Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

• Both teams have scored in 12 of the last 14 meetings
• Over 3.5 goals has landed in six of the last 11 rivalries
• Bayern have lost only one of their last 25 home league games

Bayern and Leverkusen set to delight

There is an early top-of-the-table clash to look forward to in the Bundesliga on Friday evening as Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen put their 100 per cent records on the line at the Allianz Arena.

The pair have each won their opening three league games and they have been in free-scoring touch, suggesting the entertainment levels should be high in a crunch clash in Munich.

Bayern have netted nine times in recording wins over Werder Bremen, Augsburg and Borussia Monchengladbach while Leverkusen have struck 11 times in seeing off the challenge of Leipzig, Gladbach and Darmstadt.

Both have a new striking recruit that has hit the ground running with Bayern’s Harry Kane grabbing three in three and Leverkusen’s Victor Boniface notching four times in three starts since making the summer switch from Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.

Free-scoring attacks set to shine

With both defences having been breached in two of their three league encounters, expect the attacking flair to continue and both teams have scored in 12 of the last 14 rivalries.

Bayern were 4-0 victors at home to Leverkusen in the Bundesliga last season and, while a repeat result may be beyond them given the visitors’ fine form, over 3.5 goals has obliged in six of the last 11 league meetings.

But Bayern have lost only one of their last 25 home league games so they must hold the aces at the Allianz Arena against a Leverkusen side that have taken only four points from their last eight league meetings with the Bavarians.

Correct-score punters can opt for a 3-1 home win, which was the scoreline in Bayern’s opening home game with Augsburg.
