Julian Nagelsmann’s team are second favourites to win the Champions League although they’re not having things completely their own way domestically. Bayern are just two points clear at the top of the German Bundesliga after twenty-four matches played, although they do have a vastly superior goal difference to Borussia Dortmund who appear to be the only other side now in the mix.
Bayern will look to edge clear and they are strong favourites to claim three points away to Bayer Leverkusen. It’s easy to make a case for whom Joao Cancelo is thriving since his transfer from Manchester City, with Sadio Mane having returned from injury and surely about to get back among the goals.
Bayern Munich have secured seven wins in twelve away games although there have been a few wobbles, with three draws and two defeats also being added into the mix. Bayer Leverkusen sit mid-table in the German Bundesliga although there are reasons to side with them in some shape or form considering that recent form has been impressive.
Leverkusen come into this game after a European engagement although they should be relatively comfortable against Ferencvaros and there have been some high-scoring Bundesliga wins in the form of a 4-1 victory against Hertha Berlin and a 3-2 away victory against Werder Bremen. Therefore, a Bayern win and both teams to score could be on the menu.
