Bayern Munich take on the visitors Bayer Leverkusen at “Allianz Arena” in the opening match of the German Bundesliga of 2017/2018 season. The game will be played in Munich on Friday, August 18th.
Last season Bayern Munich won another champion title of Germany’s elite division. This summer the Munches’ squad has undergone through the great changes as Philipp Lahm, Xabi Alonso and Douglas Costa won’t play for the club this season with Corentin Tolisso, Sebastian Rudy, Niklas Sule and James Rodriguez joining the German grand instead. Bayern Munich didn’t impress while playing friendly clashes, however, both official fights after the summer break were quite successful for the side: a win by penalty shoot-outs over Borussia Dortmund after 2:2 draw in statutory playing time in the Germany’s Super Cup and 5:0 triumph over Chemnitzer in the first match within the DFB Pokal.

For Bayer Leverkusen have failed previous season as the club didn’t qualify for the Eurocups while having lost its leaders in each squad’s line: Omer Toprak, Hakan Calhanoglu and Chicharito departed from Bayer Leverkusen. This season the team has conducted only one game, having defeated Karlsruhe 3:0 in extra time after 0:0 draw in the main time in the DFB Pokal.
Bayern Munich have not been beaten by Bayer Leverkusen across four recent head-to-heads, having won the last four clashes at the home ground with 8:2 aggregated score. Taking into consideration the difference in class as well as the fact the visiting side has become weaker this summer, I believe that the defending champion will enter the new season in Bundesliga taking three points.
Prediction for the match: Bayern Munich to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
