Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich again received criticism for their uninspiring 0-1 win over Borussia Monchengladbach, with a questionable penalty goal scored deep in the second half. However, they had 76% ball possession in that game, so a win is a win, regardless of how ugly it turns out to be.
Bayern Munich has maintained their four-point advantage over Bayer Leverkusen at the top but cannot relax. That last win against TSG Hoffenheim was Bayern Munich’s eighth win from the last ten Bundesliga matches.
So far, Bayern Munich’s only defeat this season came away at Mainz a few weeks ago. Yet, they are still the best away team in the Bundesliga, with six wins and two draws in nine games.
TSG Hoffenheim
TSG Hoffenheim’s players looked visibly shaken after the final whistle of their last game against Wolfsburg. The 0-1 home loss was painful, dragging them into the relegation fight.
That defeat was TSG Hoffenheim’s fifth winless match in a row (two draws, three defeats). I don’t think they will do anything better in this game, so perhaps they should save their strength for the highly important game against Holstein Kiel next weekend.
TSG Hoffenheim has collected 14 points so far, with only four of those at away stadiums. They are one of the rare German sides without a single away win this season, drawing four and losing three of their seven away games.
The Betting Verdict
Bayern Munich has a record of 20 wins, 7 draws, and only 5 defeats in their Bundesliga duels against TSG Hoffenheim.
In recent seasons, Bayern Munich remained unbeaten in five of the last six matches against TSG Hoffenheim (three wins, two draws), but remember that TSG Hoffenheim shockingly won their most recent duel with 4-2 in May of this year.
Bayern Munich should take this game more seriously after barely beating Borussia Monchengladbach with a penalty goal last weekend. A proper reaction is expected, and I think they will solve the game in the first half. Back the Bavarians to win both halves at fair odds.
