Bayern Munich aims to continue their dominance in the Bundesliga this week when they take on Greuther Furth. The match schedules for Friday at the Sportpark Ronhorf Sommer with kickoff at 9:30 pm.
The hosts are in their worst form in the league without a win in their last nine matches across all competitions. On the other hand, Bayern Munich comes off a 7-0 thrashing at the hands of VfL Bochum.
Greuther secured a return to the top flight of German football by finishing second in 2. Bundesliga last term, with 64 points from 34 matches, seeing them claim runner-up spot behind Bochum and take home Greuther Fussball Club Cup Winners’ Shield at year-end.
It is unfair to judge Greuther by their results against the bigger sides this season, but it will be difficult for them not only to beat Bayern on Friday night in Germany’s second-tier league tournament.
Furthermore, avoid returning there themselves; they must find a way around these other teams who are all putting up tough fights.
Bayern, on the other hand, is unstoppable of late. They have won each one of their last seven matches in all competitions, including a 7-0 win against Bochum at home recently.
It’s a tough opening few days for Bayern as they face two difficult opponents in the Bundesliga. After their next international break, Hakki is confident that his side will pull together and beat Greuther Furth.
