Our Tipster’s Angle

When two of the best teams in Germany face each other it is always a fascinating encounter. The advantage lies with the home team Bayern considering Dortmund’s subpar form in the league.

Tip 1: Bayern Munich To Win

Bundesliga giants Bayern look like they are going to add another league title as they have been in scintillating form in recent weeks. They have won five, drawn one, and lost only one match in their last seven league fixtures. A case for Bayern’s win gets even stronger when we look at their impeccable home record as they have won eight, drawn three and are unbeaten in the eleven matches. Borussia Dortmund’s record in recent fixtures at Bayern’s home stadium is awful. The last five league fixtures between the two sides have all resulted in a Bayern win and Borussia Dortmund has conceded 24 goals in five games. Hence it looks that Bayern would come out victorious at 1.62 odds available in the Casumo sportsbook.

Tip 2: Total goals Over 3.5

It is always a high-scoring encounter when these two sides are in action. Five out of the last nine Bundesliga matches that Bayern was involved had resulted in more than 3.5 goals. Borussia Dortmund coincidentally has the same record as five out of their last nine Bundesliga matches has resulted in more than 3.5 goals. Their head to head meetings tell a similar story as 30 goals have been scored in the last seven matches between the two sides  So it looks most likely that this would be a high scoring encounter at 1.75 odds available on Casumo sportsbook 

Conclusion

Both teams will be desperate to get the win at this key stage  Whereas a win for Bayern would help them maintain their top spot, Dortmund has to win to not lose ground in the top four race. It promises to be another tantalizing encounter between the two historically great teams in the Bundesliga. Summarizing a couple of bets mentioned above.

1. Bayern Munich To Win @ 1.62
