From the source

Der Klassiker is here, and Bayern Munich has a golden opportunity to make an early statement in the Bundesliga title race. Vincent Kompany’s side welcomes Borussia Dortmund to the Allianz Arena with both teams unbeaten in league play and level on 17 points.

Bayern Munich leads on goal difference, having scored 25 goals compared to Dortmund’s 12. Bayern Munich arrives in confident spirits after beating SC Freiburg 3-1, while Dortmund edged Eintracht Frankfurt 1-0 thanks to a late winner from Maximilian Beier.

The contrast is clear: Bayern Munich has been prolific in attack, while Dortmund has relied more heavily on defensive discipline and narrow victories. Harry Kane will be central to Bayern’s plans, with Michael Olise and Luis Díaz offering the creativity and directness needed to unsettle Dortmund’s defense.
