Bayern Munich vs Heidenheim prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-12-06 14:30.
[p]After their draw against Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker last week, Bayern Munich will enter the latest round of Bundesliga action on the back of defeat in midweek cup action against Bayer Leverkusen, ending their eight-game unbeaten run in all competitions (W7, D1). As yet unbeaten in league action (W9, D3), this could be a significant game psychologically for Bayern as they fell to their first league defeat last season on matchday 13. [/p]
[p]Playing at home should provide a huge boost for Bayern, who have conceded the fewest home league goals (one) of all teams in Europe’s traditional top-five leagues. A fourth straight shutout here would secure their longest run of home league clean sheets in over five years, yet conceding six goals across their last two competitive home victories against Heidenheim suggests this may be a goal-fuelled affair. [/p]
[p]All signs point to another heavy scoreline in Bayern’s favour, as on top of Heidenheim’s nine conceded away H2H goals, they enter this clash on the back of conceding nine times across their last two league outings. Those defeats make up part of what is now an unwanted club record of seven consecutive winless games in Bundesliga action (D1, L6), with the last three defeats coming by multi-goal margins. [/p]
[p]In fact, Heidenheim have already conceded at least three goals in six league games this season, one more than they did in the entirety of their debut top-flight campaign in 2023/24. Consequently, Heidenheim travel here in the relegation play-off spot and are at risk of being cut adrift, though the visitors can perhaps take scant hope from the fact that two of their three league wins this term came away from home. [/p]
[p]Players to watch: With Harry Kane unavailable for this clash through injury, Bayern veteran Thomas Müller may bear some of the scoring burden after directly contributing to two goals in three personal H2Hs (G1, A1). Also without their own club top scorer for this, Heidenheim may look to the likes of midfielder Niklas Dorsch, who directly contributed to two goals in one Bundesliga game for the first time since moving to Germany in 2021 in their latest away game (G1, A1). [/p]
[p]Hot stat: Six of Bayern Munich’s nine league wins this season have come by 3+ goal margins. [/p]
