Bayern’s Bundesliga charge begins
FC Bayern Munich have made a solid, if unspectacular, start to the Bundesliga 2026/2027 campaign, sitting 6th with 4 points from 2 games. That's a solid foundation from which Die Bayern can build a challenge, and they come into this fixture unbeaten in 5 games across all competitions (W4, D1, L0).
Their last 3 matches have seen them beat VfL Osnabrück 4-1 in the DFB-Pokal, play out a 0-0 draw with Schalke in the Bundesliga and thrash Bodø/Glimt 5-0 in the Champions League, all of which points to a team full of goals.
Vincent Kompany's men are playing a high-tempo, possession-based style with an aggressive counter-press and rapid shape changes, while the stats show that Aleksandar Pavlovic is currently the Bundesliga's highest scorer for a Bayern player with 1 goal in 2 matches, and Ismael Saibari has been the architect with 2 assists in as many games.
Union already under pressure
Union Berlin have made a terrible start to the Bundesliga 2026/2027 and already sit 15th in the table with 1 point from their 3 games, putting them under immediate pressure near the bottom of the table.
They come into this game on a 2-game losing streak after their 4-0 away defeat to Leverkusen in the Bundesliga was followed by a 3-1 home loss to Schalke, with Mauro Lustrinelli trying to blend his compact, physical structure with a more attack-minded, quicker side.
Tim Skarke is Union's top scorer in the Bundesliga so far with 2 goals in 3 games, while Josip Juranovic has been the facilitator with 2 assists in the same number of matches.
Bayern to be unstoppable
Die Bayern are simply huge 1.1 favourites here, and it's very hard to see anything other than a home win at such short odds. The draw at 9.2 looks a little rich too, so the clear favourite is Bayern and outsider is Union. We're sticking with Bayern to come out on top, and a win to nil looks live, as Die Eisernen have found life hard away from home this season, failing to score a single goal, and with Bayern dominating at home, we think they can keep it that way.
