The champions travel to Hamburger for a league clash with struggling hosts.
Hamburger take on the champions Bayern Munich in the round 5 match of German Bundesliga. The match will be played at Volksparkstadion (Hamburg) on Saturday, September 24th.
Hamburger and Bayern Munich remain the only two teams who played in top division since the very first season until now. However, Hamburger don’t belong to leading group of the team in recent years. On contrary, they are involved in relegation battles and top-10 finish is already big success for them. Yet again, Hamburger started the season awfully with only one point gained and three defeats in recent three matches with 1-8 on aggregate. Of course, the place in relegation zone looks well-deserved. The team struggle to create chances while defense play below any expectations.
Bayern Munich enjoy their form at the start of new season. They thrash their league opponents one by one and allowing almost no goals. The team have also won the Supercup and started the Champions League group stage with 5-0 win over Rostov. Bayern Munich are on 10-match undefeated streak with eight wins and two draws recorded since the end of April.
Hamburger took their most recent win over Munich side in 2011. The opponents met 14 times since then and drew only two of these games with 12 wins take by the champions. Moreover, the recent four ended with 18-2 on aggregate. Of course, we should expect nothing but another confident win of Ancelotti’ side.
Prediction for the match: Bayern Munich to win with -1,5 Asian handicap.
