Bayern Munich vs Paderborn Predictions

• Bayern Munich have kept a clean sheet in each of their last three Bundesliga home games.
• Paderborn have currently got the Bundesliga’s joint-lowest away goalscoring record.
• Bayern Munich have scored at least three goals in six of their last eight Bundesliga fixtures.
• Paderborn have failed to score in three of their last four games versus Bayern Munich. 

Bayern Munich in form

Bayern Munich will host Paderborn in this Friday’s German Bundesliga clash. This game will see the Bundesliga’s leaders, Bayern Munich, face off against the Bundesliga’s last-placed side, Paderborn. Bayern have been enjoying a particularly impressive run of form in recent weeks. 

Bayern are currently undefeated in each of their last eight Bundesliga games. Furthermore, they have won seven of their last eight Bundesliga fixtures. Bayern’s record of seven wins in their last eight games means they have earned at least two more wins than any other Bundesliga side in that time. 

In contrast to Bayern, Paderborn have managed to win just two of their last eight Bundesliga games, losing half their Bundesliga fixtures in that eight-game period. Bayern have earned at least six more points than any other Bundesliga side over the past eight games. However, they have earned 14 more points than Paderborn in that time.

Bayern’s impressive defensive record

Bayern Munich’s defence have been the Bundesliga’s joint-best this term. The German giants have conceded 24 goals in their 22 Bundesliga games. Only Borussia Monchengladbach have conceded as few goals as Bayern this season. 

Furthermore, Bayern have currently got the Bundesliga’s best home defensive record for the 2019/20 season. They have conceded just nine goals in their 11 Bundesliga home games. Bayern have been particularly impressive at the back in their last three home games and haven’t conceded a single goal in any of their last three Bundesliga home fixtures.

Bayern have conceded just four goals over the last eight Bundesliga games. This is at least five goals fewer than any other Bundesliga side have conceded in that time. Bayern’s impressive defensive record doesn’t bode well for a Paderborn side who have currently got the joint-worst Bundesliga away goalscoring record this season. 

Bayern may win this game convincingly

In addition to having the Bundesliga’s best defensive record, Bayern also currently boast the second-best goalscoring record in the Bundesliga for the 2019/20 season. The league leaders have scored an impressive 62 goals in their 22 Bundesliga games this season. Only Borussia Dortmund have scored one goal more than Bayern this season. Bayern have scored at least six goals more than the Bundesliga’s third-highest goalscorers going into this Friday’s game. 

Bayern have scored at least three goals in six of their last eight Bundesliga fixtures. Meanwhile, Paderborn have conceded at least two goals in 14 of their 22 Bundesliga fixtures this season. The visitors have also conceded at least three goals in each of their last five meetings with Bayern Munich. 

We feel Bayern will likely win Friday’s game convincingly, considering their impressive run of form in recent weeks, in addition to their impressive Bundesliga defensive record. Bayern may keep a fourth straight home Bundesliga clean sheet in this game. We are backing Bayern to win Friday’s Bundesliga fixture to nil. We also feel a 3-0 win for Bayern may be a likely scoreline.
