Leipzig vs Bayern Prediction
🔊 Can the Munich side clinch the championship this round without Harry Kane? The league leaders arrive at the Red Bull Arena with significant absences, yet they remain strong favorites for the upcoming match. Facing Vincent Kompany's men is a struggling Leipzig team, desperate to secure a Champions League spot as the season draws to a close.
Head-to-Head
📊 In the first round of the current campaign at the Allianz Arena, Bayern demolished Leipzig (5-1). It's worth noting the high scoring nature of these encounters - at least three goals have been netted in 8 of the last 9 matches. Additionally, RB Leipzig have managed to avoid defeat in their last two home games against the Munich side (1-1, 2-2).

Leipzig Team Overview
⚪ Unlike their opponents, the "Red Bulls" are not having the best of times. In the last round, they suffered a heavy defeat against Eintracht (0-4). Leipzig sit in fifth place, just a couple of points away from the Champions League spots, but a loss could see them drop to 7th or 8th. After facing Bayern, they still have an away game against Werder and a home match against Stuttgart.
🔝 It's worth noting that team veteran Péter Gulácsi ranks as the third goalkeeper in the current Bundesliga season for the number of saves made (98).

Bayern Munich Team Overview
🔴 Vincent Kompany's team is on the verge of clinching the trophy. With a commanding 3-0 home victory over Mainz, they can seal the championship in the upcoming round. Despite not having a flawless spring campaign, Bayern have benefited from Bayer's simultaneous slip-ups, which have prevented any serious competition.
📌 The match against Mainz marked Thomas Müller's 500th appearance in the Bundesliga. Meanwhile, another assist from Michael Olise has solidified his lead in the tournament's assist rankings. The Frenchman now boasts 14 assists.

Latest news
Leipzig
📝 It's still uncertain who will take the helm next season, as Zsolt Löw is currently serving as interim manager and is likely to step down at the end of the season. Recently, names like Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace), Thierry Henry (currently unattached), and Cesc Fabregas (Como) have been discussed, though Fabregas has already turned down the offer.
❌ The upcoming match will see El Chadaille Bitshiabu (red card), Willi Orban (muscle injury), and Xaver Schlager (hip) sidelined. Péter Gulácsi (concussion) and Assan Ouedraogo (knee) are doubtful. Defender Benjamin Henrichs is out for the rest of the season with an Achilles injury.
Bayern Munich
📣 Harry Kane has picked up his fifth yellow card of the season, which means he'll miss the match against Leipzig. Here's how the striker reacted to missing a potentially title-deciding game: "It's just my style. But no worries, I'll be celebrating harder than anyone else."
📢 Vincent Kompany on Kane's suspension: "Of course, it's not ideal, but we have 34 matches in a season. Players like Musiala, Davies, Upamecano, and Ito, who also won't be able to play, will still celebrate the title when it's won. For Harry, it doesn't matter much and it doesn't take away from what he's contributed to Bayern this season."
❌ Harry Kane will not feature against Leipzig. It's uncertain whether defender Dayot Upamecano will participate in the game. Hiroki Ito, Jamal Musiala, and Alphonso Davies are definitely out for the rest of the season. The return date for Manuel Neuer remains unknown.
🚩 Corner Kicks Prediction
In their last seven matches, the Munich side have not delivered more than six corner kicks. Despite playing away and missing several key players, they remain the favorites. However, we don't expect them to dominate set pieces. Therefore, we suggest betting on Bayern's individual total corners under 6.5.
⚽️ Goals Prediction
With the Bundesliga's top scorer absent and considering that the current Leipzig team will find it challenging to create chances against the league's best defense (Bayern have conceded the fewest goals - 29), we don't anticipate a goal-fest. Thus, we recommend a bet with decent odds - total goals under 4.
Editor's Prediction
Leipzig at home often pose a challenge for Bayern Munich. While the "Bulls" might not be in peak form currently, Bayern are dealing with a slew of injuries as well. Thus, we suggest placing a bet on the hosts to win with a +1.5 handicap. This wager has been successful for Leipzig in 7 of their last 8 Bundesliga home encounters against Bayern Munich.
