How Do Bundesliga Teams Play?
This rather depends on the coaching philosophy and tactics of the respective clubs. A high, pressing game, known colloquially in their mother tongue as gegenpressing sees teams prize immediate winning of the football back if they lose possession. The theory being that, if you don’t have the ball, you can’t score a goal.
High profile teams like Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen, who feature in many a German Bundesliga prediction, often subscribe to such an approach. This is because of coaches past and present who enjoyed success with gegenpressing tactics that include Thomas Tuchel, Jurgen Klopp and Xabi Alonso. Each has won the Bundesliga title using this style of play.

Here at BetIdeas, we go into thing a lot deeper than Germany Bundesliga predictions on which teams will win the title. That’s just the tip of the iceberg. There are now so many different ways of betting on matches that all the best football tipsters have upped their game, us included.
Why not combine our selections from different events with Bundesliga accumulator tips for better value? It’s the only way to get it really as the big boys are going to be long odds-on favourites to win their matches unless they play each other.
Football is becoming a more statistical based game with every passing season. Our experts tap into that for sure by offering Bundesliga corner predictions on matches. Teams who play with real width and using old-fashioned wingers that want some chalk on their boots will rack up plenty of corner kicks.
Another way into wagering on the action in German based on stats is how disciplined clubs are. It only needs a side to have one or two hotheads on the field, and you can expect Bundesliga card predictions with a high count from us.
Goals aren’t the only stat that matter any more, from a gambling perspective at least. They remain the ultimate arbiter of wins and losses on a football pitch, though, and so considering Bundesliga BTTS predictions also makes sense. This market is a simple Yes or No, whether the AI software based on relevant data things both teams will score a goal during the game or not.
That feeds nicely into Bundesliga Under/Over predictions while we think about it. How many goals will there be in a match? More or less than set intervals of 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, and so on. You can even take different tips on the same game from various markets and combine them in Bundesliga Bet Builder predictions if you want.
About the Bundesliga
Formed in 1963, the Fußball-Bundesliga, also known as 1. Bundesliga or simply the Bundesliga, is the top division in German football. It was created at a time before the Reunification of the country, prompted by the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
The catalyst for the formation of a national league in then West Germany seems to have been their defeat at the hands of Yugoslavia at the 1962 World Cup in Chile at the quarter-final stage. East German teams, who had their own separate league, were incorporated into the Bundesliga and lower divisions of the reunified country for the 1991-92 season.
There are 18 clubs in the league every season with the bottom two in the final table relegated automatically. They are replaced by the winners and runners-up from the 2. Bundesliga. There is then a two-legged promotion / relegation play-off tie between the third bottom team from the Bundesliga and third best team in the second tier with the aggregate winners taking the last spot.
Under current UEFA coefficients, the top five teams qualify for the Champions League. If Borussia Dortmund win that continental competition, however, then six German clubs will go into the 2024-25 edition. Europa League and UEFA Conference League spots may go down as far as eighth place in the Bundesliga as a result.

FAQs
When is the Bundesliga season?
The Bundesliga season runs from August to May like the Premier League and other top European leagues. There is one notable difference, however, and it’s in the number of competing teams and thus the matches played by each side. As there are only 18 clubs to give a Bundesliga prediction about for each game, there are 34 rather than 38 matches in the regular season.
What are the most popular Bundesliga betting markets?
This is much the same as in any other league or competition. The win-draw-win (1×2) market is obviously one that many punters use in their Bet Builders and accumulators. Both team to score, correct score, goalscorers and plenty more besides features when betting on the Bundesliga. At BetIdeas, we specialise in statistics-based markets like cards and corners too.
Why are your Budesliga tips free?
We decided to make every Germany Bundesliga prediction on BetIdeas free to view, because of how easy it is for our team to generate them. By inputting relevant match data into AI software, a lot of the hard work is done for us and you as readers.
Who will win the Bundesliga?
The default setting for all Bundesliga predictions this weekend and for the season is Bayern Munich. If the 2023-24 season showed us anything, though, it’s that they don’t always win every game and the title. There are campaigns when other teams raise their game and become champions by upsetting the established order.
