German Super Cup: Bayern Munich vs. Borussia Dortmund Betting Preview, Odds, Prediction

The German Super Cup features two of the strongest team in this country, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. However, we might say that there is just one powerhouse when it comes to German football (and that is Bayern), who is the undisputed ruler here, as well as on the entire continent. Coming up to this match, the Bavarians experienced a shocking defeat in Hoffenheim. Meanwhile, Borussia was knocked out in Augsburg, despite the fact that they dominated the game.

Preview

Bayern Munich (-200) was trashed in Hoffenheim, 4-1, and that was the first defeat for Hansi Flick on Bayern’s bench. Now check out to see when he took over, and you’ll get a clear picture of Bayern’s dominance last season.

The European champions lost this one, but we have to tell you that Flick’s side had numerous missed chances with 2-1 for the hosts and that they wasted a few of them because of certain players’ selfishness.

In the previous two events, Bayern won the European Super Cup against Sevilla in Budapest, after extra-times, 2-1, previously demolishing the big rivals, Schalke, in the season opener at Allianz Arena, 8-0.

Borussia Dortmund (+500) is the reigning German Super Cup champion here, but that isn’t very big of a consolation for the Millionaires and their fans. For the second year in a row, they missed an ideal chance to step up and interrupt Bayern’s dominance, which makes their fanbase pretty frustrated and furious.

After a good start of the season, where they haven’t allowed a goal in two matches, Monchengladbach, 3-0, and Duisburg in DFB Pokal 0-5, Borussia collapsed against Augsburg.

They had the initiative throughout the whole 90 minutes in that match, holding the ball in their possession 71% of time, and recording 16 goal attempts. Then again, the Millionaires showed many flaws, which is why hosts took this event in their favor. We need to say that sometimes Borussia thrills us in different ways. Also, this unit has blackouts characteristic for lower-tier clubs.

Latest News

Bayern will appear without two starters, David Alaba and Leroy Sane, who, truth to be told, disappointed against Hoffenheim, and is apparently still looking for his place in this squad.

As for Borussia, things are much more complicated. Zagadoum Sancho, Schmelzer, Roman Burki, and Thorgan Hazard are our for tonight’s match.

Head to Head Games

Believe it or not, the last four games saw just one side scoring, and during that time, Bayern posted three wins, while Borussia had one. 

This match will be played in Munich, at Allianz Arena, so we need to look at the previous games here. In the last three, Bayern won with a combined goal difference of 15-0…. After this data, we won’t be looking for anything further. 

Prediction

Expect to see Bayern’s rage and a demolished Borussia. The Millionaires are already crippled with injuries, and on top of that, they have furious hosts, who wants to redeem for the loss against Hoffenheim. 

Bayern to score two goals in the first halftime is +180 and that is an excellent offer. The Bavarians to win with -1.5 goals handicap (spread) is at +1-5, which is also a great offer.
