Football Leagues To Avoid When Placing Accumulator Bets

3y ago

Having secured a hard-fought victory in the league on Saturday, Bayern Munich inched closer to their ninth successive league title. With a hand already on the title, the reigning Champions will hope to fend off their challengers with the other, as the season comes to a close.

Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen will be expected to be on their toes till the end of this campaign, as they chase down continental qualification. As evident in recent results, they have shown signs of improvement, and will aim to continue this resurgence when they travel to Munich on Tuesday.

Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen Team News

Bayern Munich, who are the current champions of Europe, were knocked out of the Champions League by an inspired Paris Saint-Germain last Tuesday. Despite winning the second leg by 1-0, they were at an away-goal disadvantage, having lost the opening leg at home by a 3-2 scoreline. Hence, their elimination from the competition at the quarter-final stage.

With the disappointment of their elimination still fresh on their minds, Bayern Munich had to shift their attention to business on the domestic front - their defence of the league title. As earlier mentioned, the Bavarians claimed a hard-fought 3-2 victory at Wolfsburg. Jamal Musiala and Eric Choupo-Moting were both on the scoresheet for the visitors, with the former grabbing a brace on the afternoon.

Having accrued an impressive total of 68 points from 29 league games, Bayern Munich currently occupy the top spot. Furthermore, they boast a seven-point buffer over RB Leipzig who dropped points in their 0-0 stalemate with Hoffenheim on Friday night.

Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen seem to have their season back on track, having endured a rough spell since the turn of the year. Currently on a three-match unbeaten run, they will be hoping to stretch this streak by a game, at least.

In their last outing, Bayern Leverkusen clinched a 3-0 victory over Koln at the BayArena. Despite conceding majority of ball possession to the visitors, Leverkusen were as clinical as ever, with Leon Bailey notching a brace, and Moussa Diaby also getting in on the act.

It must be said that, since taking over from Peter Bosz, Hannes Wolf has impressed as interim manager at Die Werkself's dugout. And the possibility of securing continental football for next season can't be completely ruled out, as they continue to stake a claim for one of the European qualification spots.

A glance at both side's performance in the reverse fixture which ended in a 2-1 victory for Bayer Munich, will give an insight of what to expect in this mouthwatering tie at Allianz Arena. Having suffered the first of their eight league defeats so far this term at the hands of Bayern Munich, Leverkusen will surely aim for a win this time around.

Injured or Suspended Players

Bayern Munich: Corentin Tolisso, Douglas Costa, Robert Lewandowski, Niklas Sule, Serge Gnabry, Marc Rosa and Leon Goretzka.
Bayer Leverkusen: Paulinho, Santiago Arias, Julian Baumgartlinger, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Jonathan Tah and Marcel Johnen.

Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

One of the major talking points, since Hannes Wolf took over, is the effectiveness of Leverkusen’s new defensive shape, making them a stronger defensive outfit than they have been earlier in the season.

In fact, they have conceded just once in their last three league games, but how they intend to shut out the highest-scoring side in the German top-flight remains to be seen. We expect both teams to hit the target, with no less than two goals on the scoresheet.
