Bayern Munich vs Mainz Match Prediction 14 December 2025
Bayern Munich have been a dominant force in this fixture, and facing a side currently struggling for consistency should be a walk in the park.
The Bavarians currently lead the Bundesliga in terms of goals scored (GF 49). Harry Kane has been responsible for 17 of those goals and is also the top goalscorer. In his recent league game, he bagged a hat-trick, and considering his red-hot form at the moment, I expect the talisman to get on the scoreboard and score more than once.
Our match prediction: Multi Scorers (2 or more) - Harry Kane for a coefficient of 2.60 in the Bet365 bookmaker.
Our betting tip on the match: Both Teams To Score - Yes for a coefficient of 1.96 in the 1xbet bookmaker.
Our final betting tip on the match: Correct Score - Bayern Munich 3:1 Mainz for a coefficient of 11.00 in the Betway bookmaker.
