Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich Prediction and Betting Tips | March 19, 2023 

FC Bayern München v Bayer 04 Leverkusen - Bundesliga
Leverkusen host Bayern in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

Bayern Munich visit the BayArena to face Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga on Sunday (March 19), looking to extend their winning run in the league to four games.

After losing 3-2 to their bogey team Borussia Monchengladbach, the Bavarians have recaptured their mojo, making light work of Union Berlin, VfB Stuttgart and Augsburg.

Interspersed between those wins was a 2-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League as Julian Naglesmann's side booked their place in the quarterfinals.

Only two points separate Bayern and their nearest rivals Borussia Dortmund atop the Bundesliga. Bayern, looking to win their 11th consecutive Meisterschale, will look to keep the pressure on their closest rivals.

Leverkusen, meanwhile, are down in ninth position following a disappointing campaign, accruing only 34 points from 24 games, but have shown improvement lately.

Die Werkself are coming off consecutive wins over Hertha Berlin (4-1) and Werder Bremen (3-2). Between those wins are a pair of UEFA Europa League victories over Ferencvaros (2-0 home and away) to reach the last eight.
