Bayern Munich has been on a remarkable winning streak, securing seven consecutive victories in recent matches. Despite not having clean sheets in their last four outings, Bayern's offensive capabilities have overshadowed defensive lapses. The team has been scoring an impressive number of goals, highlighting their attacking strength. As they face Leverkusen, who have been inconsistent, Bayern Munich is favored to win once more, with expectations of the hosts scoring at least once. This trend suggests that while defensive improvements are needed, Bayern's attack remains formidable.

Bayern Munich look unstoppable across competitions and they will want to claim the domestic title as soon as possible. I will back them to beat Leverkusen with BTTS on Saturday. 

Key Stats  


  • Bayer Leverkusen have scored in 19 of their last 20 home matches. 
  • Bayern Munich have won their last 7 matches. 
  • Bayern Munich have seen BTTS in their last 4 matches. 

47-Year-Old Rivalry 


Bayern Munich have a 63-22 advantage against Bayer Leverkusen, 20 games ending without a winner. 

Leverkusen Behind in the Top 4 Race 


Bayer Leverkusen are coming off a disappointing 1-1 draw against Arsenal in the Champions League where they conceded equalizer just before stoppage time, Robert Andrich breaking the deadlock in the 46th minute. 

Speaking of their Bundesliga campaign, Kasper Hjulmand’s side is battling for Top 4 placement, currently sitting in 6th place with a three-point deficit from 4th Stuttgart. 

They opened this month with a 1-0 road win against Hamburg, Michael Kofane netting the winner, while settling for a 3-3 draw against Freiburg last weekend (conceding just before stoppage time). 

Bayern Close to Defending the Title 


Bayern Munich hold huge 11-point advantage over Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga title race with just nine rounds left to be played, scoring 92 goals while conceding just 24. 

A 3-2 win at Signal Iduna Park was a huge step toward defending the title, Joshua Kimmich netting the winning goal just before added time, while the Bavarians crushed Monchengladbach 4-1 at home last weekend. 

Vincent Kompany’s side is coming off arguably strongest appearance this season, humiliating Atalanta 6-1 in the Champions League mid-week playoff action. Michael Olise scored twice, Josip Stanisic, Serge Gnabry, Nicolas Jackson and Jamal Musiala also on target. 

Predicted Lineups & Team News 


Bayer Leverkusen (3-4-2-1) Janis Blaswich; Jarell Quansah, Robert Andrich, Edmond Tapsoba; Jonas Hofmann, Equi Fernandez, Aleix Garcia, Ernest Poku; Martin Terrier, Ibrahim Maza; Christopher Kofane 

One of Leverkusen’s best players Alex Grimaldo is serving a suspension. Lucas Vazquez, Mark Flakken, Nathan Tella and Loic Balde are injured. 

Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1) Sven Ulreich; Konrad Laimer, Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, Josip Stanisic; Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic; Michael Olise, Serge Gnabry, Luis Diaz; Harry Kane 

Manuel Neuer is still nursing a calf injury, while Alphonso Davies is also out with a hamstring strain. Hiroki Ito and Jamal Musiala are doubtful. 

Verdict

Bayern Munich have zero clean sheets in their last four outings, but won seven games in a row while scoring an absurd number of goals. I will back them to beat inconsistent Leverkusen with hosts netting at least once.
