Why you should back Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich remain the class of the league despite a couple of speed bumps following the World Cup break. They have scored 14 more goals than any other Bundesliga team, with 51 in 17 matches. They are also the only team in the league allowing fewer than one goal per game (15). They have outscored their opponents 27-7 at home and are 18-5-2 in league matches on home soil since the start of last season. 

Bayern should come in motivated after the scare against Koln. Joshua Kimmich scored his third goal of the season in the 90th minute to salvage a point and is one of eight Bayern players with at least three goals. Kimmich, Sadio Mane (six goals) and Serge Gnabry (eight) all scored in the 6-1 victory in August, and Jamal Musiala (nine) had a brace. Bayern put 10 of 23 shots on target. Mane is out injured, but Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (seven goals) also can make an impact in attack. 

Why you should back Eintracht Frankfurt 

The Eagles come in with a lot more confidence than Bayern, despite their draw with SC Freiburg on the road. Randal Kolo Muani scored his sixth goal of the season to give Frankfurt the brief lead on Wednesday. They conceded the equalizer five minutes later. Bayern have lost two home games since the start of last season, but one was a 2-1 setback to the Eagles. Frankfurt are 8-2-1 in their past 11 matches in all competitions, with the lone loss to Borussia Dortmund. 

Frankfurt also beat Marseille and Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League during that span to reach the knockout stage for the first time. They have lost one away match in league play and are plus-3 in goal differential on the road (15-12). They have scored the third-most goals (36) in the league, with Jesper Lindstrom and Daichi Kamada leading the team with seven apiece.
