Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund tips and predictions: No Kane, no problem in Der Klassiker

The Bavarians can kiss the title goodbye if they fail to win against Borussia Dortmund, while the visitors are battling RB Leipzig for the final Champions League spot.

Thomas Tuchel’s side are 10 points behind Bayer Leverkusen after dropping points in three of their previous four away games.

On the other hand, Bayern are strong at home, winning 10 of their previous 11 and scoring 42 goals.

Tuchel’s men scored 24 goals against Lazio, Darmstadt, Mainz, Leipzig, Borussia Monchengladbach and Augsburg in their most recent six wins.

Harry Kane has scored 37 times in all competitions but may miss this game due to injury.

Edin Terzic’s visitors have been inconsistent in 2024. They’ve won six of 10 but also suffered setbacks against Hoffenheim, PSV, Wolfsburg and Heidenheim.

The recent head-to-head results make for dire reading for Dortmund. They’ve lost nine of 10, drawn once and suffered a 4-0 loss in the reverse fixture.
