Bayern München host Stuttgart aiming to extend perfect start
Bayern München open their Bundesliga campaign against VfB Stuttgart at the Allianz Arena, with kick-off on 28 August. Bayern arrive on the back of five straight wins, while Stuttgart have won three of their last five outings, losing once and drawing once.
A one-sided recent history
The two sides have met five times since last February, and Bayern have won every single one of those encounters. The most recent came in the DFB Pokal on 23 May, when Bayern won 3-0, following a 4-2 Bundesliga victory in April.
Further back, Bayern beat Stuttgart 5-0 in December, 2-1 in the Super Cup last August, and 3-1 in a Bundesliga meeting in February 2025. That run gives Bayern five consecutive victories over their upcoming opponents across all competitions.
Form guide heading into matchday one
With the season only two matchdays old, both clubs head into this fixture with more wins than losses. Bayern's five-match sequence reads WWWWW, while Stuttgart's is WLWDW, meaning Bayern hold the edge in recent results with five wins to Stuttgart's three.
Stuttgart will look to their draw and lone defeat as points to build from, but the head-to-head record adds an extra layer of context to what is otherwise an early-season fixture between two sides who have started well domestically.
