Bayern Munich vs Dusseldorf Prediction & Betting tips
Do you remember the Bundesliga season 2010/2011? At that time, Borussia Dortmund under Jürgen Klopp chose for the first time after nine years for the German champions and was the first pursuers not about Bayern behind, but Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The Munich had meanwhile be content with Louis van Gaal or in the last five games with Andries Jonker on the sidelines with the third place. This disappointing end placement was due to the devastating start, from which the record champion did not recover. In the current season, the FCB again has a cold start behind. If it was just exactly eight years ago just 16 points after eleven matchdays (rank nine), the team of coach Niko Kovac is currently at least 20 counters, which, however, only reach fifth place.
The gap to leaders Dortmund has now grown to seven points, so Manuel Neuer, Mats Hummels and Co. should allow no further slips until the winter break. In the home game of Bayern against Dusseldorf, the odds imply a clear favorite role of the reigning champion. The guests from the Rhineland are currently on the penultimate place in the table, but said goodbye with an eminently important 4: 1 win against Hertha from Berlin in the international break. With the collected self-confidence the Funkel-Elf wants to fight the Champions League starter for a long time and even in the case of a defeat, these results technically as possible in the frame. For the match Bayern vs.. Dusseldorf is our forecast therefore that the Bayern enter a sovereign threesome, but do not land a runaway victory. Because the Munich team has never scored more than three goals per match in the current season (Super Cup excluded) and the lightness of the last few years has not returned yet, we decided on a tip for it during the 12th matchday between Bayern and Dusseldorf that the FCB leaves the place as a winner, but a total of four hits in this game fall. The kick-off in the Allianz Arena takes place on Saturday afternoon, 24.11.2018, at 14:30.
Bayern Munich :
It is almost grotesque to say that the Bayern showed their best performance so far in the away game before the international break at Borussia Dortmund and yet pulled the short straw with 2: 3. If the people of Munich have been credited with a good performance on a national level over the past few years, then in virtually all cases this also meant that the record champion emerged victorious as the winner. In Signal Iduna Park, however, the officials had to admit that there is currently at least one team in the Bundesliga with BVB, which not only plays more attractive football, but also delivers much better results.
As fifth in the table, the team of coach Niko Kovac, who is still not without controversy in the entire environment at Säbener road, currently a whopping seven points behind the Black and Yellow, who conceded no defeat in the entire season, while the South German already lost three times. Many experts also expect that the champion of the previous year in the coming weeks and months back to the old strength and consequently return to the top of the table, but in view of the not wegzudiskutenden uncertainty is already a certain amount of optimism and confidence to to follow this assessment.
The disappointment after only two wins in the recent seven Bundesliga games on Saturday afternoon is not playing a major role when traveling with Fortuna Dusseldorf one of the hottest relegation candidates in the city on the Isar. The Bavarians are undefeated since eight direct duels against the Rhinelander and also won the last four with an impressive goal difference of 15: 2. These historical results may also be one of the reasons why Bavaria and Dusseldorf are relatively low on odds. At a closer look at this year’s performances, however, we must state that the FCB does not show the enthusiasm or dominance of the past few years. If we exclude the little meaningful 5: 0 in the Super Cup against Eintracht Frankfurt in August, then the star ensemble of the Säbener Straße will not get more than three hits in 90 minutes in any of the 17 competitive matches. Even against the regional leagues Drochterseen / Assel and Rödinghausen, the Kovac-elf was surprisingly difficult and cheated itself to tight victories. Despite the qualitative differences that are evident between the championship contender and the newly promoted, our Bayern vs. Dusseldorf forecast more in the direction of a work victory of the home side.
In terms of personnel, the German Croat Kovac will continue to be without Corentin Tolisso, Kingsley Coman, James Rodriguez and Thiago Alcantara. Arjen Robben returned to the team training last after surviving injury, but should take maximum place on the bench. Niklas Süle could slip into the starting lineup for Mats Hummels, while Lewandowski still has a small question mark in the attack. Should the Pole fail or be spared for the Champions League match on Tuesday against Benfica Lisbon, this would be another argument to try it between Bayern and Dusseldorf with our tip. For Lewy’s personal statistics, it would also be bitter, because against 17 of the current Bundesliga scored the multiple top scorer already a goal. Only Fortuna Dusseldorf is missing in this list.
Dusseldorf:
If you ask ten people in the street for the two safe relegated from the Bundesliga these days, at least nine would say ‘Fortuna Dusseldorf’. We confidently put this thesis into the room and justify it with the previous performances of the climber. With five points on the first four matchdays (one win, two draws, one bankruptcy), the Rhinelander were still very well started, but in the following weeks it hailed six defeats in a row. As part of this negative series had goalkeeper Michael Rensing, who is known to have a Munich past, equal to 18 times behind him. In return, the Funkel-Elf scored only one goal. Perhaps the clear clapping in Nuremberg (0: 3), Frankfurt (1: 7) and Mönchengladbach (0: 3) is an explanation for the fact that a clear defeat is also expected between Bayern and Dusseldorf. However, hope for a surprise should make the recent appearance just before the international break. At home against Hertha BSC Fortuna won after a strong performance with 4: 1 and left so for the first time since the seventh matchday the last place in the table. Even in the promotion season 2017/2018, the Düsseldorfer celebrated no such high victory. So the confidence has returned and the training weeks during the stoppage phase, in which the relegation candidate does not send as many players on international duty trips as the Bavarians, could be effectively used to work out a plan on how to break the favorites.
Coach Friedhelm Funkel, who meets as a player or coach for the 47th time in the Bundesliga on the record champions, in any case, emphasizes that you do not travel to Munich to cancel the game there. The oldest coach of the highest German league is aware of the gravity of the task, but will try to keep the encounter open as long as possible with a defensive approach.
That they can do this proved the Fortuna on Matchday 1 at 1: 1 in Leipzig or two weeks later at 0: 0 in Stuttgart. Although these were the only two point wins in the foreign, the defeats were higher abroad than they would have failed. Especially in the 0: 3 in the Rhenish derby at Borussia Mönchengladbach, provided only a controversial penalty shortly after the half for the leadership of the table second. The longer the Düsseldorfer manage to hold on to zero, the greater the likelihood that the Kellerkind can provide a surprise. Because the promoted won none of the seasonally past 19 guest appearances in the Bundesliga, we would not bet on a sensational coup of the underdog. However, we also do not believe in dismantling, especially as the Fortuna will certainly choose a very defensive orientation and focus primarily on defending. Add to that our assumption that in the case of a high level of leadership, Bayern will possibly reduce one or two courses. Incidentally, it is unlikely that Rouwen Hennings, Dodi Lubebakio and Co. will score in the Allianz Arena. In the past five away games, the newly arrived namely only twice.
Raphael Wolf, Diego Contento, Andre Hoffmann and Marcel Sobottka will not be available for injury. Most of the Hertha start-up will probably be back on the pitch from the start. The doubles scorer Benito Raman would be a possible alternative on the outside. Defender Kaan Ayhan, who was beaten back by the Turkish national team and in any case moved last time in a form-low, is again the bench-press. Marcin Kaminski and Robin Bormuth get the advantage in the back four, which could well form a ball of five of Bayern also to a five-string.
