Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich Prediction & Picks - Bundesliga
by Bradley Gibbs | in Bundesliga Picks
Saturday's late kick-off in the German Bundesliga will be a showdown between the two big dogs, the two teams battling it out for the league title. That's right, it's a game between reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen and regular title winners Bayern, who are looking to regain the crown so rudely (and unexpectedly) stolen from them last season.
As things stand, the hosts are lagging behind in the race for the Bundesliga title, with Leverkusen currently sitting eight points behind the league leaders, making this a must-win game for Xabi Alonso's men, who should fancy themselves to put up a serious fight here. Let's face it, they've been strong at home this season.
The visitors, out in front, know that winning this game would put them 11 points clear at the top, and would thus give them one hand on the title. Having scrapped to get the job done on the road in the UEFA Champions League during the week, Vincent Kompany's men should be feeling good, though their busy schedule means that they're having to do something of a juggling act at the minute. Will that play a part at BayArena? We'll soon find out.

Bayer Leverkusen - Bayern Munich: Form Analysis
The hosts were somewhat disappointingly held by Wolfsburg on the road last weekend, failing to score for the first time since misfiring away to Liverpool in the UCL back in early November, but they've been strong at home, so will likely fancy themselves to hurt a Bayern side that has had less time to prepare for this fixture.
Playing away to Celtic in the week wasn't exactly the best preparation for the visitors, who won't be as fresh as their hosts at BayArena, while we have seen Bayern wobble on the road at times during the current domestic season, most recently when losing to Mainz back in December.
