Bet Live on Football: The Bundesliga Returns with Bayern Munich vs. Wolfsburg

The German Bundesliga kicks off at Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena where reigning champion will host Wolfsburg (7:30pm UK time). The Bundesliga will certainly draw more attention this season after Germany's national team made history and won the World Cup in Brazil. Bayern and Wolfsburg have met last month in the Telekom Cup final where Bayern won 3-0 with two goals by new striker Robert Lewandowski.

Bayern Munich

Last season  Bayern Munich dominated the Bundesliga having secured its second successive championship title with seven matches remaining in the season. The Bavarians finished 19 points ahead of the second position Dortmund, also the team's biggest rivals. The numbers were spectacular: Bayern scored 94 goals while only conceding 23, and won 29 games out of 34 in total. Although a favorite for today's match, Bayern will have to do without some key players including Bastian Schweinsteiger, Jerome Boateng, Javi Martinez and Franck Ribery. Yet, Guardiola will have goalscorers Thomas Muller and Robert Lewandowski on the front.

Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg is aware of Bayern's lacking squad and they certainly will try to take advantage of that. The team finished in the fifth position last season with 60 point composed of 18 wins, 6 draws and 10 loses, having scored 63 goals and conceding 50. Wolfsburg is still bruised from its 1-5 friendly loss to Atletico Madrid earlier this month, and it will most likely miss key players like striker Nicklas Bendtner, goalie Diego Benaglio and Sebastian Jung who moved from Eintracht Frankfurt.
