The Bundesliga's best meet at the BayArena
Top of the table tussle
This mouth watering clash between the two sides who were occupying the top two places in the Bundesliga has been set up to be a classic. Bayer Leverkusen have been led by starboy Florian Wirtz and, coupled with Patrick Schick continuing his Euro 2020 form into the domestic season, Leverkusen have been very impressive so far. Gerardo Seoane couldn't have wished for a much better start in Leverkusen, and they seem like the side most likely to push Bayern all the way alongside Borussia Dortmund.
Bavarians business as usual?
Julian Nagelsmann experienced somewhat of a reality check after his sides loss to Eintracht Frankfurt just before the international break, putting a blemish on their otherwise perfect start. He'll be very keen for Bayern to bounce back and ensure that this loss was a blip that'll be forgotten about quickly, rather than a result that sets a trend for the season. However, a loss against Leverkusen will give the rest of the league plenty more confidence that Bayern are there for the taking.
Nagelsmann not getting complacent
While Bayern come into this game as strong favourites, Leverkusen will have a heap of confidence that they can take the game to the champions. Two of the top scoring sides in the league sets up what should be a fantastic game for the neutral, with such an intriguing tie coupled with a tonne of goals. But Bayern have been here before, over and over again. They've seen off countless pretenders to their throne and I can see them asserting their dominance over German football once more on Sunday afternoon.
This game should bring us lots of goals, and hopefully at both ends. That's why I'm going with a Bayern Munich win coupled with BTTS with bet365.

This game was...unexpected. The tip comes through, but a stunning first half from Bayern which saw them 0-5 up at the break had me worried. However Schick pulled one back for the hosts.
