The 2025/26 Bundesliga season kicks off with a blockbuster clash as reigning champions Bayern Munich host RB Leipzig at the Allianz Arena on Friday, August 22. This fixture has become one of German football’s most exciting matchups, and both sides will be eager to start their campaign on the right foot.

Bayern enter the match in strong form, having recently won the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup and carrying an unbeaten record in opening Bundesliga games since 2011. Despite several injury concerns, Bayern’s depth and attacking firepower make them heavy favourites, especially at home where they thrashed Leipzig 5‑1 in their last meeting.

Team news for Bayern includes several key absentees: Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala, Hiroki Ito, and Tom Bischof are all ruled out. Captain Manuel Neuer is also unavailable, with Daniel Peretz expected to start in goal. Despite this, Bayern’s likely XI remains formidable, with Kimmich and Goretzka anchoring the midfield and a potent attack featuring Leroy SanĂ©, Serge Gnabry, and possibly Harry Kane if fit. Thomas Tuchel will be looking for a convincing performance to signal Bayern’s intent to dominate once again.

RB Leipzig, on the other hand, are in transition under new manager Ole Werner, who faces a tough test in his first competitive game. Leipzig have lost key players during the transfer window and will be without Klostermann, Henrichs, and Gomis due to injury. Loïs Openda is expected to lead the line, but much will depend on how well the new-look squad can cope with Bayern’s intensity.

Tactically, Bayern are expected to stick with a 4-2-3-1 setup, using wide play and quick transitions to overwhelm Leipzig’s backline. Leipzig may opt for a compact 3-5-2 to contain space, but their defensive vulnerability and unfamiliarity with Werner’s system could be exploited.

Prediction: Bayern’s recent dominance in this fixture, home advantage, and stronger squad depth give them a clear edge. Leipzig’s chances hinge on defensive discipline and clinical counter-attacks, but they are likely to struggle against Bayern’s relentless pressure.

Score prediction: Bayern Munich 3-1 RB Leipzig

Betting tips:

The Bundesliga season is set to start with fireworks, and all eyes will be on Munich to see if Bayern can once again set the tone.
