2023-24 German Bundesliga Soccer Betting

2023-24 German Bundesliga Betting

Founded in 1963, the German Bundesliga is the top professional major league in Germany. The Bundesliga has a strong tradition, following, and quality of play. Also, the betting handle is always strong for Bundesliga matches.

However, the Bundesliga also has a major problem. For a major professional league in a country of great wealth, the Bundesliga has a terrible parity problem. Bayern Munich dominates the Bundesliga to an absurd degree. Until that problem is addressed, the Bundesliga will trail the English Premier League and other major European Leagues in popularity and ability to grow.

Bayern Munich has been the champion every season since 2012-13. Borussia Dortmund was the last club to win the Bundesliga before the Bayern Munich dynasty, with two straight titles in 2010-11 and 2011-12.

Promotion and Relegation

FC Heidenheim will play in the Bundesliga for the first time in its history. While SV Darmstadt 98 has returned to the Bundesliga after a six-season absence. On the other hand, Schalke 04 and Hertha BSC were relegated to Bundesliga 2.

Bayern Munich – The German Behemoth and Dynasty

Bayern Munich is the 11-time defending champion of the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich holds a record 33 national titles overall, far and away the best in the Bundesliga.

A new face took over as manager of Bayern Munich one year ago. In March 2023, Thomas Tuchel arrived from Chelsea of the English Premier League and won the Bundesliga after taking over in-season.

Keep in mind that managers have been fired at the pressure cooker that is Bayern Munich despite winning tiles. The latest man to suffer such a humiliating fate was Julian Nagelsmann, who was sacked in favor of Tuchel. Also, having won a recent championship for Bayern Munich, only to be fired was Hansi Flick. Yet another championship manager, Niko Kovac, departed under fire by mutual agreement.

Thus, Tuchel knows the fire pit that he is stepping into. Tuchel brings plenty of credibility that will hopefully keep the wolves at bay. Tuchel won Ligue 1 at Paris Saint-Germain in 2018-19 and 2019-20. He led Chelsea to the UEFA Champions League title in 2020-21. And in 2022-23, Tuchel took Bayern Munich to its 11th straight Bundesliga title.

In 2023-24, Bayern Munich jumped out to a record of 12 wins, two draws, and one loss with a goal differential of +34.

One of the reasons that Bayern Munich is expected to continue winning infinite champions was the acquisition of English superstar Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur. Kane is best known as the top player on the England national team where he scored 62 goals in 89 apps and was a major factor in the resurgence of the program on the World Cup stage.

While at Tottenham Hotspur, Kane scored 213 goals in 317 apps before playing on loan for four clubs en route to Bayern Munich.

Naturally, Kane is the most expensive signing in the history of the Bundesliga, well in excess of $25 million US annually. Bayern Munich and its fans will tell you he is worth every penny. In all competitions for Bayern Munich, Kane had 25 goals in 22 games.

Leroy Sane was the second-leading scorer for Bayern Munich with eight goals.

Can Bayer Leverkusen End the Bayern Munich Dynasty?

At the onset of the season, Bayer Leverkusen won 13 games with three draws and no losses and a goal differential of +34.

Bayer Leverkusen has never won the Bundesliga, with five runners-up finishes, including its last one in 2010-11.

Manager Xabi Alonso leads Bayer Leverkusen. Alonso has been on the job since 2022 from Real Sociedad B. He has a win percentage of .629 at Bayer Leverkusen.

Victor Boniface led Bayer Leverkusen with ten goals, with Alex Grimaldo adding seven goals.

German Bundesliga Winners (2000)

It feels like we should just auto sim to the end of every Bundesliga season at this point since Bayern Munich will always be the league champion. Bayern Munich have now won 10 straight Bundesliga titles, and they have only been seriously challenged a few times during this stretch. They now have 32 league titles, and no other German team has 10 titles.
