Leverkusen will be without Ezequiel Fernandez, Exequiel Palacios, and Nathan Tella this weekend. Malik Tillman also remains doubtful due to a hamstring issue. Coach Kasper Hjulmand has nonetheless guided the squad through a significant rebuilding phase.
He had a mountain to climb after the departure of several key players over the summer. With their away form strong in recent months, Leverkusen are travelling to Munich seeking to convert momentum into a positive result.
Bayern’s run this season has been nothing short of breathtaking. They’ve claimed win in each of their opening eight league matches. En route, they’ve amassed 30 goals while conceding only four. Leverkusen’s recent outings have also featured plenty of attacking intent.
They have also been full of late-game drama, despite a heavy European reverse. Head-to-head analysis shows that direct encounters between the two sides have often been high-scoring affairs. Hence, the odds on 3.5+ are well justified given the clubs’ attacking dynamism and defensive vulnerabilities.
Harry Kane continues to set a torrid scoring pace at Bayern. He’s been breaking records with his Champions League contributions and league tallies alike. He remains central to their attacking strategy and has seldom failed to find the net this season. That makes him a highly reliable pick.
While not as headline-grabbing as Kane, Luis Díaz has also emerged as a consistently dangerous outlet in Bayern’s forward line. His pace and creativity make him a credible threat to either score or create a goal in any given game. Against a Leverkusen side prone to conceding in high-tempo matches, backing Diaz for a goal contribution also offers good value.
| Picks | Moneyline |
| Hugo Ekitike to score first | +460 |
| Harry Kane to score anytime | +220 |
| Michael Olise to assist anytime | +100 |
| Serge Gnabry to either score or assist | -180 |

A 3-1 scoreline captures Bayern’s intent and Leverkusen’s capability to threaten. It’s a fitting outcome for a fixture of this calibre.
