THE PREDICTION

Top of the table Bayern Munich take on third-placed Bayern Leverkusen in this crunch Bundesliga encounter at Allianz Arena, which sees both sides without a number of key players. Whilst Bayern are missing first-choice goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, Leverkusen cannot call upon their star striker, with Patrik Schick also ruled out through injury. Despite the absence of Schick, the visitors will still prove an extremely dangerous force going forward, as they showed last weekend when they sound beat Arminia Bielefeld 3-0. However, with Thomas Muller back in Bayern’s ranks, Julian Nagelsmann’s side are expected to come out of the traps quickly in front of a raucous home crowd. Whilst the sensible play would be to back a Bayern Munich win via the safety of the draw no bet market, both teams to score is widely expected and should be backed regardless of the overall outcome.
