Bayern Munich have continued their charge to regain the Bundesliga title in recent weeks, setting scoring records in the process.
The Bavarian giants have won seven of their opening nine matches this term and have already opened up a three-point advantage over RB Leipzig.
Worryingly for the hosts this weekend, Bayern have scored 13 goals without conceding across their last four matches in all competitions.
St. Pauli have made a bright start to their top-flight campaign. The hosts have won two of their last five, and could move up to eleventh with a shock win this weekend.
Odds
As you would expect, Bayern Munich are solid favorites on the moneyline at -400 this weekend. A win for the home side would be a shock outcome at +1020.

The most recent match was staged in May 2011, with Bayern running out as 8-1 winners. That remains Bayern’s biggest ever win in the Bundesliga, and it is also St. Pauli’s heaviest ever defeat in the top-flight.

St. Pauli vs. Bayern Munich Prediction
St. Pauli have been excellent on the road to this point, but they have struggled in home matches.
That doesn’t bode well for their chances against the free-scoring Bayern this weekend.
An away win certainly looks to be the most likely outcome based on the trends and recent performances, and the best value bet could be for the Bavarians to cover the spread.
