The 21st matchday of the Bundesliga will be completed at 8.30 pm in the “Allianz Arena”. FC Bayern München will meet Arminia Bielefeld. The cards before the match are on the table. The league leader is the house-high favorite against the promoted team. Even a close result in Munich would almost amount to a sensation.

The last time Arminia visited Munich, their opponents still had Lukas Podolski and Miroslav Klose on the pitch. The point shows that the head-to-head comparison has no direct significance. Nevertheless, it sets the pace for the Bundesliga betting tip very, very clearly. Bielefeld has only won once in German football history, and that was in 1979. The champions won the first leg on the Alm quite easily and effortlessly with 4:1. Will there be more on Monday evening?
FC Bayern Munich – the form check
With a look at the past results and above all at the table, the answer to the question is quite simply “yes”. No, the Bavarians don’t play their magic football in every match, but they do win consistently. The best example of results football was in the previous week in the capital, in the close but ultimately deserved 1:0 victory at Hertha BSC.
At the moment, the German champions have a seven-point lead over RB Leipzig. Logically, nothing should change in the top starting position on Monday evening.

Injured and suspended players
It can be assumed that Hansi Flick will spare some of his regular players against Bielefeld after the travel stress of the last few days. The coach has every option. The Munich team reports neither injured nor suspended players.
Arminia Bielefeld – the form check
Let’s look on the bright side. Armenia will travel to Munich well-rested. The previous week’s match at home against SV Werder Bremen fell victim to the weather. The break should have done the promoted team good. The 1:5 at home against Frankfurt and the 1:3 in Cologne were very, very bitter pills – at a moment when the trend was actually positive.
Coach Uwe Neuhaus will not really be counting on points in Munich. The newcomer will have to get the necessary points in the relegation battle elsewhere. For the visitors, the only thing that matters in the Allianz Arena is to keep the result within tolerable bounds.
