MATCH PREVIEW

The Bavarians are on course to record a ninth straight league title, and are placed at the top of the table with a lead of seven points over the second-placed Leipzig. With just seven more match-days remaining, it seems like a healthy lead.

However, Leipzig have been adamant about putting an end to the monopoly of Hans-Dieter Flick’s men, and now they will try to capitalize on the absence of Robert Lewandowski, who has been sidelined for a month due to an injury.

The reigning champions will have to keep up the intensity, to avoid any last-minute mishaps, especially with the CL knockouts lurking around the corner.

Meanwhile, the Iron Ones are going through an inconsistent run at the moment. They have a total of just one league victory from their last five league games, and that had come against the relegation-threatened Koln.

On top of that, they have been struggling on the road for quite some time, and they also have a worrying h2h record against this foe over the years – particularly so at the Allianz Arena.

PREDICTION

Bayern Munich moved seven points clear at the top of the Bundesliga with a 1-0 win at nearest challengers RB Leipzig last Saturday. It was their fifth straight victory in the league and a ninth consecutive title now seems a formality. They were beaten by PSG in the Champions League in midweek but they have not lost at home in the Bundesliga since November 2019.

The champions have only kept one clean sheet in their last 10 league games at the Allianz Arena, though, and with several first-team regulars unavailable or doubtful for this one, it will be something of a patched-up Bayern side that take on Union Berlin. The visitors can certainly nick a goal here but they are unlikely to take any points back to the capital.

For the reasons, expect Bayern Munich to emerge victorious this Saturday.
