Dortmund vs Bayern Munich prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-11-29 17:30.
[p]Borussia Dortmund trail rivals and Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich by ten points ahead of the first âKlassikerâ of the season but have the bragging rights after winning the last H2H 2-0 in March. As Nuri Ćahin and Vincent Kompany prepare for their first managerial experience of German professional footballâs most played fixture in what will be the 136th edition, this renewal intriguingly pits the leagueâs best home side (Dortmund: W6) against the one with the best away record (Bayern: W5, D1).[/p]
[p]Since drawing against Bremen in late August, Dortmund have alternated between league home wins and away defeats, albeit they now face their first back-to-back home league games after beating Freiburg 4-0 at Signal Iduna Park last weekend. In fact, they haven’t lost a competitive game at home since early April (W12, D1), a record that now faces a stern test as theyâre without a home H2H victory since winning the 2019/20 German Super Cup 2-0 (D1, L6).[/p]
[p]Looking to maintain that impressive H2H winning streak, Bayern arrive in ominous form having won their last five league matches without conceding, whilst theyâre yet to be beaten in the Bundesliga this term (W9, D2). They start the round six points clear of their nearest challengers fresh from a fine UEFA Champions League 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.[/p]
[p]Only once have they failed to net 3+ goals in a league away game this term – their most recent triumph over St. Pauli (1-0) – and with Harry Kane beating then-Dortmundâs Erling Haalandâs record to become the quickest player to reach 50 Bundesliga goals last weekend, such goal scoring prowess suggests they are primed to get another one over their rivals here.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Felix Nmecha has scored in two of his last three games for club and country with two of his three goals for Dortmund this term arriving between the 75th and 85th minute. Bayernâs Kane recently responded to criticism that he doesnât score enough in big matches by recalling his hat-trick in this fixture last term, while he has also opened the scoring in three of his last four Bundesliga goal scoring outings.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Four of the last five H2Hs produced the same number of goals in each half (Bayern: W3, D1, L1).[/p]
