• VfB Stuttgart play openly away from home: at least three goals have been scored in 10 of their last 10 Bundesliga away matches.
Form and Line-up Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich have already begun the season with a trophy, beating Borussia Dortmund 2:1 in the Super Cup. Nathaniel Brown was one of the standout players, scoring a goal, while Michael Olise also made a decisive contribution to the team's victory.
Ahead of the start of the Bundesliga, the main question in the squad remains the position behind Harry Kane. Jamal Musiala is not ready to play, so the coaching staff are considering Nathaniel Brown or Ismael Saibari in that role. According to the latest Bundesliga prediction, Brown is expected to start.
In home league matches, Bayern Munich traditionally rely on a high tempo and sustained pressure on the opposition goal.
Key numbers:
Bayern Munich have had 15 or more shots in 10 of their last 10 Bundesliga home matches.
Bayern Munich have had at least 5 shots on target in 10 of their last 10 Bundesliga matches.
Bayern Munich have taken at least 5 corners in 10 of their last 10 Bundesliga home matches.
Probable Bayern Munich line-up (4-2-3-1): Manuel Neuer — Konrad Laimer, Jonathan Tah, Minjae Kim, Josip Stanisic — Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic — Michael Olise, Nathaniel Brown, Luis Diaz — Harry Kane.
Form and Line-up VfB Stuttgart
VfB Stuttgart begin the season after a major squad overhaul. Grischa Promel and Bilal El Khannouss have joined the team, have already been included in the club's squad for the 2026/27 season and could challenge for a starting place.
Sebastian Hoeness's side do not usually abandon their proactive football away from home. This could make the match in Munich fairly open, although the visitors will inevitably have to spend more time without the ball against Bayern Munich.
The goalkeeper position deserves particular attention. Fabian Bredlow and Dennis Seimen are in VfB Stuttgart's squad, but Bredlow appears to be the likely first choice for this match. The final decision will depend on Seimen's condition immediately before the game.
Key numbers:
In 10 of VfB Stuttgart's last 10 Bundesliga away matches, the two teams have combined for at least 10 shots on target.
VfB Stuttgart have scored 2 or more goals in 9 of their last 10 Bundesliga away matches.
VfB Stuttgart have taken at least 5 corners in 9 of their last 10 Bundesliga matches.
Probable VfB Stuttgart line-up (4-2-3-1): Fabian Bredlow — Josha Vagnoman, Finn Jeltsch, Jeff Chabot, Maximilian Mittelstadt — Grischa Promel, Angelo Stiller — Bilal El Khannouss, Deniz Undav, Tiago Tomas — Dzenan Pejcinovic.
