About Bundesliga Football Betting
The German Bundesliga is the youngest of Europe's Big 5 leagues. It's also unique among them, with 18 teams instead of 20. The Bundesliga operates a promotion and relegation system with Bundesliga 2, with two automatic relegation places.
Betting odds focus on the Bundesliga qualification places for the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League. Bayern Munich is the most successful team in Bundesliga history, with legendary Gerd Müller as the top goalscorer.

2023/24 Bundesliga League Recap
While Premier League and La Liga betting ended up with pre-season favourites winning titles, there was an upset in the German Bundesliga. Bayer Leverkusen spectacularly ended Bayern Munich's dominance. In an astonishing unbeaten season, Leverkusen won the title with five matches to spare for their first-ever crown.
Joining those two in a top-five finish were Stuttgart, RB Leipzig, and Borussia Dortmund, with Germany holding five qualification spots for the Champions League. Eintracht Frankfurt and Hoffenheim qualified for the Europa League, with Heidenham producing another of the season's surprises by qualifying for the Conference League.
Hertha Berlin and Schalke were relegated, with Bochum hanging onto their status with a relegation play-off success. Bayern's Harry Kane was the top goalscorer in the Bundesliga with a brilliant return of 36 goals.
Great Bundesliga Moments
The history of the Bundesliga has been littered with great moments. There were great battles between Bayern Munich and Borussia Mönchengladbach for the title throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Munich pulled well ahead from the 1980s onward and recorded a remarkable eleven straight titles between 2013 and 2023.
Borussia Dortmund have sporadically upset the Bundesliga odds for title races by famously denying Bayern Munich in 2011 and 2012 in particular. Wolfsburg's 2008/09 league title was spectacular as well, as they had been nothing more than an outside shot at the start of the season but won their first league title by just about holding off Bayern Munich by two points.

Bundesliga Betting 2024/25
The Bundesliga season runs from August to May, with a winter break starting after Match Day 15 in December. After their surprise title last season, will Bayer Leverkusen be able to back up that success with a title defence? That's not going to be easy, as reflected in the pre-season Bundesliga winner odds, where they are second-favourites to Bayern Munich.
It's likely that with some new additions to their squad over the summer, Bayern will come back stronger. Main striker Harry Kane is the front-runner in Bundesliga odds to be the league's top goalscorer once again.
Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are likely to be the main contenders in the race for Champions League qualification. Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt could also have a say in that particular race, or at least in qualification for the Europa League or Europa Conference League. Look for Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund for Der Klassiker meetings among the season's headline matches.
In Bundesliga relegation betting, the newly promoted teams St Pauli and Holstein Kiel are among the favourites to go down. The latter are making their debut season in the top flight, and it would be a huge achievement if they could avoid the drop.
