🇩🇪 Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart 🇩🇪 — Prediction
Bundesliga · Matchday 1 · Fri, 28 Aug 2026, 20:30 CEST · Allianz Arena, Munich
Why we called it
Bayern opened the campaign by winning the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup 2-1 at Dortmund on 22 August through Nathaniel Brown and Michael Olise, but Vincent Kompany is still without Jamal Musiala (neurological issue), Serge Gnabry, Lennart Karl and Konrad Laimer, while Kane, Olise and Upamecano only returned to full training in Supercup week after extended post-World Cup breaks. Stuttgart arrive sharp, having hammered Hansa Rostock 4-0 in the DFB-Pokal with a Dzenan Pejcinovic hat-trick, and Sebastian Hoeness can pair the new signing with Deniz Undav behind Bilal El Khannouss. Bayern's quality at the Allianz should still decide it, but a short-of-rhythm attack against a well-drilled Stuttgart points to a one-goal margin rather than a rout.
