Bayern Munich will host Union Berlin on Friday, September 18, with the match scheduled for 19:30 GMT. This encounter comes at a time when Bayern is aiming to build on their recent performances. After an impressive win against Stuttgart, Bayern faced challenges in subsequent matches, including a goalless draw against Schalke and a narrow victory over Elversberg, both of which raised questions about their consistency.

Bookmakers heavily favor Bayern, offering odds of 1/11 for a victory. However, their offensive prowess, demonstrated in earlier matches, has been inconsistent, especially away from home. Bayern's recent games have highlighted some vulnerabilities that Union could exploit, although Union has struggled themselves, failing to score significantly in past fixtures.
For this match, a closer look at individual player performance suggests potential value in betting on Aleksandar Pavlovic. With odds of 7/4 for 2 or more total shots and 10/1 for 2 or more shots on target, Pavlovic's early-season form makes these bets appealing. He has supplied three shots in two out of three Bundesliga appearances this season and appears to have more attacking freedom compared to his previous campaign.
Union Berlin comes into this match having conceded a total of 21 shots (ten on target) during a 4-0 loss to Bayer Leverkusen and another 19 shots in a recent match against Schalke. This defensive strain could provide opportunities for Pavlovic and Bayern's other attackers.
