Bundesliga 2021/22 Matchweek 24 betting tips & top parlay bet

The top two teams in Bundesliga will try to avoid slip-ups on the road this weekend as Bayern Munich visits Eintracht Frankfurt this Saturday and Borussia Dortmund visits FC Augsburg this Sunday. Here’s a look at these two matches and Saturday’s Union Berlin vs Mainz 05 matchup in this weekend’s Bundesliga soccer Matchweek 24 best bets.

Union Berlin vs. Mainz 05

Union Berlin (9-7-7) climbed all the way up to fourth place on the Bundesliga table with a 3-2-0 run through late December and early January. That run has given way to an ugly 0-0-3 slump that has seen Berlin get outscored 6-0 over those three losses in a stretch that includes two of the league’s worst teams in Arminia Bielefeld and FC Augsburg. Mainz 05 meanwhile is going in the opposite direction with a 2-1-0 run over its last three matches since going 3-0-5 over its previous eight matches.

If Saturday’s game were being held at Mainz 05’s home stadium of Mewa Arena, we’d be taking Mainz here. But location matters. Berlin’s ugly losses to Arminia and Augsburg came on the road, and Mainz’s impressive upset over Bayer Leverkusen last weekend came at home. Mainz is 1-0-5 over its last six road games and lost to Union Berlin 2-1 when these two clubs last met. The betting line seems to be weighing recent form far more heavily than location, so let’s take advantage with a play on the home team.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich (18-1-4) followed up its 4-2 loss on the road to VfL Bochum with a 4-1 win on Sunday at home over Greuther Furth. Despite a handful of odd losses this season, Bayern is still clearly Bundesliga’s best club, out in first by a six point margin, leading the league in goals with 74 and tied for the best goals against with 26 goals conceded through 23 matches.

It has been an up and down season for Eintracht Frankfurt (8-7-8), who opened the season with a 1-6-3 run, followed that up with an impressive 6-1-0 run, and has since gone just 1-1-4 over its last six matches. Interestingly enough, Frankfurt’s only win during its first 10 games was a stunning 2-1 win over Bayern Munich. We like the UNDER in this matchup; four of Frankfurt’s last five matches have produced two goals or fewer as the team has been shut out in three of its last four. Bayern winning by scores like 1-0, 2-0 and 2-1 all seem highly plausible, so we’ll go with the UNDER 3.5 goals.

FC Augsburg vs. Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund (16-1-6) has bounced back from its 5-2 loss at home to Bayer Leverkusen earlier this month in impressive fashion with a 3-0 road win over Union Berlin and a 6-0 win at home over Monchengladbach. Marco Reus has scored a pair of goals in each of those two wins. FC Augsburg (5-7-11) meanwhile was unable to build on the momentum of its 2-0 win over Berlin, dropping its last two games to Monchengladbach and SC Freiburg.

Dortmund is in great form with a 5-1 record over its last six matches that includes a 3-0-0 record on the road. It’s surprising to see the league’s second best team going off at just -190 against a team currently on the brink of relegation. A play on Borussia Dortmund -1 seems reasonable, but we’ll pay the extra chalk to play for the win on a one-goal game on the moneyline with the bettingsites.
