RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munich Prediction

• Date: 30/07/2022
• Competition: German Super Cup
• KO: 20:30
• Venue: Red Bull Arena (Leipzig)

The German season kicks off on Saturday evening as the Red Bull Arena plays host to the Super Cup Final between RB Leipzig and Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.

An entertaining contest can usually be expected in this fixture, with Bayern appearing in a record 11th successive final dating back to 2011. Winning 5 of the last 6 Super Cups, 4 of the last 5 finals have seen over 2.5 goals scored, including a 3:1 win for Bayern against Dortmund in last season´s final.

Both sides come into the final on the back of pre-season defeats, with Bayern slipping to a 1:0 reversal against Man City last time out while RB suffered a painful 5:0 loss to a rampant Liverpool at this venue last weekend. 

RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munich Betting Tips

For RB, this their first ever Super Cup Final, a tough contest awaits with the home side failing to win any of their last 8 matches against Bayern.

Recent meetings between these sides have also been entertaining affairs with 3 of the last 4 seeing BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored. In fact, 17 goals have been scored in those matches, and with both sides still looking to find their early season form, we expect a less cagey affair than has occurred between these sides in years gone by.

As such, we´ll take a chance on BTTS, and over 2.5 goals landing here, and with home advantage, RB should be able to make this an entertaining and competitive contest that is likely to see goals at both ends.
