Bayern has won only two of their last five matches across all competitions. In RB Leipzig's last five games, more than two goals were scored in each. Last season, Bayern defeated RB Leipzig 2-1 at home, while the match at the Red Bull Arena ended in a 2-2 draw.

Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich, as expected of the club, is leading the Bundesliga and remains the main favorite to claim the Meisterschale. After 14 rounds, the Munich side has accumulated 33 points, but Bayer Leverkusen is close behind. The gap between first and second place is only 4 points, making it crucial for Vincent Kompany’s team not to drop points in the match against RB Leipzig.

The previous Bundesliga round turned into a shocking upset for Bayern. In an away match against Mainz, the team suffered its first league defeat of the season, losing 1-2. Moreover, Bayern managed only one shot on target throughout the match, which resulted in Leroy Sané’s goal. However, Harry Kane was absent in that game, though he has since returned to training. Prior to this, Bayern demolished Heidenheim 5-2 and drew 1-1 in Der Klassiker against Borussia Dortmund.

At the same time, Bayern has already been eliminated from the DFB-Pokal, losing 0-1 to Bayer Leverkusen. In the Champions League, Bayern earned 12 points in 6 matches and currently sits in 10th place overall. In their most recent Champions League game, they thrashed Shakhtar Donetsk 5-1.

RB Leipzig

Not long ago, RB Leipzig seemed like Bayern’s main challenger for the title, but a series of setbacks has dropped the “Bulls” to fourth place, with a 6-point gap to the leaders. Speculation about Marco Rose’s dismissal had begun to circulate in the media, but the coach has managed to stabilize the situation in recent matches.

In the last Bundesliga round, RB Leipzig secured a hard-fought 2-1 home win against Eintracht Frankfurt. Before that, the “Bulls” comfortably defeated Holstein Kiel 2-0 away but suffered a shocking 1-5 loss to Stuttgart.

Things are much worse for Marco Rose’s team in the Champions League, where they lost all six group stage matches and were eliminated from playoff contention.

Prediction

Bayern is the favorite in this game, but Manuel Neuer is injured, and defensive issues have worsened in recent matches. My prediction: both teams to score, with odds of 1.60.
