Bayer Leverkusen - Bayern München betting tips and odds

Bayer Leverkusen are the definition of underdogs in this fixture. With betting odds of 5.00, no punter will dare backing them up against Bayern München. It is a wise decision as well as hosts will have an extremely difficult task surviving this clash.

Considering the balance of power in this match, it seems that a draw may be the extent of the home team’s ambition. The Bavarians are at a clear advantage, which is reflected in the 1.60 odds for an away win 1X2 bet.

The home team locked 3 points last round thanks to a narrow victory while visiting Werder Bremen. The match mostly went just like the 3.50 away win betting odds expected – though they failed to gain an upper hand in the early game, Bayer Leverkusen eventually pulled ahead in the second half.

The Bavarians never really broke a sweat against Augsburg as they recorded a pretty straightforward 5:3 victory last time out in the Bundesliga. Having taken an early lead in the first half they only brought it home for a rather convincing and morale-boosting win.

Leverkusen tend to concede quite a lot when playing at home, strangely enough. For example, the ball ended up in their net more than 5 times over the course of their latest 3 home games.

The records show a rather unimpressive away game track record for Bayern. They’ve allowed more than 5 times in their latest 3 away outings.

It’s clear that Bayern Munich are the favourites in this matchup, and they have the numbers to back that up. They faced Team from Leverkusen earlier this season and snagged a decisive victory which they’ll be looking to repeat.

The visitors may be expected to win, but they’ll have to do so without Manuel Neuer, Lucas Hernández, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting. This tips the scales slightly in the hosts’ favour, but not by much.

An Over 3.5 Goals is the best option for this fixture, though it’s not perfect by any means. That said, the notable risk of failure is worth it due to the considerable betting value that can be found in the 1 odds.
