German Bundesliga
Date: Saturday, October 17, 2024
Starts at 14:30pm UK / 15:30pm CET
Location: PreZero Arena.

Die Kraichgauer are one of those odd teams that don't get as much attention as some of the titans of Europe's top five leagues, but if they are given a chance they will absolutely humiliate these titans on the field. Take Bayern's 4-1 victory, for example, which ended their long winning streak.

And now, they are going to try to get the double and also piss off Der BVB. Sebastian Hoeneb's men have performed at a high level in recent months and they certainly have the ability to beat the second best team in Germany.

On top of that, they also have a great h2h record recently over Lucien Favre's men.

Chances are, during a rare weekend, Der BVB are not favorites in a game.

Still, it is too risky to bet against them, and the logical option would be to look for other markets. And the target market is certainly an attractive option.

The teams have a bitter rivalry with each other and are offensively ahead of most teams in the competition. Furthermore, previous encounters with h2h also produced many goals.

For those reasons, expect a high-scoring game this weekend at PreZero Arena.
