Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich extended their point advantage to six points over Bayer Leverkusen after their rivals only drew against RB Leipzig. The Bavarians won 1-2 away at SC Freiburg, marking their fifth consecutive Bundesliga victory.
Bayern Munich also won 3-1 against Slovan Bratislava in the final Champions League round last Wednesday. Although their coach, Vincent Kompany, did not field the best lineup for that game, Bayern Munich easily won. Now, Bayern Munich will again play with their usual formation and players, so we should expect a dominant display against the Bundesliga minnows.
What else can we say about Bayern Munich? At home, they are an unstoppable force and have been unbeaten this season. They have won 8 of their 9 home games and have a fantastic goal difference of 30:6.
Holstein Kiel
Holstein Kiel played a brave 2-2 draw against favorites Wolfsburg last week, which gives them some confidence before this game. However, they remain second from the bottom and are unlikely to survive this season.
They will play without any pressure against Bayern Munich, but next week’s game against relegation rivals Vfl Bochum will be massive for them.
Poor Holstein Kiel has lost 13 of its 19 games this season, conceding twice or more in nine of its last ten Bundesliga matches.
The Betting Verdict
Exploring all betting markets for this game, I see no big value anywhere. Bayern Munich will surely win, but the odds are a joke. Bayern Munich won 1-6 in the first match in Kiel this season, and I think they will score a lot again.
However, there is one bet that intrigues me, and I think it has a good chance of landing at high odds. Betting on players is always risky, but if there is one player I would like to bet on in this game, that’s Harry Kane.
Kane will make his jubilee 50th Bundesliga appearance in this match. He has scored 53 goals in 49 games, scoring in almost every game he played. I am sure that he will score in this game, but if he scores twice, then we can have a nice payout.
My best recommendation for this match is to back Harry Kane to score two or more at tasty odds.
