Match Preview
Vincent Kompany has quickly adapted to life in Munich this season, as Bayern have made a quick start to the season in their pursuit of the Bundesliga crown. Bayern have won each of their opening four matches, and have netted 20 goals across their last three in all competitions.
Bayer Leverkusen enjoyed a season to remember last term after winning the domestic double. However, their unbeaten run in Germany was ended on matchday two. They have responded to that setback well after winning their last two, but this weekend’s showdown represents their biggest test to date.

Leverkusen have enjoyed a fine run of results against Bayern across recent seasons, having gone three without defeat against Munich. They have never previously enjoyed a longer unbeaten sequence against their rivals. This weekend marks the first time since 2012-13 that Bayern will come up against a reigning Bundesliga champion. They have failed to win in their last four.
However, Bayern have enjoyed an excellent start to this season. They have picked up wins in each of their opening four matches, and boast a goal difference of +13. That marks their joint-best start to a top-flight season in Germany. Leverkusen have been weak defensively in recent weeks, allowing nine goals, which is their most after four rounds since 2014-15.
Bayern Munich vs. Bayer Leverkusen Picks
Leverkusen’s defensive record is a huge cause for concern ahead of this trip to the Allianz Arena. Bayern look to be in excellent form at present, and for that reason, we could see them gaining some early season revenge against last season’s title winners.
