Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

• Leverkusen are unbeaten in their last 11 matches
• Bayern have failed to beat any of the Bundesliga’s top five
• Xabi Alonso hasn’t lost any of his four clashes with Bayern as Leverkusen manager

Can Bayern pass key test?

Vincent Kompany has Bayern Munich on course to restore their domestic dominance, as they’re seven points clear at the top of the Bundesliga. They’re unbeaten domestically, although they’ve struggled to pass the big tests to date.

Bayern have drawn all three of their clashes with sides in the top five of the Bundesliga, including their first encounter with Leverkusen. The visitors have yet to lose to Bayern under Xabi Alonso’s watch, having met the Bavarians four times.

Leverkusen have done incredibly well in bouncing back after the end of their unbeaten streak. The German champions lost to RB Leipzig in August, but they’re now unbeaten in 11 domestic games since that loss.

Leverkusen head into this clash having won their last three games and they’ll be confident of matching Bayern on Tuesday. The visitors can call upon in-form forward Patrick Schick, who has scored in four consecutive games, netting six times.

Schick also scored twice in the last round of the cup, as holders Leverkusen continued their push to retain the trophy. Given their fine form and Bayern’s issues edging out top sides, back the visitors to avoid defeat once again.
