Who are Lippstadt and is it worth a small lay of Bayern Munich at those paltry odds? The game is just a friendly and so within reason any result should be possible, well unless Lippstadt are a non-league German team and the equivalent would be Manchester United playing Newport IOW? Other than that I think most friendlies are a guessing game, guessing the starting line up, guessing the motivation and tactics of the teams and then hoping that your thinking follows to reality. I would be interested if anyone had any alternative thoughts on friendlies and viewed them as a good way to make good money.

Lippstadt are around the fourth or fifth tier of German football. They play in a state league i think. I might describe them as a top half Blue Square Premier team although you'd probably need a German to tell you if that's accurate.

I wouldn't back any team 1/20 to be honest. With regards to friendlies in general i wouldn't back them unless i had clear information that says one team is really up for it while simultaneously the other is not.
