Bayern Munich vs Darmstadt prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2023-10-27 13:30.
Although they are not in their usual position at the summit of the Bundesliga table, eternal champions Bayern Munich continued their undefeated start to the league campaign (W6, D2) with back-to-back wins over Freiburg and Mainz either side of the international break. It’s the first time since 2016/17 that Bayern have gone this deep into a top-flight season without defeat, and they kept the momentum going with a 3-1 win over Galatasaray in midweek European action.
Possessing the league’s most devastating attack with 26 goals is a big reason why they’re unbeaten, and adding to that tally here would see them score in their 62nd consecutive home top-flight match, meaning they’re now fast approaching the Bundesliga record (64) they set themselves between 1970 and 1974. Darmstadt are next to visit the Allianz Arena, which should boost home confidence as the Bavarians have won 29 of their last 32 Bundesliga home matches against newly promoted sides (D2, L1).
That’s a scary prospect for Darmstadt, who have never beaten Bayern in the 12 attempts since winning the first-ever H2H in 1950 (D1, L11). And Torsten Lieberknecht’s men look to be struggling in their return to the top tier for the first time since 2016/17, managing just two league wins (D1, L5), with their last outing ending in a 3-1 defeat at home to Leipzig.
Another defeat here would see the Lilies lose six of their first nine games of a Bundesliga season for the very first time. Conceding the most goals in the competition before the round sheds light on their biggest issue at present, while no clean sheet in their last 25 top-flight away matches indicates it’s been a problem that’s plagued them for some time against Germany’s elite.
Players to watch: Bayern’s Kingsley Coman has scored in four of his last five matches for club and country, netting the opener within 15 minutes on three of those occasions. Not to be outdone, Tobias Kempe has found the net in Darmstadt’s last three matches, with all those goals coming from the penalty spot.
Hot streak: Both teams have scored in each of Darmstadt’s last seven matches.
