Wolves close the gap in the title race
Six-point game in Wolfsburg: After the bitter defeat against Hoffenheim last week, the Wolves are out to make amends in the Women’s Bundesliga. The match against FC Bayern comes in handy. Saturday’s clash is crucial in the championship race.
If VfL win Saturday’s match in front of their home crowd, the gap to the top of the table will shrink to one point. A defeat, on the other hand, would be difficult to cope with, especially as FCB could extend their lead to seven points. However, our Wolfsburg vs Bayern Women betting tip does not rule out this scenario
The FCB already won against the Wolves in the first half of the season. The Munich side celebrated a 2:1 victory in front of their home crowd. This was the second time in a row that FC Bayern remained unbeaten against VfL Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga

Wolfsburg – Statistics & current form
VfL Wolfsburg’s women’s football team has had a mixed season so far. The Wolves were knocked out of the international competition at the qualifying stage. In the Bundesliga, on the other hand, things are also far from ideal, which is partly due to the most recent defeat.
Because Wolfsburg lost their most recent league game against Hoffenheim, the gap at the top of the table has widened to four points. Now the home game against FC Bayern is coming up. It will be VfL’s ninth home game of the current season. VfL Wolfsburg have won seven of their eight home games in the current Bundesliga season.
The Wolves have scored a total of 20 goals in these eight home games. An average of more than two goals per home game. A high-scoring league clash against Munich is therefore also an obvious choice. The three-goal mark has been broken in five of the last six H2hs. It’s quite possible that betting on over 2.5 goals will pay off again this time
Has VfL digested the defeat against Hoffenheim?
VfL Wolfsburg have only lost once in their last twelve competitive matches. That defeat was against Hoffenheim. It was the only match since November 2023 in which the Wolves conceded more than one goal in a Bundesliga match. With twelve goals conceded in 16 matchdays, Wolfsburg already have the second-strongest defensive bulwark in the Bundesliga.
Only FC Bayern have conceded fewer goals than second-placed Wolfsburg this season. The Wolves’ defense has been particularly strong at home. In eight home games, they have conceded just two goals. The home record in the H2h against Bayern also speaks in VfL’s favor.
Wolfsburg have not lost a single home game against Munich since November 2005. In the last four home matches, VfL have a 3-1-0 record against FCB, including a 6-0 victory in the second half of the 2021/22 season.
Predicted Wolfsburg line-up:
Frohms – Wedemeyer, Hendrich, Hegering, Janssen – Huth, Oberdorf, Hagel – Jonsdottir, Popp, Brand
Bayern Women – Statistics & current form
FC Bayern face a crucial showdown against the Wolves. With a win on Saturday evening, the FCB women can set the course for the championship title and extend their lead over the chasing pack to a total of seven points. It would be Bayern’s eighth win in a row in all competitions.
Last week, FCB seized the moment and punished VfL’s loss of points with a resounding victory against RB Leipzig. The Munich side celebrated a 5-0 victory in front of their home crowd. It was the sixth match in the last seven competitive games in which they have kept a clean sheet. During this period, FCB have only conceded one goal against Eintracht.
They will be looking to extend their run of form against the Wolves. Bayern have not beaten VfL in the first and second legs of a Bundesliga season since 2001/2002. If the negative streak is ended, odds of 2.80 are available for a bet on the visitors in Wolfsburg vs Bayern Women
Are the Munich women building on their strong away record?
FCB have yet to lose a single match in the current Bundesliga season. They have an almost perfect record of 5-2-0 away from home and have scored a total of 17 goals in these seven matches. In return, the FCB women have only conceded four goals. They will be looking to improve on this against VfL.
From Munich’s point of view, even a draw would be a success against the Wolves. Six matchdays before the end of the season, FCB have the championship title in their own hands anyway. Compared to the team that played against RB Leipzig last week, no major changes are expected for Munich.
Predicted Bayern Women’s line-up:
Grohs – Naschenweng, Sembrant, Viggosdottir, Gwinn – Stanway, Zadrazil – Buhl, Damnjanovic, Harder – Schuller
Wolfsburg – Bayern Women Head-to-head comparison / H2H result
The two clubs meet for the 50th time. VfL Wolfsburg lead the H2H against FC Bayern with a record of 22-11-15. In the last nine encounters, FCB have only won twice against the Wolves. Both victories have come in the last three H2hs, including the 2-1 win in the first half of the current Bundesliga season.
The result in Munich was the fifth time in the last six H2hs that a bet on over 2.5 goals paid off in a competitive match between Wolfsburg and Bayern. In three of these six matches, a bet on “Both score” also paid off
Wolfsburg – Bayern Ladies betting tip
The Wolves can only realize the championship title with shooting assistance. However, VfL Wolfsburg must also win the six-point game against Munich to minimize the gap to one point five matchdays before the end of the season. Wolfsburg only have a realistic chance of winning the title if they beat FCB.
In the first half of the season, VfL lost 2:1 against the FCB women, but the Wolves are still favorites for the second-round clash, which is partly due to their strong home record. VfL Wolfsburg have not lost a home game against Bayern since 2005
We are leaning towards a tight league duel with lots of goals. As in the first half of the season, the three-goal mark should be broken in the BL clash between VfL Wolfsburg and Bayern. Our tip is for over 2.5 goals. We are betting five out of ten possible units for this
