Leverkusen claimed their first-ever Bundesliga title last season, upsetting perennial champions Bayern in the process. The upcoming clash between the two teams in the current season presents Bayern with an opportunity to make a statement. Leverkusen had a flawless run in the Bundesliga last season but suffered a defeat to RB Leipzig early in the new season. They have secured victories against Gladbach, Hoffenheim, and Wolfsburg, and also impressed in the Champions League with a 4-0 win over Feyenoord. In terms of injuries, Leverkusen's only concern has been Exequiel Palacios, who is nearing full fitness after a recent cameo appearance off the bench. On the other hand, Bayern have been in excellent form under Vincent Kompany, winning all their matches across various competitions. They set a record in the Champions League with a 9-2 win over Dinamo Zagreb. Bayern's injury list includes Sacha Boey and Manuel Neuer, but they welcomed forward Arijon Ibrahimovic back to training. Key players to watch in the match include Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz, who has been in fine form with four goals in his last three games, and Bayern's Harry Kane, who has scored an impressive 10 goals in his last four appearances. The prediction for the match is a 3-2 victory for Bayern, with the betting tips suggesting both teams will score and over 2.5 goals will be scored. Additionally, Harry Kane is tipped to score first based on his recent goal-scoring exploits.
