Opposition Focus
Playing away to promoted sides in a jam-packed stadium is always a difficult challenge, but games behind closed doors have given the visiting side an advantage. Arminia Bielefeld has enjoyed a steady start to the league campaign, but Saturday will be their toughest test this season.
Hoffenheim and Hertha Berlin have shown that Die Roten are not invincibles and they have few weaknesses that can be capitalized on. Neuhaus will have to make sure that his team maintains a compact shape and give Bayern very less space between the midfield and defense line. They have conceded only two goals in three league games, so they can surely maintain a rigid shape.
Fabian Klos is yet to open his account for the season, but he will have the onus to be the focal point against Die Roten. Sergio Cordova and Cebio Soukou have been the bright spark in the attack for Bielefeld. The two wide players will have to be on their toes to punish Bayern’s high line of defense.
Score Prediction
Arminia Bielefeld 1- 3 FC Bayern Munich
The home side has enjoyed a dream start in the Bundesliga, but Bayern Munich will be a difficult proposition behind closed doors. Since Die Roten has been defensively awkward, I expect Bielefeld to score once, but it will be a comfortable victory for the visitors.
