Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction 01.11.2025 | Bundesliga

Domestically this season, Bayern Munich have established themselves as an unstoppable force, sweeping aside all in their path on the road to another championship crown. The Bavarians boast a flawless record of eight wins from eight, placing them firmly at the top of the table.

The Munich machine has already built a five-point cushion over their nearest title challengers and shows no intention of letting anyone close, with a ruthless attacking line led by main executor Harry Kane, racking up an astonishing 30 goals while conceding just four.

Belgian tactician Vincent Kompany has undoubtedly shaped Bayern into a dominant powerhouse not just domestically, but in every competition they have entered, having won all 14 of their competitive matches so far this season. Their most recent triumph came in a 4-1 dismantling of FC Koln in the DFB-Pokal, securing another step forward in the cup campaign.

Facing the 2023-24 German champions, Bayern will be without the services of Hiroki Ito, Alphonso Davies, and young star Jamal Musiala, while 17-year-old winger Wisdom Mike is away on international duty with Germany at the U17 World Cup.

The next side looking to disrupt Bayern Munich’s unstoppable momentum is Bayer Leverkusen, a team that has been revitalized under the guidance of Kasper Hjulmand. Their impact is clear — five wins and a draw from six Bundesliga outings speak volumes about the Dane’s influence.

Unlike the Munich machine, which wrapped up its cup tie with ease, Die Werkself endured a gruelling midweek encounter, conceding a stoppage-time equalizer before staging a dramatic extra-time comeback to defeat second-tier Paderborn 4-2 and secure progression in the DFB-Pokal.

Although considered outsiders for Saturday’s clash, Leverkusen will enter the game believing in their chances to halt Bayern’s phenomenal Bundesliga run. Their confidence is bolstered by the fact that they have not returned home empty-handed in 37 consecutive top-flight away trips (W25 D12) — an achievement few can match.

However, head coach Kasper Hjulmand will be forced to navigate the fixture without several key figures, including Equi Fernandez, Exequiel Palacios, Malik Tillman, and right-winger Nathan Tella, all sidelined with injuries, while former Real Madrid defender Lucas Vazquez remains doubtful.
