German 1.Bundesliga 21/22 Matchday 18 Predictions

The 2021/22 Bundesliga season will move into its 2nd half following the winter-break on the 3rd of January 2022. At the top-end of the league-table, Bayern went into the midseason interval with a 9-point advantage over 2nd placed Borussia Dortmund. Freiburg lie 5 points further back in 3rd spot with Bayer Leverkusen trailing by another point to hold 4th position in the standings at the end of the year. Meanwhile Augsburg moved out of the bottom-3 leaving Stuttgart, Arminia Bielefeld and Greuther Fürth in the drop-zone.

FC Bayern München v VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach

Zodiac Bet Football Betting Odds
Bayern: 1.18
Draw: 6.75
M’gladbach: 11.0

Bayern has taken 9 wins from its last 10 league-matches to put itself in a commanding position for a 10th straight Bundesliga title. M’gladbach is only a couple of points above the relegation-zone in 14th spot at the moment.
According to our betting-experts, the 2.35 offer on the home-team in the Win to Nil market certainly warrants some attention. Before going into the break, Bayern notched 5 consecutive victories with 3 clean-sheets. M’gladbach has been all at sea defensively after conceding 18 goals in the previous 5 fixtures while scoring just 3 goals in that duration.
Also, the 1.90 price on the 2nd half in the Highest Scoring Half market looks a good bet here. Up till now, Bayern has produced 2 or more goals during the latter period in 6 of its 8 home-games. Moreover, M’gladbach has allowed 8 goals in the last 45 minutes of its previous 5 league-matches.

Bundesliga Extra Betting Tips
Winning Margin: Bayern 3 Goals at 4.90 on Zodiac Bet
2nd Half Correct Score: Bayern 2-0 M’gladbach at 5.25 on Zodiac Bet

Prediction
Bayern München 3-0 Borussia M’gladbach at 7.50 on Zodiac Bet

SC Freiburg v DSC Arminia Bielefeld

Zodiac Bet Football Betting Odds
Freiburg: 1.57
Draw: 3.90
Bielefeld: 5.25

Freiburg returned to 3rd spot in the Bundesliga table by bagging a precious victory just before heading into the midseason interval. Bielefeld notched back-to-back wins that has taken the club to within 2 points of safety.
For our betting-team, taking the 1.78 option for Under 2.5 Total Goals is one of the best options for this fixture. At home, Freiburg is averaging less than 2 goals per game but it has conceded just 9 goals in its 8 league-matches at Europa-Park Stadion. Bielefeld has the 2nd best defensive-record away from home in the division but has managed 6 goals on the road.

The 1.72 line on Both Teams to Score looks a good pick too. While Freiburg is known for its defensive organisation, it has only managed to earn 1 clean-sheet on home-turf this season. Bielefeld scored 5 goals in its last 4 fixtures to finish the calendar year in reasonably good scoring-form.

Bundesliga Extra Betting Tips
2nd Half First Team to Score: Bielefeld at 3.70 on Zodiac Bet
Result & Both Teams to Score: Draw & Yes at 5.25 on Zodiac Bet

Prediction
Freiburg 1-1 Arminia Bielefeld at 6.00 on Zodiac Bet

Bayer 04 Leverkusen v FC Union Berlin

Zodiac Bet Football Betting Odds
Leverkusen: 1.76
Draw: 3.60
Union: 4.10

Bayer Leverkusen has taken just 3 wins from its past 10 matches in the Bundesliga but stays in the top-4 spots for the moment. Union Berlin has gathered 10 points from its past 6 fixtures to take 7th spot in the table.
The 1.70 offer on Over 2.5 Total Goals is the suggestion of our betting-experts for this clash. Leverkusen has kept only 1 clean-sheet in its past 10 league-matches but is in fine form up front having scored 20 goals during this time. Union also has only 1 clean-sheet on the road this season but has failed to score in just 1 of its previous 8 away-fixtures.
Moreover, the 2.35 line on the home-team for Half Time Result offers a fine chance at striking a bargain. Leverkusen has netted 10 times in the 1st half of its past 6 league-games. Union Berlin has managed to score just 5 goals in the opening period of its 8 away-matches of this campaign.

Bundesliga Extra Betting Tips
1st Half Winning Margin: Leverkusen 1 Goal at 3.40 on Zodiac Bet
2nd Half Both Teams to Score & Total: Yes & Under 2.5 at 6.75 on Zodiac Bet

Prediction
Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 Union Berlin at 7.00 on Zodiac Bet

RB Leipzig v FSV Mainz 05

Zodiac Bet Football Betting Odds
Leipzig: 1.56
Draw: 4.20
Mainz: 4.80

Leipzig lies in the bottom-half of the Bundesliga standings halfway through the season after tasting 4 losses in its past 6 fixtures. Mainz is a couple of points ahead in the table despite taking 3 defeats in the last 5 games.
According to our betting-experts, the 2.35 offer on the home-team for the 2nd Half Result is a fine chance for an ample punt. So far, Leipzig has scored 18 times in the latter period of its 8 home-games in the Bundesliga this season. Mainz has managed to score only 3 goals during the last 45 minutes of its 8 league-fixtures on the road.
For a shorter price, the 1.55 line on Both Teams to Score is a decent bet in this encounter. Leipzig has been unable to earn a single clean-sheet in its past 10 Bundesliga matches. On the other hand, Mainz has failed to get a goal in only 1 of its past 10 league-fixtures.

Bundesliga Extra Betting Tips
Both Teams to Score in 2nd Half: Yes at 3.07 on Zodiac Bet
Win Both Halves: Leipzig at 4.40 on Zodiac Bet

Prediction
Leipzig 3-1 Mainz at 7.00 on Zodiac Bet

Eintracht Frankfurt v BVB Borussia Dortmund

Zodiac Bet Football Betting Odds
Frankfurt: 3.40
Draw: 3.80
Dortmund: 1.90

Frankfurt notched 6 wins from the previous 7 league-matches that have pushed the club on to 6th spot in the table. Dortmund has suddenly fallen way out of the title-race after taking just 4 points in the month of December.
The 2.16 offer on the home-side to Win Either Half is the recommendation of our betting-team for this fixture. After going without a win in its first 5 home-games of the Bundesliga, Eintracht has bagged 3 consecutive victories at the Deutsche Bank Arena. Dortmund’s form on the road has been patchy all season, taking just 10 points from its 8 away-games.

The 1.99 price on Over 1.5 Goals for the home-team seems a fine pick here. Frankfurt scored 17 goals in the last 7 matches to finish the 1st half of the season in a strong form. Meanwhile Borussia Dortmund is still looking to take its first clean-sheet away from home.

Bundesliga Extra Betting Tips
2nd Half Result: Draw at 2.70 on Zodiac Bet
Half Time Score: Frankfurt 1-0 Dortmund at 5.40 on Zodiac Bet

Prediction
Eintracht Frankfurt 2-1 Borussia Dortmund at 10.0 on Zodiac Bet
