Bayern München vs. Bayer Leverkusen Betting Odds and Info

Why bet on Bayern München?

Bayern wants to regain the German throne after not showing its best side last season. They were reinforced in a great way and started with all their power.

They started a bit tight, beating Wolfsburg 2-3 and then Freiburg 2-0, but in the last two games, they scored a lot of goals: 1-6 vs. Kiel and 0-5 against Bremen and also crushed Dinamo Zagreb 9-2 in the Champions League.

Their 16 goals are the best mark in the Bundesliga and here Harry Kane appears again, who already has five goals and four assists. The 31-year-old English striker is ready to win his first professional title. Last week he scored a goal and provided two assists in the league, and scored four in the Champions League, three of them from the penalty spot.

In addition to Kane, Michael Olise, one of the new faces, should be highlighted. The French striker has three goals and two assists. Last weekend against Bremen he was the star scoring two and providing two assists.

Vincent Kompany arrived and has yet to suffer his first defeat, even in friendlies, where he won four games and drew one. This team has not lost at home since March 10 against Borussia Dortmund (0-2).

Why bet on Bayer Leverkusen?

Bayer Leverkusen did not start the Bundesliga as well as last year, but they are still one of the main candidates for the title. They had a stumble at home against RB Leipzig (2-3) and had two last-second victories versus Borussia Monchengladbach (2-3), and Wolfsburg (4-3) last weekend, but that is something they are used to.

In the Champions League, they had no problems and easily defeated Feyenoord in the Netherlands by 0-4. Florian Wirtz continues to be the team’s star player, scoring four goals in the league and two in European competition.

But it should be noted that Victor Boniface is returning to his pre-injury level. Against Hoffenheim, he scored two goals and provided an assist (1-4), and now against Wolfsburg, he came on in the second half and scored the winning goal at 90+3 minutes.

Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen have not lost an away game in all competitions since May 27, 2023, against Bochum (3-0), in the last game of the 2022/23 season.
