Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich Prediction & Betting tips
Saturday in the Bundesliga will end with a genuine cracker. Bayern Munich, the number two in the ranking, will visit Bayer Leverkusen, the current surprising leader. If Bosz’s team manages to beat the Munich team, then Leverkusen will really be a candidate for the national title.
Bayer Leverkusen:
Bayer Leverkusen retained the lead in the midweek round that had taken over from Bayern Munich in the previous weekend. Das Rhein-Derby against neighbor 1. FC Köln was on the program for Leverkusen. Bayer had no qualms whatsoever with Köln, which was trumped by Peter Bosz’s team on all fronts. After ninety minutes there was a big 0-4 on the scoreboard, and that was not even flattering. Die Werkself is the current leader of the Bundesliga, one point ahead of Bayern and RB Leipzig.
‘It was really a super game on our part,’ Bosz was delighted after the derby won in Cologne. “We played good football, with a lot of energy and great goals.” One of the goalscorers was right-back Mitchell Weiser, who was allowed to start at the place of the injured Lars Bender. If the latter has not recovered in time, Weiser will also start in the base on Saturday. Daley Sinkgraven got a rest on Wednesday, but could be in the starting eleven of Bosz against Bayern. Leverkusen has not had good experiences with home games against Bayern this calendar year. Both in the league and in the DFB Pokal, the Bavarian club lost 2-4 in the BayArena last season.
Bayern Munich:
Bayern Munich managed to win in the midweek round, just like Leverkusen. However, Bayern had a lot more difficult than the list leader. Der FCB took it in-house against the until then unbeaten VfL Wolfsburg. The team from Munich fell behind Wout Weghorst’s team, but Hansi Flick’s team came back. Wolfsburg was eventually beaten 2-1 by a Doppelpack from Robert Lewandowski.
For Lewandowksi, it’s been a great week so far, as one day after his two goals in the match against Wolfsburg, the Polish goalgetter was named FIFA’s Player of the Year. There is little to argue. Lewandowski has been in absolute top shape for quite some time. Undeniably, he played a key role in winning both the Champions League and the league title. Flick will count on his Polish center forward again on Saturday, in the top match in Leverkusen.
