THE PREDICTION

Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich head into this latest round of Bundesliga fixtures in second and first place respectively, although that may not be the case by the time these two sides lock horns at the BayArena. The hosts have won their last three matches and will believe with home advantage in their favour, that they can upset the odds against the Bundesliga champions. Bayern Munich however, will be smarting after their shock defeat at home to Eintracht Frankfurt last time out and a reaction is expected from Julian Nagelsmann’s men. When taking into account the class of this Bayern team alongside their strength-in-depth from the bench, it’s hard to look beyond them bouncing back and overcoming Leverkusen.
