Command Analysis

Bayern Munich

Germany

Bayern started the new season in Monchengladbach with a match against Borussia. In the recent years Bavarians had some problems in matches at that stadium and now they failed to win once again - Colts kept the 1:1 draw at home. In the current week Julian Nagelsmann won the first trophy in his career - Bayern beat Borussia Dortmund in the German Super Cup (3:1).

FC Koeln

Germany

Koln performed badly in the German Cup - Steffen Baumgart's team barely avoided a defeat in the match against Carl Zeiss Jena from the Regional league. But Billy Goats managed to keep the 1:1 draw and managed to advance into the next round after a victory in the penalty shoot-out. First round of Bundesliga was more successful for Koln - team beat Hertha at home, despite conceding first (3:1).

Tip and bets

1.61Handicap (-2) on Bayern

Bayern failed to record a victory in the first round and dropped points, so the second slip-up would be too much. In the Super Cup Bayern put up a great performance, even despite rotation, hosts are an obvious favourite. Teams are nowhere near each other right now, so Billy Goats are unlikely to make a sensation.

Our prediction - Asian handicap (-2) on Bayern

Do you agree with this bet?

1.77total over 3.5 goals

Bayern have a great offensive line, so they will probably play offensively today. Koln's defensive line is far from perfect, Billy Goats conceded a goal even in the match against the Regional league team, so favourite should be able to beat the total of three goals.

Our second bet is on total over 3.5 goals
