Bayern Munich take on the visitors Borussia Dortmund in the round 26 match of Germany Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, April 1st at Allianz Arena (Munich).
Bayern decided to change their coach before the home stretch - obviously, nerves got the best of management, from Kahn to Salihamidzic. Their concern is more than justified. What did Julian Nagelsmann show after his record transfer from RB Leipzig? Last season, he achieved what was already part of the "mandatory program", such as securing the "silver salad bowl". But no one has forgotten the terrible collapse in the cup in Mönchengladbach and the elimination from the previous Champions League by Villarreal. Now it seems like there's every chance of winning the treble. For example, this time they not only won their group in the main European cup, but also confidently defeated star-studded PSG in the round of 16. However, in the Bundesliga, "the southern star" was constantly troubled, which prevented them from pulling away as usual by spring. On the contrary, after another slip-up, a 1-2 loss to "Bayer", the grand team missed out on the top spot in the table. This, apparently, became fateful. Last week, Nagelsmann was unexpectedly replaced by Tuchel. Coming to Chelsea, Thomas won the Champions League "right away". Obviously, they won't be against repeating something similar now.

Borussia Dortmund are already perceived as the "No. 2 force" in German football. Last season, after bringing in Marco Rose, the team was able to reclaim its status as the country's vice-champion. However, overall, they quickly became disillusioned with this specialist and decided to part ways with him, bringing Terzic back as the full-fledged head coach, no longer as an interim. It is worth noting the patience of the project's management, as by November the results were frankly mediocre. But starting from winter, after a prolonged break, "The Hornets" won 10 consecutive victories in all tournaments. However, the Germans were abruptly brought back to earth by "Chelsea". After losing 0-1 in Dortmund, they won at home, scoring 2 unanswered goals, and made it to the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Now, "Borussia" will focus on the domestic arena. There was still one setback after the exit from European competition: the "Ruhr Derby" with "Schalke" ended in a disappointing 2-2 draw. Nevertheless, before the suspension of the club season, the team was able to boost morale for both themselves and the fans. There was a home victory over "Cologne" with a score of 6-1. And, most importantly, a slip-up by "Bayern" in a parallel match allowed Terzic's charges to take sole possession of 1st place. But they still have to defend it, starting with a face-to-face confrontation away.
Bayern had taken 8 consecutive victories over "Borussia". And only in October of last year did "Borussia" manage to take a draw at home, equalizing from 0-2 in the 92nd minute. However, the visitors played with ten men for quite a long time. The hosts are considered clear favorites in this confrontation. However, the guests will not give up the victory so easily, so you can bet on Dortmund's "Borussia" with a handicap of "+1.5 goals".
Prediction for the match: Borussia Dortmund to win with +1.5 handicap.
