Bayern Munich vs Union Berlin Betting Tips: Bayern and Over 2.5 Goals
Since the last Bundesliga encounter between these sides in February, a lot has transformed. The previous match between Bayern and Union in February was perceived as pivotal in deciding the title. However, this season, Union is heading to Munich grappling with relegation issues.
After securing their inaugural Champions League qualification, Union has significantly deteriorated, arriving in Munich after failing to win in 16 consecutive matches in all competitions. The dismissal of Urs Fischer a few weeks ago was a surprising yet inevitable outcome considering the Berlin-based club’s recent success.
Union, currently second from the bottom of the Bundesliga with a mere seven points, have somewhat salvaged their record by drawing three of their last four matches. Their previous victory, a 4:1 triumph over Darmstadt in August, now seems like a distant memory.
The Berliners, in their travels, have drawn two and lost seven of their last nine away matches, following their midweek stalemate against Braga.
Bayern, despite their unexpected goalless draw against FC Copenhagen in the UCL, enter Saturday’s match. The Bavarians have already confirmed their position as group winners, but Thomas Tuchel’s team struggled to break through the solid Danish defence.
Bayern has effortlessly dominated their opponents on the home front this season. With ten victories in their last 12 Bundesliga matches, Tuchel’s team has already racked up an impressive 43 goals.
Ultimately, I expect the champions to bounce back from their midweek malaise with a comfortable victory against a still low-on-confidence Union. I´m backing a home win with at least three goals scored &— an outcome witnessed in five of Bayern´s last six wins against Union.
