Union Berlin vs Werder Bremen Prediction: Bundesliga Match Match on 27.05.2023

Bundesliga Preview

Bayern Munich will be aware that they will be relying on favours from elsewhere if they are to end the campaign as the German champions. They come into the final round of matches sitting second in the standings, with Borussia Dortmund currently boasting a two-point advantage at the summit. Bayern’s defeat last weekend against RB Leipzig could ultimately cost them the title in Thomas Tuchel’s first season in charge. Bayern only had themselves to blame against Leipzig last week, as they took an early lead through Serge Gnabry after just 25 minutes. However, they were made to pay for holding onto that advantage, with Leipzig scoring three inside the final half an hour. It has been a disappointing campaign overall for Bayern, but a trophy-less campaign is unlikely to go down well with the hierarchy. [news_button][/news_button] FC Köln shouldn’t be underestimated this weekend, as they have been in excellent form in their own right. They come into the final weekend of the season looking to secure a finish in the top half of the standings, and they should be full of confidence after going three matches without a defeat in the Bundesliga. A victory could see them end the campaign in ninth, but only if Mainz lose and there is a three-goal swing in their favour. Köln will be looking to bounce back from a draw in their previous match, as they played out a 1-1 tie against Werder Bremen away from home.

FC Köln vs Bayern Munich Head to Head

Bayern Munich has an excellent record against Köln, as they are unbeaten in 17 league matches against their rivals. They have also landed victories in nine of their last ten fixtures against Köln. However, the one exception to that rule did come in the previous encounter, as the sides played out a 1-1 draw in January.

FC Köln vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Bayern Munich will need to keep Dortmund honest until the final kick on the last day, which means that they will need to do their job on the road against Köln. We find it challenging to overlook the visitors, as they boast an excellent record against their opponents this weekend. Make sure to bet on FC Köln vs Bayern Munich with 22Bet!

The final round of Bundesliga fixtures this season will see Bochum have home advantage for the visit of Bayer Leverkusen. The hosts must claim maximum points this weekend if they are to have any hope of avoiding relegation. Meanwhile, Leverkusen must win to secure a place in the Europa League.

Stuttgart vs Hoffenheim Prediction: Bundesliga Match Match on 27.05.2023

Bundesliga Preview

Both Bochum and Bayer Leverkusen come into this final fixture of the season needing something to achieve their target for the season. The greater emphasis will be on Bochum, as they could drop into the automatic relegation places this weekend. At present, they sit in the relegation playoff spot, but they are only outside of the automatic places by one point. A victory could lift them out of the bottom three, providing that neither Augsburg or Stuttgart pick up maximum points.

Bochum should come into this fixture in good confidence, as they have lost just once over their previous four. However, they have landed just one victory over the same period. Last weekend, they spurned an excellent opportunity to enhance their survival chances, as they could only play out a 1-1 draw on the road against Hertha Berlin.

Bayer Leverkusen will also be battling for vital points this weekend, as they look to secure their spot in next season’s Europa League. They come into this match sitting sixth, but they are just a point better off than Wolfsburg, and two clear of Eintracht Frankfurt.

Their recent form would be the biggest concern for Leverkusen this weekend, as they have failed to win across their previous four matches in the Bundesliga. Draws have been a recurring issues over that period, as they have been held on three occasions. Their most recent tie came at home against Borussia Monchengladbach.

Bochum vs Bayer Leverkusen Head to Head

Bayer Leverkusen has won three of the previous six clashes between these sides. However, all their victories have been recorded at BayArena. That includes a 2-0 win in the previous encounter this term. Each of the previous two matches between the sides at Bochum have ended in draws. Meanwhile, Bochum has scored just once in their previous four clashes with Leverkusen since 2010.

Bochum vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction

This certainly looks to be one of the more testing games in the Bundesliga to predict this weekend, as Leverkusen’s recent form is a huge concern. But, we will lean on the trend of draws in Bochum home matches, as that could be a likely outcome.
