Bayern Munich will be desperate to return to winning ways in the Bundesliga when they take on basement boys Greuther Fürth at the Allianz Arena.
By their high standards, it’s been a dreadful last seven days for Bayern Munich as they followed up an embarrassing 4-2 Bundesliga defeat to Bochum with a hard-earned 1-1 draw with RB Salzburg in midweek Champions League action. Indeed, the ‘Bavarians’ have only amassed eight points from their opening five Bundesliga games of 2022, their worst start to the second half of the season in ten years. However, Julian Nagelsmann’s men head into proceedings as overwhelming favourites, having won all five competitive meetings with Greuther Fürth, including a 3-1 thrashing in the reverse fixture earlier this season. Moreover, Bayern have won a league joint-high nine of their 11 Bundesliga home matches this term, scoring a staggering average of three goals per game in the process.
Coming into this matchday, Greuther Fürth claimed a 2-1 home victory over Hertha Berlin, their second win in three Bundesliga matches (L1). That’s one more victory than they had in their opening 19 top-flight fixtures this season (D4, L14), which explains why they currently languish 11 points adrift of safety. Now up against the league’s best defence, the visitors will have to defy their disastrous defensive record this Bundesliga campaign, having conceded a league-high 57 goals so far, at an average of 2.59 per game. Additionally, Stefan Leitl’s men have picked up just a single point from their 11 Bundesliga away clashes this season (D1, L10), returning a humiliating -31 goal difference from such contests (GF:9, GA:40). They have conceded 2+ goals in each of those 11 matches!
