Best Tip: Bayern to win

Studying the bookies' odds and collated stats regarding both teams ahead of this Bundesliga game, a bet on win / draw / win for Bayern to win in front of their own fans is what we would suggest. We predict they'll have too much for Wolfsburg, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have done in the past. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Bayern winning is the bet come Saturday afternoon.
