Bundesliga 2024/25 Preview: Bayern Munich look to reclaim throne in Germany
Key games of the season
The games against Borussia Dortmund are always crucial for Bayern fans on the calendar. However, the two games against Bayer Leverkusen will define Die Roten’s title credentials. They failed to win both games last season. Xabi Alonso’s team clinched an emphatic 3-0 win in Leverkusen against Bayern to lay down the marker in the title race last season.
Bayern will face Bayer Leverkusen on September 28. A strong performance and result will help in sending out a strong statement to all rivals in the Bundesliga.
Apart from games against Dortmund and Leverkusen, the Bavarian faithful will hope to see an improvement from Die Roten in away games. They struggled against good teams away from home, which included a 5-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt and a 3-1 defeat at VfB Stuttgart. Die Roten surrendered the advantage in this game, collapsing once the home teams were dominating on the pitch.
Bundesliga prediction for Bayern
After a dismal last season, Bayern Munich will bounce back this season and regain the Bundesliga title. They will go on to accumulate 85-90 points to seal the title. There will be significant improvement defensively, and Harry Kane will win the Golden Boot for the second consecutive season.
