Leipzig v Bayern Munich Betting Tips [20 January 2023]

Leipzig will play host to Bayern Munich as the German top flight make the long-awaited return. These two face off with just six points separating them – Bayern on top with 34 and Leipzig third on 28. For the hosts, staying in the top four in a crowded race will be the priority, and a seven-game unbeaten run in the league is a good base for them. They started the season poorly but have suffered just one loss in the last 10 league matches and failed to score in just one of the 10 league games. In each of their last six league matches, Leipzig have scored two or more goals. it is their home that they will bank on more – Leipzig haven’t lost a league game at home this season; they have six straight wins at home in the league, with four clean sheets in the process. They’ve actually lost just once in the last 15 league matches.

Bayern Munich on the other hand have six straight wins in the league and are coming into this game unbeaten in eight league games. They have a good scoring run but have shown a bit of frailty in defence; in their last 10 league matches they’ve managed four clean sheets but they’ve scored two or more goals in nine of the 10 games. Both teams have scored in three of their last four matches in the Bundesliga and they have three straight away wins. This season, Bayern have lost just once in the league and with a great run over Leipzig, they are on course for their 11th win in 16 league matches this season. In the last 10 meetings with Leipzig, Bayern have lost only once, and they go into this game with four straight wins against Leipzig.

Bayern Munich have a great run against Leipzig and they are also going into this game on a strong run. Leipzig have done well too, coming into this game unbeaten in their last seven league matches. Their shape against Bayern hasn’t been great and the injury to Christopher Nkunku, their lead scorer doesn’t help. We still expect to see goals from their end, thus for the Leipzig v Bayern Munich clash, over 2.5 goals will be a good pick.
