Bundesliga 2024/25 predictions: Gameweek 21: 07/02-09/02
Bayern Munich will look to continue their winning spree when they welcome struggling Werder Bremen on Friday on matchday one. They currently sit at the top of the standings with 51 points, six points clear of the reigning champions, Bayer Leverkusen.
Xabi Alonso’s side bounced back to winning ways last time out with a 3-1 win over Hoffenheim after their draw against RB Leipzig last month. With 14 matches left, it would be unwise to rule them out of the Bundesliga title race.
Dortmund ended their winless run of four league games with a tight 2-1 win over Heidenheim, but their next game is tricky, as they come up against Stuttgart, who are in better form.
This week’s Bundesliga gameweek 21 predictions were based on current form, data and expert knowledge.
Bayern Munich to continue their winning momentum: Bayern Munich vs Werder Bremen
- Date: 07/02/2025
- Kick-off: 20:45
- Werder Bremen are too inconsistent to hope for a miracle against the Bavarians.
Bayern Munich are unbeaten in their last 29 Bundesliga games against Werder Bremen, winning over 25 matches. The hosts are in their formidable form, and it's a question of how many goals the visitors will concede in Munich.
Bayern Munich vs Werder Bremen prediction: Home team to win
Bayer Leverkusen will not struggle in the final third: Wolfsburg vs Bayer Leverkusen
- Date: 08/02/2025
- Kick-off: 15:30
- Bayer Leverkusen dominated these meetings in recent years, and we think this dominance will continue this weekend.
Bayer Leverkusen did not lose a single game and scored at least two goals in five of their last six meetings with Wolfsburg. Xabi Alonso’s men have dominated these meetings in recent seasons, and with their current form, it is possible to expect the visitors to score at least twice before the last whistle.
Wolfsburg vs Bayer Leverkusen prediction: Away total goals: Over 1.5
Union Berlin to avoid a defeat: Union Berlin vs Hoffenheim
- Date: 08/02/2025
- Kick-off: 15:30
- Union Berlin have dominated these fixtures in recent years, so there’s a chance they may avoid a defeat in the upcoming game.
Union Berlin won five and drew two of their last ten meetings against Hoffenheim. Both teams have struggled this term, but given their recent encounters, there’s a chance the hosts may avoid a defeat in Berlin.
Union Berlin vs Hoffenheim prediction: Home team to win or draw
Dortmund and Stuttgart to display their attacking prowess: Dortmund vs Stuttgart
- Date: 08/02/2025
- Kick-off: 15:30
- Dortmund have dominated these meetings, winning seven of their last ten encounters, but these games are fond of producing many goals.
Dortmund may have struggled this term, but they have dominated these meetings. However, they are not as strong as in previous seasons, but they do not have scoring issues. Nine of their last ten meetings ended with over 2.5 goals; therefore, the upcoming game may follow suit.
Dortmund vs Stuttgart prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Freiburg to win at least one half: Freiburg vs Heidenheim
- Date: 08/02/2025
- Kick-off: 15:30
- Freiburg dominated these meetings, and their current form suggests they may at least win in one half.
Neither Freiburg nor Heidenheim dominated these meetings in recent seasons, as each team won one of their last three Bundesliga encounters. However, Freiburg are in better form, having accrued 30 points already, unlike Heidenheim, who are fighting against relegation. Based on their current form, the hosts can outscore the visitors in at least either half.
Freiburg vs Heidenheim prediction: Home team to win either half - yes
Mainz and Augsburg to delight fans with goals: Mainz vs Augsburg
- Date: 03/02/2025
- Kick-off: 15:30
- Matches involving both teams usually produce many goals, and the upcoming game may follow suit.
Mainz dominated these fixtures in recent seasons, winning four of their last five league meetings with Augsburg. However, Mainz’s current form suggests we should rather focus on goals than back them to seal a win. Four of their last five meetings ended with three or more goals; therefore, the upcoming game may follow suit.
Mainz vs Augsburg prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Borussia Monchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt to exchange goals: Monchengladbach vs Eintracht Frankfurt
- Date: 08/02/2025
- Kick-off: 18:30
- Both teams are fond of scoring against themselves, and there’s a chance we may witness the same in the upcoming game.
Borussia Monchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt exchanged goals in four of their last five Bundesliga matches. Both teams have endured inconsistent results lately; therefore, there’s a decent chance both teams may get on the scoreboard in the upcoming game.
Monchengladbach vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: Both teams to score - yes
Holstein Kiel and Bochum to exchange goals: Holstein Kiel vs Bochum
- Date: 09/02/2025
- Kick-off: 15:30
- Both teams find it relatively easy to get on the scoreboard, and there’s a decent chance both clubs may repeat the same in the upcoming game.
Holstein Kiel and Bochum met nine times, including their time in the second division, and both teams got on the scoresheet in eight of these games. The reverse fixture ended in a 2-2 draw, and eight of their last nine matches ended with three or more goals. Over 2.5 goals or both teams to score is a decent tip for this clash.
Holstein Kiel vs Bochum prediction: Both teams to score - yes
RB Leipzig and St. Pauli to struggle in the final third: RB Leipzig vs St. Pauli
- Date: 09/02/2025
- Kick-off: 17:30
- Matches involving both teams rarely produce many goals, and there’s a chance the upcoming game may follow suit.
Four of their last six meetings ended with less than four goals, including the reverse fixture that ended in a goalless draw at St. Pauli. Both teams may have produced six goals in a cup game, but league matches rarely produce goals.
