Bayern Munich vs RB Leipzig Prediction, Betting Tips and Preview

Bayern Munich meet RB Leipzig in a televised BundesLiga match this Wednesday. Read the match predictions to find out why a home win is the betting tip at the Allianz Arena. Bayern come into this match on the back of a 0-1 win away to Darmstadt 98 while Die Bullen won 2-0 at home to Hertha Berlin last time out.

Bayern Munich vs RB Leipzig Preview

Bayern Munich will definitely be missing Jerome Boateng, so Javi Martinez should continue at centre-back. Rafinha will hope to continue on the right, if Philipp Lahm does not prove his fitness in time. Winger Kingsley Coman is also doubtful, so Douglas Costa will continue on the left, after his stunning strike to win at Darmstadt last time out (See video above).

RB Leipzig have no fresh injury concerns. The visitors can, therefore, name an unchanged side following the win over Hertha Berlin. Right-back Lukas Klostermann and on loan centre-back Papadopoulos are the long-term injuries in the squad.

Bayern Munich vs RB Leipzig Prediction

This is an extremely interesting match and is the first ever meeting between these clubs. Bayern Munich are the most successful side in BundesLiga history but are only ahead of newly promoted RB Leipzig on goal difference. The visitors have enjoyed a rapid rise through the divisions and are making a real fist of it in their debut top-flight season.

Bayern had much of the ball against Darmstadt but needed something special to find a breakthrough. However, this has the feel of being a much more open game and there should be chances a plenty for both sides. RB Leipzig have been fairly clinical in front of goal this season and I can see both teams getting on the score sheet here.

Home advantage and experience should see Bayern Munich through but RB Leipzig will certainly be up for this game. The visitors have a good record away from home, scoring in 7 of their 8 away games in the BundesLiga this season. I just feel the hosts have such strength in depth and can call in reinforcements from the bench if things aren’t going their way. Bayern will win but it might only be by the odd goal.
