Match Stats

Bayern Munich is currently in the midst of a crisis after a string of disappointing results. Their woes began with a 3-0 loss to Leverkusen, followed by a lackluster performance in a 1-0 defeat to Lazio in the Champions League. The situation worsened with a shocking 3-2 loss to Bochum, likely ending their Bundesliga title hopes. This marks their worst run in years, prompting manager Thomas Tuchel to announce his departure at the end of the season.


RB Leipzig suffered a similarly difficult run of form recently which saw them drop out of the top four in the standings. The team lost three straight in the Bundesliga in the month of January with defeats to Frankfurt, Leverkusen and Stuttgart. They’ve since been able to right the ship with seven points from their last three league fixtures, the most recent of which finished in a 2-0 home win over Monchengladbach last weekend. The result also saw Die Roten Bullen bounce back after a 1-0 home loss to Real Madrid in the Champions League round of 16. Leipzig have been much stronger at home this season where they average 2.17 points per contest, compared to an average of just 1.40 average points per away match.


Bayern Munich can ill-afford any more slip-ups in the Bundesliga if they are to keep their slim hopes of retaining the title alive, but that is easier said than done against a Leipzig outfit who have fared well against the Bavarians in recent meetings.

Indeed, Die Roten Bullen are no pushovers for Bayern, and taking into account the contrasting moods within the two camps, we believe that the visitors will find a way to frustrate the hosts and claim a share of the spoils in an entertaining score draw.


Prediction: Bayern 2-2 RB Leipzig
