Bayern Munich vs RB Leipzig Betting Tips: BTTS and over 2.5 goals

After a disappointing fortnight with losses in their last three matches against Leverkusen (3:0), Lazio (1:0), and Bochum (3:2), Bayern Munich are set to return to the Allianz Arena on Saturday.

Following the announcement of Thomas Tuchel’s departure from the club at the end of the season, Bayern is now confronted with a critical match against RB Leipzig, a team capable of providing another challenging day for the German champions.

Currently trailing Leverkusen by eight points at the top of the division and with just 12 games left, Bayern cannot afford any more mistakes if they wish to keep their hopes alive of overtaking the league leaders.

Tuchel’s team has performed significantly better in home games. They have won ten and only lost one of their past 12 games at the Allianz Arena, which gives them a confidence boost. The only other home game that Bayern lost in the past year was against RB in May.

Leipzig enters this fixture on the back of a comfortable 2:0 victory over Monchengladbach last weekend. Currently sitting fifth in the division and trailing Bayern by ten points, Marco Rose’s team has had a patchy run of form, winning two but losing four of their last seven matches across all competitions.

RB has secured only one victory in their last six Bundesliga matches away from home. In five of those games, both teams scored (BTTS) and more than 2.5 goals were scored. Given Bayern’s recent difficulties, similar results can be anticipated in Saturday’s game.

Recent encounters between these teams have often resulted in high scoring matches. Both Teams to Score (BTTS) occurred in six of their last seven matches, and five of those matches had a minimum of three goals scored.

I´m backing BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored on Saturday in a game where both teams should have plenty of opportunities to score.
