FC St. Pauli vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Die Kiezkicker registered their first win since September last week and will look to continue that form here. They are winless in their last nine home games in the Bundesliga and have failed to score in their four home games this season.

Elias Saad, Ben Voll, Philipp Treu, Sascha Burchert, and Sören Ahlers are confirmed absentees for Alexander Blessin. Simon Zoller and Connor Metcalfe have muscle strains and are unlikely to start here.

The Bavarians have enjoyed a good run of form and are on a four-game winning streak, scoring 13 goals without a reply. They have won four of their five Bundesliga away games this season, scoring 22 goals, and are strong favorites.

Hiroki Ito, Sacha Boey, and Josip Stanisic continue to be sidelined with injuries. Aleksandar Pavlović is back in training from an injury spell but is not yet an option for this match. Sven Ulreich was absent from the squad against Benfica and is a doubt.

Considering the contrast in goalscoring form between the two teams and the visitor's dominance in this fixture, Bayern are expected to record a comfortable win.
