disastrous start to the season, with Marco Rose has paid off for Leipzig.
After being close to the relegation zone when he took over, they have only lost one league game under his management and are currently third in the standings.
Despite a disastrous 4-1 home loss to Shakhtar Donetsk early in the season, Leipzig successfully advanced through the Champions League group stage as well. Tedesco was in charge at the time.
They were able to advance thanks to a decisive victory over Shakhtar in the original match and a historic victory over Real Madrid. This victory started a run of six straight victories across all competitions before the break.
If you have been following the Bundesliga live scores over the course of the season, you may have noticed that Die Roten Bullen have not lost in 13 games since the beginning of October, 11 of which have resulted in victories.
Despite Bayern’s strength, the leaders may struggle here because they have the best home record in the Bundesliga, having won six and drawn one of their seven games at the Red Bull Arena!
Bayern Munich Preview
Bayern had gone four games without a victory in September, but two months later, they had won six straight league games to take the lead.
With 49 goals scored, Bayern has by far the most in the division and has established a record that everyone has come to expect in recent years.
Before the World Cup break, Julian Nagelsmann’s team scored an incredible 21 goals in their final four home games, winning all four games.
Leipzig may have the league’s best home record, but Bayern Munich has the league’s best road record, averaging over two points and nearly three goals per game!
There have been an astounding 50 goals scored in the 15 competitive matches between the teams over the last six years, with Bayern Munich’s memorable 5-4 victory here back in 2017 being a notable match. This game is typically exciting.
Bayern prevailed with a 5-3 victory to win the season’s first trophy in a thrilling matchup between the two teams earlier in the year in the German Super Cup.
