Bayern München - Heidenheim predictions

Bayern München have been installed as firm favourites by the best online bookmakers and anything but a home win in this match would be considered a huge upset.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Heidenheim, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 23.00.

Bayern Munich narrowly averted a disaster in their latest outing at Borussia Dortmund . They were considered heavy favourites going into that away game, but ended up having to play catch-up for most of the runtime. In the end, a 1:1 draw felt like a prize.

Heidenheim are coming on the back of a 0:4 defeat at home, which was painful but hardly unexpected. Not many Bundesliga betting predictions expected them to be able to stand up to Eintracht Frankfurt, and they fell behind fairly early.

The previous 3 times we saw Bayern play at home were marked by more than 5 goals from them. The visitors will need to be careful if they want to avoid conceding a lot of goals.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Heidenheim lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

The visitors are hoping to put some more distance between them and the relegation zone, which is currently only 5 points away. With a team like Bayern Munich coming up, though, that might be difficult. They’re clear underdogs in this matchup. Thankfully, the season is still in its early stages.

The Bavarians have a relatively recent victory on record against Heidenheim. It happened last season, but they managed to secure a hefty goal difference as well. With that in mind, their position as the favourites in this matchup makes a lot of sense.

Harry Kane, Josip Stanisic, Hiroki Ito will all have to sit this one out due to injuries, leaving the home team’s lineup in a weakened state. They still have an advantage according to betting prices, but it may not be as notable as it would have been otherwise.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.29, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
