Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund Preview and Team News

Bayern Munich Team News

Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich will look to maintain their 100% record at the start of the Bundesliga season when they take on arch-rivals Borussia Dortmund. It’s been a mesmerizing start to the new campaign for the reigning champions, who have won each of their opening six matches and scored a remarkable 25 goals. 

Bayern’s relentless form continued before the international break with a comfortable 3-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt. Kompany’s team dominated the ball in their preferred 4-2-3-1 formation, enjoying 61% possession. 

The ability of their front three to seamlessly move into different positions has caused headaches for opposing sides this term, while Kane’s remarkable scoring sequence ensures that they have a killer instinct in the final third. 

Bayern Munich predicted lineup vs Borussia Dortmund (4-2-3-1): Neuer; Boey, Upamecano, Tah, Laimer; Goretzka, Kimmich; Olise, Gnabry, Diaz; Kane.

Borussia Dortmund Team News

Niko Kovac must be delighted with the start to the season that his Borussia Dortmund side have achieved. 

The German club currently sit second in the Bundesliga standings, having gone unbeaten through the opening six rounds. However, even at this early stage, it appears challenging to foresee BVB mounting a championship challenge. 

Dortmund have deployed a more counterattacking style under Kovac this term, with Couto and Svensson thriving as full-backs in the 3-4-2-1 system. The pace of Adeyemi and Beier will be key for the team’s chances this weekend as they look to quickly turn defense into attack at the Allianz Arena. 

Borussia Dortmund predicted lineup vs Bayern Munich (3-4-2-1): Kobel; Anton, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini; Couto, Sabitzer, Nmecha, Svensson; Adeyemi, Beier; Guirassy.

Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction 

  • Pick: Bayern Munich to win
  • Odds: -313 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Bayern Munich 3-0 Borussia Dortmund

Despite the clubs sitting in the top two positions in the standings, there’s a major gulf between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. 

Kompany’s side have looked better than ever this term, and their prowess at both ends of the field is hard to overlook. The Bavarians’ energy in the middle of the park will also be key, as it’s unlikely that they’ll get caught out on the counterattack against a defensive-minded Dortmund. 

The home win looks like the most likely outcome, and it could be achieved by a wide margin. 

Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Both Teams Not to Score
  • Odds: +140 (20Bet)

Even though Dortmund sit second in the Bundesliga, it could be argued that they’ve yet to find their attacking threat in the 3-4-2-1 formation. 

They’ve managed an average xG of just 1.58, and against one of the best defenses in Europe, they could struggle to find openings this Saturday. Bayern Munich’s defensive record at the Allianz is staggering, with clean sheets in 100% of their fixtures and an xGA of just 1.01.
