FC Bayern München vs Magdeburg Preview
FC Bayern München head into this DFB Pokal second round clash as defending cup holders, and their recent form backs up that pedigree. The Bavarians have won three and drawn two of their last five matches, showing consistency at both ends of the pitch. Playing at the Allianz Arena, where they rarely slip up, Vincent Kompany's side will be eager to avoid any cup upset as they begin their title defence in earnest.
1. FC Magdeburg arrive in Munich as the classic underdog in a David vs. Goliath cup tie. The 2. Bundesliga outfit recorded a win in their most recent outing, which should give them some confidence. History offers a sliver of hope: back in 2000/01, Magdeburg famously eliminated Bayern on penalties at this very stage. Repeating that feat, however, looks a monumental task given the gulf in quality between the two squads heading into this fixture.
Bayern's recent run of four wins and a draw from their last five outings tells you everything about where they stand right now. The Bavarians are operating at a level that makes this classic David vs Goliath cup tie look like a formality. Magdeburg, competing in the 2. Bundesliga, have a solitary recent result to reference, and the gulf in quality between these two sides is enormous.
The home win at 1.04 reflects a market that sees virtually no path to an upset for the visitors. Bayern's firepower should produce goals in bunches here, making the over 2.5 goals market at 1.17 an attractive proposition. History does offer Magdeburg one famous memory: a penalty shootout triumph over Bayern in the 2000/01 DFB Pokal. That result, though, belongs to a different era entirely.
A straight home win is the pick at 1.04, backed by Bayern's dominance and their hunger to defend the trophy. The over 2.5 goals line at 1.17 complements it well given Bayern's attacking depth against second-tier opposition. Expect the hosts to be clinical and comprehensive at the Allianz Arena.
