Bayern Munich vs Paderborn Prediction & Betting tips
Already at the start of the game day, the current league leaders from Munich meet Paderborn at home. A game of opposites can be expected in the Allianz Arena because the best team meets a relegation candidate. Before the game Bayern vs. Paderborn show the betting odds how big the difference between the two teams is. A victory of the record champion is very likely, none of the well-known betting providers offers a odds of 1.10 or higher.
But there is also a certain risk of underestimation in the big role of favorites. Paderborn is not a bad team. And the Baumgart team played absolutely fearless, especially against the big teams, which was shown against Dortmund when they led 3-0 in Signal Iduna Park and ended up playing 3: 3.
The host around coach Hansi Flick must not take this opponent lightly and must call a concentrated performance shortly before the game against Chelsea in the Champions League to achieve a safe victory. Bayern is very strong offensively, Paderborn is at least aggressive and equipped with speed.
Bayern Munich :
These days, Bavaria is again radiating a kind of matter of course, as you know it from the best of times. Not everything is going well for the record champions, but the numbers speak a clear language.
The last competitive match defeat came on December 7 last year, since then only RB Leipzig have managed to even draw against FCB. Nevertheless, not everything that glitters is gold. A drop in performance against Mainz, Hoffenheim, Leipzig and Cologne was observed in the second half, which is difficult to explain.
The discrepancy between the performances of the first and second half was striking, but many games were decided early. However, the fact that the back-up protection was missing afterwards is a shortcoming. And precisely because the opponent from Paderborn can counter well, Bayern vs. Paderborn looked at the odds that both teams score at least one goal.

An early decision in the game against Paderborn is also important for the record champions this time, in order to conserve strength for the game against Chelsea. And that is exactly the point at which we have to start. The hectic second half meant that unnecessary paths had to be taken.
More possession of the ball, more rest on the ball and more phases in which you slow down and let the ball run are the key for Bayern. In any case, the statistics are encouraging: The record champions won 38 of 41 games against Bundesliga promoters.
There will be changes in the host’s lineup. Niklas Süle is still out, this also applies to Ivan Perisic and Javi Martinez. There are also yellow blocks from Benjamin Pavard and Jerome Boateng. The question now is whether Flick sees Odriozola as a right-back or orders Joshua Kimmich backwards. Boateng is replaced by Lucas Hernandez, Leon Goretzka is also an option in the center.
Paderborn :
Paderborn actually has no chance at all in the game against the leaders. Actually. Because already in the first leg the outsider proved that he could hurt the record champions. Paderborn lost, but only narrowly with 2: 3. This achievement should encourage the game in the Allianz Arena.
The table situation is less courageous. Paderborn holds the “Red Lantern” and is already six points behind the saving 15th place. After all, the relegation is in sight. In the 1: 2 defeat at home against Hertha BSC last weekend, Paderborn made too many mistakes on the defensive and invited the club from the capital several times.
The defensive with 47 goals conceded is a problem, only Werder and Mainz have an even worse record. That is also why before the game Bayern vs. Paderborn our tip that more than 3.5 goals are scored. For the current matchday, of course, we also have more tips for the Bundesliga in store!
It is interesting that both of the promoted point gains were generated abroad after the winter break. Paderborn played 1-1 at Schalke and even won 2-0 in Freiburg.
It should also be emphasized that Paderborn has the third best value in the Bundesliga with seven goals in the opening quarter of an hour. Bavaria is top here too, scored twelve times in the first 15 minutes. Anyone who scores at the start of the game on Friday evening can be followed in the livescore overview.
Paderborn coach Steffen Baumgart has to do without two players. Gerrit Holtmann is suspended, Abdelhamid Sabiri is unavailable due to an injury. Srbeny has recommended himself with his Joker goal against Hertha BSC, otherwise there should be no changes.
