On paper this game is already decided and everything is pointing towards Bayern Munich running away with the game. While I do see Bayern Munich running away with the game, I doubt the line at -2.5 will be covered and I doubt the over will be reached. I look for Bayern Munich to win on the money line, but also for the game to go under as the Bayern Munich club may take advantage of a fairly weak defense relatively speaking to rest some of the major stars here.
