Bitesize Prediction: Bayern Munich vs Borussia Mönchengladbach – 07/01/22

Competition: Bundesliga

Market: Bayern Munich to win by 2+ goals

Odds: 19/20 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the Bundesliga table, Bayern Munich will host Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday night.

Starting with the hosts, last seen heading into Germany’s festive break with a thumping 4-0 win at home against Wolfsburg, it is no surprise that Bayern Munich are once again tipped as a landslide pick to reclaim their Bundesliga crown. Marking their return to action on Friday night holding a commanding nine-point buffer over the chasing pack, Head Coach Julian Nagelsmann will be looking for his side to lay down another marker here. Signing off their 2021 run by winning each of their previous seven matchups from across all formats, the former RB Leipzig boss will find the mood in his camp at a red-hot high. Booking their spot in the knockout stage of this season’s Champions League and continuing to shine with their free-scoring displays, Nagelsmann’s men should be smelling a golden chance when they return to action in Munich.

As for the visitors, while Bayern might find themselves leading the chase at the top of the Bundesliga table, Borussia Mönchengladbach are scrapping it out at the other end. Enduring what has quickly become a nightmare run of form under Adi Hütter, the Colts are still firmly looking over their shoulder at the drop zone. Marking their return to action holding just a two-point buffer from slipping into the relegation play-off spot, Gladbach have collected just a single point from any of their last five contests. With their recent issues highlighted by back-to-back 4-1 and 6-0 drummings against Koln and Freiburg, Friday’s guests will know that they face a huge task here. While they might hold a shock record against the defending champions, we’re backing what should turn out to be a routine home victory for the German heavyweights.
