Game Preview
Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich will host RB Leipzig on Saturday at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany. Bayern are currently in 1st place with 68 points, while RB Leipzig are currently in 3rd place with 60 points in the league table. The hosts are aiming to win their 11th consecutive league title, to complete this task they have to win their last two games or hope Borussia Dortmund trip and lose points, as Dortmund is only one point away from Bayern. Leipzig cannot aim for the title anymore, so they will try to keep their 3rd place or at least finish in the top four to be able to play Champions League football next season.
Bayern Munich have been in good form in the league, winning 5 of their last 7 games. They are coming to this game with a 6-0 win against Schalke 04. With a one-point advantage over Borussia Dortmund, Bayern is in complete control of its own fate. A win for Thomas Tuchel’s squad on Saturday would imply that if Dortmund loses on Sunday, Bayern would once again win the Bundesliga. In fact, due to their significantly better goal differential, the defending champions would virtually clinch the title in Germany once more even if Bayern wins and Dortmund draws. Manuel Neuer, Lucas Hernández, Alphonso Davies and Josip Stanišić will not be available due to injury, while Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is still questionable for Thomas Tuchel’s side.
Let’s check the latest picks, Bundesliga news, stats and Bundesliga expert picks for Bayern vs RB Leipzig. We’ve plenty of Bundesliga predictions for you to consider.
On the other side, DFB Pokal finalists RB Leipzig have also been enjoying good form as they have won 7 of their last 8 games across all competitions. In their last game Leipzig defeated Werder Bremen 2-1. Leipzig has been so solid lately that they have only given up six goals in eight away games in 2023, a Bundesliga low. Only recently crowned Serie A champions Napoli have performed better in that regard among Europe’s top five leagues since the beginning of the year. The DFB-Pokal champions, who will attempt to successfully defend the trophy against Eintracht Frankfurt in the final next month, are now within reach of a Champions League spot. They can even lose their last 2 games and still play in Europe’s top competition if Wolfsburg lose to Freiburg on Friday. Péter Gulácsi is the only injured player in Leipzig.
