Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Bayern vs RB Leipzig

Bayern

Vincent Kompany's team brought the Bundesliga title back to Munich last season and will now defend it in the new season. Bayern is traditionally considered the main favorite in the German championship and in the current campaign the dominance of the Munich team may become even more obvious. The legendary Thomas Müller left the team this summer, but the club managed to get Luis Diaz from Liverpool and also sign defender Jonathan Tah. Bayern is approaching the start of the Bundesliga after a less than stellar performance at the 2025 Club World Cup, so they will clearly be motivated to take all three points in the first round match.

RB Leipzig

The Bulls failed to finish the German championship last season and finished only seventh in the standings, without European cups in the new campaign. This summer, the club is active in the transfer market, signing several new players, but the team's biggest loss was the departure of Benjamin Sesko, who moved to Manchester United for a huge amount of money. It will be interesting to see how Leipzig replaces its top scorer from last season and whether it will be able to surprise the football community with a sensation in the first round of the Bundesliga against the current champion.

Game Totals Prediction

The new German championship traditionally opens with a match involving the current champion, in which Bayern is fairly and deservedly considered the clear favorite. In recent years, the Munich team's matches with Leipzig have been pleasing with good results, and the Bulls themselves are trying to provide worthy resistance to a more famous opponent. I would like to believe that this time the teams will please with a spectacular game, so a good choice for such a meeting seems to be a bet on Total Over (3.5) for 1.82.
