Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen: Five Matches to Determine the Bundesliga Champion

The Bundesliga 2024/2025 season is approaching its thrilling conclusion, with Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen vying for the championship. After Bayern’s recent Champions League elimination, they are focused on securing their only remaining chance at silverware this season. Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen team, despite their own cup disappointment, are determined to defend their title from last year.

Bayern Munich, still considered favorites, hold a 6-point lead over Leverkusen. However, their inconsistent form this season has kept the title race alive. The Bavarians are eager to end their trophy drought, while star striker Harry Kane hopes to claim his first major trophy as a professional.

Leverkusen, under Alonso’s guidance, have been solely focused on the league for weeks. They know they must win all their remaining matches and hope for a Bayern slip-up to have a chance at retaining their title.

Adding intrigue to the situation, Xabi Alonso’s name has been heavily linked with the Real Madrid managerial position, should Carlo Ancelotti depart. However, the Spanish coach remains committed to finishing the season strongly with Leverkusen before considering his future.

Bayern Munich:
– Heidenheim (Away)

Bayer Leverkusen:
