Bayern Munich - RB Leipzig ai prediction 09.02.2020 Bundesliga

Betting Tip for matchday 21 of the 2019/2020 Bundesliga between Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig.

Bayern vs Leipzig

Bayern welcome Leipzig to the Allianz Arena in a top of the table clash that will close the curtain on matchday 21 of the German Bundesliga. Bayern currently lead Leipzig by a single point, and will be keen to extend the lead over their nearest challengers. Leipzig, on the other hand, will want to reclaim top spot, after holding the position just a few matchdays ago. This promises to be an exciting clash for both fans and neutrals. We take a look at both sides and also give you the best offers from 1xBet.

Bayern Munich

After the early season’s poor form, it would seem Bayern are back in full-flow. Interim manager, Hans-Dieter Flick, has done well to propel the Bavarians to the top of the league. In red-hot form they’ve won six consecutive matches in the league, winning five of those games by scoring three or more goals.

Overall, Bayern have accumulated 42 points from a possible 60, after earning 13 wins, three draws and four losses, scoring a staggering 58 goals and conceding 23 goals. They have performed adequately at home too, winning seven out of their 10 home matches. A single draw and two losses on home soil indicate that they are beatable at home. In those 10 matches, the Bavarians have scored 33 goals and conceded nine goals.

Speaking of goals, Robert Lewandoski has been in red-hot form this season, leading the goal scoring chart with 22 goals and three assists. Bayern’s last Bundesliga match was a 3-1 away win at Mainz, while their last competitive match was a 4-3 win over Hoffenheim at home in the DFB Cup third round. If there’s anything to take away from the win over Hoffenheim, it is that Bayern players are susceptible to losing concentration; they had led that match 4-1, before allowing two sloppy late goals that added to a nervy finish.

Leipzig

That Leipzig is still only a point behind Bayern at this stage, is a testament to how well Julian Nagelsmann’s men have played this season. Not only have they been able to win matches and gather points, but they’ve also done so playing good football and scoring plenty of goals. They have the third-best attack in the league with 53 goals scored. Their lead striker Timo Werner has scored 20 of those goals, and will definitely be a threat come Sunday evening.

In 20 matches this season, the Die Roten Bullen have won 12 matches, drawn five and lost three. Looking at their away form this season, Leipzig have the joint-best away record in the division, garnering 20 points from 10 away matches – six wins, two draws and two losses. In those 10 games, they scored 25 goals and conceded 13. However, they have not won any of their last two away games. They played 3-3 with Dortmund and lost 2-0 at Eintracht Frankfurt.

In recent weeks too, they’ve underperformed and are without a win in their last three competitive matches, and the last two Bundesliga games. Their last Bundesliga match was a 2-2 draw at home to title hopefuls Borussia Monchengladbach.

Bayern vs Leipzig Possible Lineup

Bayern have been rocked with the news of Ivan Perisic, who is set to be on the sidelines for at least the next month. Another of Bayern’s key players, Nicklas Sule, has been ruled out of this season too. That said, the seven-time Champions have the squad depth to deal with their absence.
