BETTING PREVIEW

They may be through to the QF but that was a humiliating loss for Bayern Munich, who have run away with the Bundesliga title and made it a habit of crapping on every team they meet. For the first time since very early last year, they were blanked at home, beaten 2-0 by Arsenal. The fans booed, and Bayern have an ego that will need mending.

This game against Bayer Leverkusen is no gimme. Everyone expects Bayern to bounce back with a big win, but they have not had an easy time of late. The 2-0 home loss to Arsenal came after a very wobbly 3-2 home win against Dusseldorf where they fell behind twice before somehow snatching the win.

Leverkusen is no easy place to win. They have 9 wins, 2 draws and just a solitary loss here, against Dortmund. Even in that match, they were full of life, clawing back to level from 0-2 down, only to them concede quickly and lose it by the narrowest of margins. Leverkusen are good value to get something out of this.

Bayern have won 11 of their 12 away games so far, with just 1 draw, and should they win this they will become the first Bundesliga team to win 12 away games in a season. At home, they have just 1 loss, and it came against this very team. Leverkusen won 2-1 In Munich back in October.

Leverkusen have won the last 2 meetings with Bayern, winning 2-1 away this season and 2-0 at home last season. In fact, the last 3 home games have seen Bayer Leverkusen avoid defeat, and I think they will be way, way more up for this game that Bayern, who will be exhausted and thinking about the upcoming tie with Juventus.

THE BETTING VERDICT

Of course, I don't want to bet against Bayern, because they are capable of special things if given a chance. But, the league leaders are suddenly conceding goals, allowing 2 in each of their last 2 games. Perhaps we should bet on the home team to score a few?

I'll take a chance on early goals. Leverkusen will go for it, and maybe we get some help from Bayern too. Go for the 1st half overs.
