Wehen vs Bayern Munich: German Cup Prediction (27.08.2025)

On August 27, 2025 at 20:45 CEST, the German Cup 1/32 final will feature Wehen Wiesbaden against Bayern Munich. Naturally, the visitors are the undisputed favorites in this matchup. Let’s consider whether the hosts have any chance of surprising their illustrious opponent and try to find the most interesting bet for this game.

Wehen

It’s difficult to make a case in Wehen’s favor. Even the home-field factor is unlikely to have much impact here. The balance of power is clearly against the hosts. The team plays in Germany’s third division, where they finished only ninth last season. Wehen’s players do not always manage to compete consistently even with opponents of their own level. The club’s greatest achievement so far has been reaching the second division. Wehen focuses more on developing local youth talent and is not known for big ambitions.

Bayern Munich

The Bavarians have reclaimed their dominance in the Bundesliga. Vincent Kompany’s side did it convincingly, and signs of a new era of hegemony are already visible. Bayern look significantly stronger than their nearest domestic rivals. Still, the team reinforced its squad further in the summer by signing players such as Jonathan Tah and Luis Díaz. However, it’s doubtful we will see the full-strength lineup in this upcoming match. Most likely, Bayern’s reserves and some of the summer signings will get playing time. Even so, it’s hard to imagine the Munich giants slipping up in the cup at such an early stage.

Head-to-head statistics

There are no head-to-head statistics, as the teams have never faced each other before. For Wehen, this is a true football celebration. The club likely had no ambitions of making a deep German Cup run, so elimination would not be a big disappointment. But playing against the giants of German football offers a chance to make headlines and enjoy a moment in the spotlight.

Prediction

For the Wehen vs Bayern Munich match, our prediction favors the visitors. It is always tricky to predict early-stage cup games, especially with such a vast difference in class. Favorites rarely field their strongest lineups in these situations, which sometimes produces unpredictable results. However, this is unlikely to be one of those cases. The bet: Bayern Munich to win with a -3 handicap at odds of 1.66.
