League: Bundesliga

Venue: Alliaz Arena, Munchen, Germany

Time: 20th May, 10 pm

Bayern Munich vs RB Leipzig Preview:

Bayern Munich host RB Leipzig at the Alliaz Arena on Saturday as the title reaches its exciting climax. The hosts currently sit top with 68 points, 1 point above rivals Borussia Dortmund having played the same number of games. Thomas Tuchel hasn’t had a great start to his Bayern Munich career, getting knocked out of the Champions League and the DKB Pokal – thus, winning the Bundesliga will be considered as a successful end to the season. After an underwhelming month of April getting knocked out of both competitions and points dropped in the league, Bayern have got back on track with three wins in a row in the league.This included a huge 6-0 victory last weekend against Schalke courtesy of Gnabry’s brace. While Leipzig aren’t ideal opponents to face, Bayern are unbeaten against them in their last 11 meetings. Tuchel’s side also boast a great home record this season, unbeaten at the Allianz Arena in 16 matches. They have also scored in each of their last 56 games and a win against Leipzig coupled with a draw or a loss to Dortmund would see them being crowned champions this weekend itself.

Leipzig on the other hand have been on a rich vein of form themselves, currently sitting third in the table. After the 5-1 victory over Freiburg to reach the finals of the DFB Pokal, Marco Rose’s side are now on a four match winning-streak, unbeaten in their last eight. Their only defeat came at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen at the BayArena. With Union Berlin and Freiburg just one point behind Leipzig, they cannot be taking any game for granted in their pursuit for Champions League next season, although Europa League is confirmed as they cannot finish lower than 5th. The visitors also have the best away record in the division since the turn of the year, conceding only six goals in eight away games – with only Napoli faring better in this department across Europe. However, Leipzig haven’t had great outings against Bayern, winning just one of their last 16 matches with the defending Bundesliga Champions.
