Bundesliga Betting: Bayer to lose further ground

Bayer Leverkusen were held to a goalless draw last week and lost their spot at the top of the table. They may well struggle again this weekend, says Kevin Hatchett.

Bundesliga Betting: Bremen to put the brakes on Bayer

Kevin Hatchard attempts to continue his good run of tipping form and kicks off this week’s column with his reasoning as to why Bayer Leverkusen’s trip to Werder Bremen is likely to finish with a share of the spoils. “Bayer aren’t winning enough games away from home, and they may well find life tough against a Bremen side who have found their feet after a rough patch

Bundesliga Betting: Ribery is back but so is the Champions League…

Bayern Munich are the in-form side of the Bundesliga at the moment whilst Dortmund have come unstuck over the last couple of weeks. But with a huge Champions League match on the horizon for Bayern this could just be the week to oppose them… “Bayern are understandably strong favourites, but I think they’ll have one eye on the Champions League.

Whereas in the likes of England and Spain the league winners end up being the same teams and safety is the key word, the Bundesliga continues to be an advert for unpredictability and attacking football, says Jonathan Wilson. “But the football on offer is still far from universally attritional, yielding 2.72 goals per game
