Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Predictions
Bayern’s scoring pace continues against top opposition
Bayern Munich’s attacking numbers in the Bundesliga remain extraordinary. The league leaders have scored 92 goals across 25 matches and the scoring rate rises even further against stronger opposition. Meetings with top-six sides this season have produced eight Bayern wins with a combined score of 33-6.
Those matches also show how open Bayern games can become at the top end of the table. Their average rises to 4.1 total goals per match against top-six teams, while the overall scoring rate sits around 3.7 per game across the campaign.
Recent results underline the same trend. Bayern beat Monchengladbach 4-1 last weekend and followed it with a 6-1 Champions League win away to Atalanta in Bergamo on Tuesday. Both games arrived without Harry Kane in the squad.
Leverkusen have also produced open scorelines recently. A 3-3 draw with Freiburg last weekend included a late equaliser from Matthias Ginter, and the club has conceded five goals across the last two Bundesliga matches. Alejandro Grimaldo admitted afterwards that the team looked tired during that game.
Earlier in the season Bayern already produced a clear result in this matchup. A 3-0 win over Leverkusen at Allianz Arena in November ended the visitors’ 37-game unbeaten away run in all competitions.
A Bayern victory with a high goal line sits naturally beside those scoring trends, especially with Kane expected to return for the trip to BayArena.

Luis Diaz brings a strong scoring run into this fixture
Luis Diaz arrives in strong individual form in the Bundesliga. The winger has scored five goals across his last six league appearances and continues to feature regularly in Bayern’s attacking rotation.
That scoring run places him close to the top of the Bundesliga scoring list. Without Harry Kane in the same squad he would be only one goal behind the leading mark in the division.
Team scoring volume naturally supports those numbers. Bayern’s 92 league goals in 25 matches represent the highest attacking output in the competition this season, and several recent fixtures have produced four or more total goals.
Leverkusen still carry attacking threats of their own. Nineteen-year-old Christian Kofane has scored in back-to-back Bundesliga matches, while the team also produced a solid European display in a 1-1 draw against Arsenal during the week.
However, Diaz’s current scoring sequence remains the most direct individual trend attached to this fixture. Five goals in six league appearances place him among Bayern’s most reliable finishers in the current stretch.
Luis Diaz to score anytime at odds of 2.10 fits comfortably with that recent scoring run.
