Bayern Munich vs Freiburg

, KO: 16:30 Oct 8, 2023, Allianz Arena
Freiburg

Bayern Munich welcome Freiburg to the Allianz Arena for a Bundesliga fixture on Sunday as they look to crank up the pressure on surprise leaders Bayer Leverkusen. This fixture has been all one-sided in recent times and the champions are expected to come out on top once again.

Bayern Munich are coming off a 2-2 draw with RB Leipzig in their previous Bundesliga fixture. They fought back from two goals down with Harry Kane’s penalty setting them on their way before Leroy Sane netted the equaliser midway through the second half.

It has not been a typically dominant campaign for Bayern Munich, who find themselves in the strange position of having to chase someone else down. They are two points off the pace but crucially are yet to taste defeat across all competitions this season and head into Sunday’s clash off the back of a 2-1 Champions League win at Copenhagen.

Bayern Munich may be taking a while to find their rhythm but they have continued to maintain a solid home record. Thomas Tuchel’s men are unbeaten at the Allianz Arena this season and ran out 7-0 winners over Bochum in their previous fixture in front of their fans.

It has been an erratic start to the season for Freiburg, who are struggling to replicate last season's performance that saw them secure a European finish. They are currently eighth on the standings having picked up three wins from six Bundesliga matches.

Freiburg ended a three match winless run in the Bundesliga with a 2-0 victory over Augsburg last time out. However, they were back to their old habits in midweek, suffering a 2-1 home defeat to West Ham in the Europa League.

One problem that appears to hamper Freiburg is a poor record on their travels having claimed just one win in their last five matches stretching back to last season. Christian Streich’s men have failed to score in their last two away matches with a 5-0 defeat at Stuttgart among their results on the road this season.

How the bookies view it

Bayern Munich are considered overwhelming favourites with a home win priced at 1/6 by Coral. An unlikely victory for Freiburg is valued at 16/1 by bet365 while a draw is set at odds of 15/2 by bet365.

Head to head

Bayern Munich have a 35-5 advantage with nine draws from 38 previous matches against Freiburg. The Bavarians have won four of the last five fixtures and picked up a 1-0 victory in the last meeting back in April.

Players to watch

With eight goals in six Bundesliga matches this season, Harry Kane will be the one to watch from Bayern Munich and is priced at 9/20 by 888Sport to score anytime. Leroy Sane has five goals in six fixtures and could also be worth keeping an eye on at 6/4 with William Hill.

Given Freiburg’s attacking problems on their travels, Bayern Munich will be targeting a shutout on Sunday. They have kept clean sheets in two of the last three meetings and with Kim Min-Jae and Dayot Upamecano at the back, a similar outcome could be considered at 21/20 with Coral.

Anything else catch the eye?

Bayern Munich have won to nil in two of their last three meetings with Freiburg and a repeat is valued at 6/5 with Paddy Power. Having put seven past Bochum in their previous home fixture, a -2 handicap could also be considered at 6/5 with Paddy Power.

The Bavarians are expected to be dominant on Sunday and could be backed to win both halves at 11/10 with BoyleSports.
