However, FC Köln comes into their final match of the season in solid form, and could end the campaign in the top half. [banner][/banner] 

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!

Coronation day could come at Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, as a victory will secure a first Bundesliga title since 2012. Mainz will be the visitors looking to spoil the party, but they come into this fixture having lost each of their last four matches.

 

Bundesliga Preview

Bayern Munich’s ten-year dominance in the Bundesliga looks set to come to an end this weekend, as Borussia Dortmund could be crowned German champions for the first time since 2012. It has been an excellent season for the team, as they have kicked on this term, despite having lost Erling Haaland to Manchester City last summer. Dortmund has been excellent over recent weeks, as they have recorded three successive wins to move within a victory of winning the top-flight title. 

They were playing under intense pressure last weekend against Augsburg, as they would have been aware that a win would put the destination of the title in their hands. However, they rose to that pressure in excellent fashion in the second half. Sebastien Haller netted twice for Dortmund, while Julian Brandt finished the scoring in the 94th minute.

Mainz could be the ideal team to come up against this weekend, as their players already appear to have downed tools. Their push for a European place came to an end last weekend, as they suffered a fourth successive defeat in the Bundesliga, but they could yet end the campaign as high as eighth in the overall standings. 

Defensively, they have been really poor since landing a 3-1 home win over Bayern Munich. In their previous four matches, they have 13 goals, and scored just three. Last weekend, they were thumped 4-1 in their final home game of the season by Stuttgart. 

Borussia Dortmund vs Mainz Head to Head 

Dortmund boasts an excellent record in this fixture, as they have won each of their last four fixtures against Mainz. The most recent of those was a 2-1 win in January. However, they have landed just one win in their previous three home matches against their rivals this weekend. 

Borussia Dortmund vs Mainz Prediction 

It has been an excellent season for Dortmund, and we fully expect them to end the campaign as German champions. Mainz’s recent form is a massive concern, and we could see the party getting underway on Saturday following a comfortable 3-0 win for the hosts.
