Prediction

  • Record champions Bayern have started their quest for their 12th successive Bundesliga title with two comfortable wins with Harry Kane scoring three times.
  • Gladbach are without a win, but can normally be relied upon to push Bayern all the way, taking four points last season in the original "Klassiker."
  • FCB have scored in 29 Bundesliga games in a row, last failing to find the net in September last year.
  • Bayern have not conceded in the first half of any league game since Augsburg in March when Thomas Tuchel took over as coach.
  • Goals for both sides can be expected again with Harry Kane's new side enjoying the happier end.

  • Second half much better however ! Sane and Laimer were just great and finally the spell could be broken after 4 years.

  • Same procedure as every year ... didn't think that was possible.

  • Gladbach always gave Munich a hard time Bayern will be in pickle

  • 0-3

  • Same as last week Bayern Win and Kane to score anytime.

  • 0-2, 1-3

  • Neumi do you think your team will win easily ?

  • @Marbella Don't know, usually it should be no match and Bayern has to win easily. But sometimes there are weird constellations in football where one team keeps losing vs a much, much weaker one on a regular basis. However this season I think the spell is over and Bayern will win convincingly in Gladbach under Tuchel.

  • @neumi17 very tricky match I advice y'all to avoid

  • @neumi17 Thanks for your info.

  • Borussia has always given Bayern a hard time, regardless of the quality of players in each side. I'm boldly backing Borussia to do the thing again. Borussia 2-1 Bayern.

  • @0708915762 Hard to agree on that one... Dortmund always sells their best players every season... It would have been a bloodbath this season if they had Bellingham and Haaland, no disrespect to Haller.. They have the best scouts in the world, but that's not enough to compete against a team that replaces Mane with Kane, and Lucas with Kim, they even replaced Blind with Dortmund's own starting LB..

  • @Kingjigga Its never about the best players. Borussia always beats bayern for the last 3 or so reasons. Check their H2H encounters and you'll see my point. The best result bayern can get in this match is a draw. And don't be surprised if Borussia nets another one in the second half. And after this game , Borussia will go on to lose multiple games to lower teams. I've never understood this team
