2022 Bundesliga Futures 8/8/22 | |
---|---|
Bayern Munich | -600 |
Borussia Dortmund | +800 |
RB Leipzig | +1600 |
Bayer Leverkusen | +3300 |
The competition for German soccer lead supremacy continues. Bayern Munich has further established themselves as they fortify their hold as Bundesliga Favorites heading through August and beyond. The top German soccer team got off to a flying start in this 2022 season with a triumphant 6-1 rout of Eintracht Frankfurt.
Now, the beginning of June saw Bayern as the top choice at -300. Since then, the top team in the league has seen those numbers shorten some more. The teams have just played one match this year so far. Despite that, the odds moved anyway to what they are now. For good reason, trying to find anything too far south of -600 is a tough find. Bayern Munich is widely regarded as the class of the Bundesliga.
So, naturally, early in the season, there is plenty of speculation about transfers and buyouts, etc. One thing is clear. Bayern Munich wants to keep as much of the band together as humanly possible. It makes sense as the German squad has higher aspirations other than their own league. After all, they always do. Besides fending off perennial league foe Borussia Dortmund, it is again the loftier expectations that drive Bayern.
Now, 2022 Bundesliga Futures Bets spotlights on this first question. Could Bayern do the wire-to-wire thing again?
Some will forget that teams can struggle out of the gate. However, Bayern Munich is more than holding up early. That is the essential thing here. Despite some “noise”, they opened the season with that demolition of the Frankfurt team. It looked like men versus boys as Munich flexed their muscles early and often. The nice thing was that games can be broadly streamed on ESPN+ now, which adds exposure.
For those wondering, the league’s best team points-wise finished eight points clear of Borussia last year despite coasting to a 2-1-2 finish over their final five matches. That is the kind of dominance the team from Munich has over the rest of the German soccer league. Even despite improved overall play from Borussia Dortmund and even Leverkusen (who won four of their final five), Bayern was just the tops. There was little “true” competition.
Expect close to the same kind of goal-scoring production for Bayern. In the German league itself, they tallied 97 goals in 34 matches. That translates to an average of nearly three goals a contest! Could they top 100 goals this season? It is possible. Considering that six-goal outburst in Game 1, anything is possible, even that lofty three goals a game mark.
Bayern is motivated by keeping the streak alive. Their ten-season run is the stuff of legend, and though they had a close call in 2018-19, few expect it to be as tight this season. When the offence clicks, they are heads and shoulders above everyone else. However, if their strikers go a bit cold, the door could get opened a bit. Those are big reasons why the Bayern number was one of the 2022 Bundesliga Futures Bets dropped compared to June.
2022 Bundesliga Futures Bets for the Borrusia Dortmund and their aspirations have lengthened a little, and that may not be a bad thing. In early June, Dortmund was hovering around +500 to +550. They were as low as +500 but again, that number was believed to be a little low to be honest. Since then, common sense seemed to prevail as Dortmund fell to around their current level of +800.
Sadly, there is still a good deal of truth here. Dortmund will not just outscore teams this season. As evidenced by their 1-0 win over Leverkusen (fourth in the early odds), the team may not have as many scoring chances this season. Borussia did score 85 goals last season and could come close, but projections suggest a team more content winning 2-1 or perhaps 3-2 than some of those outrageous five and six-goal outbursts.
For the 2022 Bundesliga Futures Bets, a value bet has to be considered on Dortmund. They have enough defensive capabilities and can sometimes go toe to toe with Bayern. Their number is more attractive now than it was a few months ago as well. That helps. Also, they are the only team with the depth to indeed stack up to the squad from Munich.
What about the top scorer in 2022 Bundesliga Futures? That is quite a loaded question. For starters, do we consider Sadio Mane, the current favorite at around +330?
Once more, the German league is loaded with goal scorers. There are nine snipers within +2000 or shorter when it comes to said scoring race. Keep in mind the top teams average more than two goals a game, so there are plenty of tallies to go around. With so many choices, how about Mane’s teammate, Leroy Sane, as a longer shot (+3300)?
The contention for 2022 Bundesliga Futures Bets top scorer is to look at Bayern Munich. Their plethora of goal scorers make this a fun wager.
There is one more thing. Yes, online NFL betting sites are waiting for your dollars as the preseason kicks off in earnest this week.
