Bayern Munich Players celebrating after a goal

Title Race

Bayern Munich has a four-point lead over second placed Borussia Dortmund. Going by their pedigree and form over the past seasons, they are still top favorites to win the title this season. Dortmund entered the lockdown in better shape, but will be without Axel Witsel and Emre Can. The Black and Yellow return to action with a home fixture to Schalke 04 and are favorites to win this one.

Relegation

The picture at the bottom of the log looks clear, with Paderborn all but been relegated. They face Fortuna Düsseldorf in a big deciding match. Werder Bremen are also in the red and face a tricky fixture against Bayer Leverkusen.

Below, we look at the best bets for you to place your money on. Bongobongo have the best odds on these matches, and you should place your bets now.

Pick 1: Borussia Dortmund vs Schalke

The Revierderby is the highlight this weekend at 4:30PM and with both sides keen to get off to a flyer, this will be an exciting contest.

Dortmund are second on the log,just four points behind leaders Bayern Munich whom they will eye to unseat.
At 37 points, a place in the Europa League is in reach for Schalke but will be cautious to avoid getting caught up by Wolfsburg, Freiburg and Hoffenheim who are just 1 and 2 points
away, respectively.

Before the Covid-19 break, Dortmund were on a four-match winning streak and had also won seven out of the eight fixtures against Schalke, outscoring them 27-9. They also have plenty of attack firepower, with Jordan Sancho, Erling Braut Haaland and Marco Reus scoring a combined 34 goals this year.

The Revierderby is usually a goalfest, though their first meet this season ended in a goalless draw in their past 17 meetings.

Pick 2: Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia Monchengladbach

This will be an exciting match that you should not only bet on but also watch. Frankfurt has the sixth best home record in the Bundesliga, though with the resumption of the season, there will be no advantage of home fans. They are four points off the relegation zoneand will be keen to get maximum points.

Monchengladbach have a powerful defense, having conceded 30 goals this year, and only 14 on the road. They have a chance in the title, though very slim, but have a genuine opportunity to play in the Champions League.

With plenty in line for both sides, we are likely to watch an exciting match filled with goals.

Tip: Over 2.5 Goals, Draw

Pick 3: Werder Bremen vs Bayer Leverkusen
The weekend car concludes on Monday, with 17th placed Werder Bremen hosting fifth-placed Bayer Leverkusen.

Bremen have had an awful season, and their form has been horrible. Their record in the past 10 matches are 1-1-8(WDL) and have scored just 5, conceding 26.

Leverkusen have had a pretty admirable record this season. They are the leagues fifth highest scorers, scoring 45 and conceding 30.  In short, their matches are full of goals.

This is a match with lots at stake for both sides, and we can expect goals with Leverkusen
likely to take the win.
