Ratiopharm Ulm vs Bayern München Betting Tips

For a side that have fourteen wins to their name after fifteen games, Dafabet’s latest BBL odds for Bayern to win actually looks quite generous. The odds may have shortened somewhat due to Ulm’s strong winning streak and the fact that Bayern have to travel, but that looks like ‘clutching at straws’ excuses as Bayern will simply prove too strong. This is backed up by Munchen’s form in European competitions with winning streaks across the whole roster for the away side. Ulm are the best side to put up a fight right now but their poor start to the campaign has left them in recovery mode constantly in a must win situation which will way heavy on the sides confidence. For entertainment, this game will have you gripped. Just do not expect any surprises.

We have already established that Ulm’s winning streak is set to end but now the question returns to by how much? The last time the two sides met, Bayern ran out fifteen-point winners and that was at Ulm’s home court, the Ratiopharm Arena. Although in the last ten games in all competitions thee away side have averaged just five points per game than their opponents (88-83) Ulm have played less ‘high calibre’ sides and that reflection of points difference is not a fair assumption. A better statistic to consider is Munchen’s +259 basket difference this season compared to Ulm’s +72. Whichever way you look at it, Bayern are a juggernaut that will not stop rolling and Unibet are one of the best bookmakers to visit when looking for the handicaps markets with their superb value ridden price.
