Preview: Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich Prediction, lineups, betting tips and odds | Bundesliga 2025-26

The Werkself have failed to secure a goal in their last four games against the Bavarians.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen are now going to lock horns with Bayern Munich for their matchweek 26 contest of the 2025-26 Bundesliga. This is going to be a high-voltage clash, which is scheduled to take place at the BayArena.

The Werkself have been performing decently as of now, but in the upcoming game, they will surely need something special. They held an in-form Arsenal to a draw in their UEFA Champions League clash. Bayer Leverkusen will be at home once again, but it is not going to make things any easier for them.

Bayern Munich continue their phenomenal run of form and despite being away from home, they will be fully confident. They secured a dominating 6-1 win against Atalanta in their UCL outing, that too while being away from home. The Vincent Kompany-led side have already defeated Leverkusen once this season and will be looking to put up another strong show.

Kick-off:

• Location: Leverkusen, Germany
• Stadium: BayArena
• Date: Saturday, March 14
• Kick-off Time: 08:00 PM IST/ 02:30 PM GMT/ 09:30 AM IST/ 06:30 AM PT

Form:

Leverkusen: D-D-W-D-D

Munich: W-W-W-W-W

Players to Watch

Martin Terrier (Bayer Leverkusen)

Despite not scoring any goals in the previous matchup, Martin Terrier was a good influence on the field for Bayer 04 Leverkusen. He was good in both the midfield and the attacking front, causing continuous trouble to Arsenal’s defence.

The 29-year-old will be looking to step up his game and come up with a top performance to help his side stand a chance against the Bavarians.

Michael Olise (Bayern Munich)

Michael Olise has been performing really well since the beginning of this season and will be eager to keep his form going. The Frenchman is not just good at scoring goals, but has also been a class at playmaking.

In the ongoing Bundesliga campaign, he has scored 10 goals and has 16 assists to his name. The 24-year-old is coming in after scoring a brace in the previous Champions League fixture for Bayern Munich.
