Bayern Munich faces Hoffenheim
Bayern Munich faces Hoffenheim at the Allianz Arena in a match from the 9th round of the Bundesliga. Here’s a good tip from us – don’t stop reading because our football betting tips this weekend are coming!
Bayern Munich are looking like their old selves – they surprisingly lost against Eintracht Frankfurt before the break, but in the next game they scored five goals and stole the show. Julian Nagelsmann’s team faced Bayer Leverkusen away from home and made a terrific performance for a 5-1 win.
But there’s something even more impressive than the result itself – Bayern scored all of the five goals for just 34 minutes of time. Robert Lewandowski and Serge Gnabry scored braces while Thomas Muller added one more. It was a true demonstration of power by the Bavarian giants. Bayern quickly showed us that what happened against Eintracht was an accident and they will not stop ruling German football soon.
At this moment the champions are leading the Bundesliga standings with 19 points won. This puts them one point ahead of the second Borussia Dortmund, so right now it looks like an interesting title race in Germany. But just look at the stats – Nagelsmann’s team have scored 29 goals in 8 matches played – that’s just impressive. Are Bayern Munich even stronger compared to the previous season? We shall see.
So far Nagelsmann’s 4-2-3-1 formation is working really well. Against Leverkusen he put Gnabry, Muller and Sane behind Lewandowski while Kimmich and Goretzka started in midfield. Needless to say – it worked pretty well. He even tried some experiments and put Niklas Sule on the right back position although he’s usually playing as a centre-back.
Hoffenheim are currently sitting at 9th place in the Bundesliga with 11 points won. Their record so far in the league goes like this – three wins, two draws and three losses. It’s nothing special, but they have enough time to improve.
Just like Bayern, Hoffe also won their last game in the competition. Sebastian Hoeness’ team hosted Koln and rocked the Billy Goats with 5-0 at the PreZero Arena. Ihlas Bebou made a good game and scored twice while Baumgartner, Geiger and Posch finished the job. It was arguably Hoffenheim’s best performance for the season which gives them some better confidence before the trip to Munich.
Sebastian Hoeness can’t use some of his players against Bayern. Benjamin Hubner, Ermin Bicakcic and Havard Nordtveit are all unavailable with injuries. At the same time Julian Nagelsmann can’t pick one of his goalkeepers Sven Ulreich who’s still recovering. It’s not much of a problem for him, though – he’s actually lucky that his top players are fit and ready to play.
That’s the football betting tips this weekend for the Bundesliga clash between Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim. The Bavarians made a statement in their last game in Leverkusen when they showed their true power. The visitors will have a very tough task here, but Hoffenheim will try their best – that’s for sure. Let’s see if that’s going to be enough.
