Good day to you, dear friends! Today will witness Bundesliga matches that are sure to impress us with some interesting moments and outcomes. I'd like to delve into the 26th round game between Darmstadt 98 and Bayern Munich with you. This fixture will take place at the Böllenfalltor Stadium.
Darmstadt 98: Schuhen; Skarke, Klarer, Zimmermann, Maglica, Karic; Justvan, Kempe, Franjic, Holtmann; Polter.
Bayern Munich: Neuer; Kimmich, De Ligt, Dier, Guerreiro; Pavlovic, Goretzka; Sane, Muller, Musiala; Kane.
What can be said about the Lilies? They were Bundesliga 2 finalists last season and earned promotion to Germany's top division. This new league has proven challenging for the club. They now sit in the relegation zone, occupying the 18th position in the league table. Over 25 rounds, the lads have only managed to pick up 13 points.
It's worth noting that they've conceded more goals than any other team – 60. They've scored just 24. Their defence is indeed problematic, and they are also struggling offensively. In their most recent Bundesliga encounter, they suffered a crushing defeat to Augsburg, conceding six unanswered goals.
Let's discuss the squad that is heading toward their 12th title this season. Or perhaps not... Currently, Bayern Munich sits second in the table with 57 points to their name. They trail Bayer Leverkusen by 10 points. Until the 21st of January, their only defeat came at the hands of Eintracht Frankfurt, losing at home with a scoreline of 5:1 in early December.
During the 18th round, they faced Werder Bremen at home, where they suffered their second defeat, allowing the solitary goal of the match. This was followed by losses to Bayer Leverkusen and Bochum, letting in 3 and 2 goals respectively. Their goal difference is 73 against 29. In the Champions League, they achieved a victory over Lazio, netting 3 unanswered goals. In their latest Bundesliga clash, they thumped Mainz, finding the back of the net 8 times, with 1 conceded.
In their latest direct encounter, back on the 28th of October last year, Bayern Munich emerged victorious over Darmstadt 98, netting 8 unanswered goals.
So, let's sum up our analysis. To me, it seems quite evident that even at home, Darmstadt 98 will be unable to match Bayern Munich. The levels of the two teams are simply too disparate. I am betting on the away team's first-half handicap (-1).
Of course, I anticipate Bayern Munich to net quite a few goals in this fixture, just as they did in their previous one. I would put my stake on the total over 3. Best of luck to you all, and enjoy the match, dear friends!
