Bayern Munich to Host RB Leipzig in 2025/2026 Bundesliga Opener Tonight

Bayern Munich kick off their Bundesliga title defence tonight as they host RB Leipzig at the Allianz Arena.

The Bavarian giants dominated last season, finishing top of the Bundesliga table with 82 points from 25 wins, 7 draws, and just 2 defeats. 

They scored 99 goals while conceding only 32.

Under new head coach Vincent Kompany, Bayern have already lifted silverware this season, winning the Franz Beckenbauer Super Cup for the 11th time in their history after a 2-1 victory over Stuttgart. 

The match featured new signings such as Colombian winger Luis Díaz, while star striker Harry Kane netted his 86th goal in 97 appearances since joining from Tottenham in 2023.

Leipzig, meanwhile, are eager to bounce back after a disappointing campaign that saw them finish seventh, missing out on European competitions for the first time since their Bundesliga debut in 2016. 

The club strengthened its squad over the summer with several promising signings, including Belgian winger Johan Bakayoko and midfielder Arthur Vermeeren, in the first transfer window overseen by former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp, now serving as Football Operations Director for Red Bull’s football group.
