The Munich giants, after a trophyless season two years ago, brought in Kompany—who last year returned the “silver salad bowl”. Now, he’s aiming for the maximum number of trophies. They already clinched the German Super Cup in the summer. In the Champions League quarterfinal against Real, after winning away, they lost at home, but still managed an overall 4-3 result. Up next is a Cup semifinal versus Bayer. So the Bundesliga can be played out almost on autopilot.
The team from “MHP Arena” dropped to ninth place in 2024/2025, but made up for it by winning the cup. As a result, the Germans went to the Europa League but lost to Porto in the Round of 16. They’ve done better in the new cup season—also reaching the semifinals, where they’ll face Freiburg. In the Bundesliga, they’ve improved, fiercely fighting for third place. They lost to Borussia Dortmund in April but then calmly defeated Hamburg.
The champion has outstanding stats: as high as 3.62 goals scored per match and only 0.93 conceded. But Sebastian Hoeneß’s squad is also solid, averaging 2.07 goals scored and 1.31 conceded.
Previous Matches: Bayern vs Stuttgart
Kane and company have won six of their last seven head-to-head meetings, losing only once.
The only real intrigue: where will the champion stop? We bet on their victory with a “-1 goal” handicap (odds – 1.60).
