When Bayer Leverkusen come to Allianz Arena for the Bundesliga match on Saturday, Bayern Munich will be hoping to use their home advantage to their advantage.

The two teams enter the match at Allianz Arena with three points separating them in the Bundesliga standings.

Bayern Munich currently rank as number 1 in the Bundesliga table, having 12 points after four matches. Bayer Leverkusen trail them by three points, leaving the latter ranked at number 2.

Bayer Leverkusen will not be short on motivation for their clash with the match favourites Bayern Munich. Although the odds are against them, a narrow win this coming Saturday will see them move ahead of their upcoming opponents in the table.

Bayern Munich are in eminent form in the goal scoring department, banging in 30 goals in their previous ten matches. This creates an average of three goals per game. They held on for a clean sheet in four of these, conceding 12 goals for an average of 1.2 per game.

The last time these two teams faced off against each other, Bayer Leverkusen came away as 3-0 winners. No doubt they are planning a similar outcome this coming Saturday.

Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction

Bayern Munich Form

In their last three outings, Bayern Munich won 1-6 against Holstein Kiel, beat Dinamo Zagreb by 9-2 and hammered Werder Bremen 0-5. Bayern Munich have been in potent form at Allianz Arena, winning no less than five of the past six Bundesliga matches here. They also hammered in 16 goals, while letting in four as they also lost once.

Bayern Munich would probably consider anything lower than at least a second place finish a disappointment. The hosts have one eye on a title challenge and know a good start is imperative.

Bayer Leverkusen Form

In their last three matches, Bayer Leverkusen first beat Hoffenheim 1-4, then Feyenoord by 0-4 and finally Wolfsburg by 4-3. Bayer Leverkusen recorded no less than five in their previous six Bundesliga away matches, as well drawing once and losing none. They hit the target 19 themselves while allowing five goals against.

Defending champion Bayer Leverkusen are of course a red-hot favourite to re-claim the title, and they aim to make a good start to the season.

Bayern Munich have built up a nice momentum, and we doubt Bayer Leverkusen are capable of getting in the way of the home side at Allianz Arena, as we aim for the home win.
