THE PREDICTION

Bayern Munich’s shock defeat away at Augsburg before the international break means that they return under intense heat with the gap at the top of the Bundesliga now five points between them and Union Berlin. Three points accrued from the last 12 available says it all and anything less than victory vs Bayer Leverkusen could leave Julian Nagelsmann with some serious questions to answer. Leverkusen have also suffered a terrible start to the season domestically and lie outside the top three on goal difference only. They have nothing to lose here and won’t be afraid to take the game to Bayern, knowing the hosts are currently in a position of extreme vulnerability. With that in mind, both teams to score may well be on the cards as Bayern try to put in a strong attacking performance in-front of their own fans.
