Current form
Last season, Borussia could not compete with Bayern in the Bundesliga, but they did not give the second place to anyone. The gap from Munich was 16 points, and the gap from the nearest pursuer was eight points. Niko Kovacs' men lost both face-to-face matches in the Bundesliga.: with the score 1:2 on the road and 2:3 on home field.
Regarding transfers, we will note the sale of Adeyemi to Barcelona and Brandt. They were replaced by Karetsas from Belgian Genk and Constantelias. Both players actively played in friendly matches with an eye to a place in the main squad.
Borussia did not show stable results in sparring (three wins, two losses and a draw). Nevertheless, it is worth noting the successful final matches in preparation for the new season with Arsenal (3:2) and Roma (2:2). In attack, the Bumblebees showed their best side in the control matches, scoring 10 goals.

Current form
Bayern Munich was second to none in Germany last season, finishing first in the Bundesliga and winning the Cup. Undoubtedly, the Munich team was betting on winning the Champions League, but they couldn't cope with PSG in the semifinals.
In the summer, because of the participation of many players in the World Cup, Bayern could not use their leaders in sparring for a long time. However, even playing with a far from optimal squad, the Munich team showed their best in the control matches, winning five of the six matches. In the final two friendly matches, the attack fully manifested itself: Leipzig won 3-1 and Heidenheim won 4-2. Plus, there was a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa. The Company did not resort to extensive rotation in these meetings, many leaders were involved, as we can see, this led to positive results.
During the summer transfer window, Bayern acquired left-back Brown and attacking midfielder Saibari. There are active talks about Olise's transfer to Real Madrid, but for now the player remains with Bayern.
Disqualifications and injuries
Carl and Gnabry are injured, Musiala and Limer are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Approximate line–up: Neuer – Bui, Ta, Upamecano, Brown – Kimmich, Pavlovich - Olise, Saibari, Diaz – Kane.
Bayern gradually increased during the pre-season matches, and the leaders tightened up. In recent control meetings with Leipzig and Heidenheim, the Munich attack showed itself in all its glory, scoring five goals. Last season, Vincent Kompany regularly demonstrated his ability to give maximum results in matches against competitors in domestic tournaments, and Borussia managed to beat them twice in the Bundesliga.
The bumblebees have an important home field factor on their side today, but the Munich team knows how to play and win in Dortmund. During the pre-season matches, Borussia looked good, there was a victory over Arsenal in London. At the same time, the problems in defense are alarming, and it's hard to count on a positive result with Bayern when you have to get the ball out of your net several times. Compared to last season, the teams of the rivals have not changed fundamentally, Kompany has twice defeated Kovac, which we are waiting for today.
Our betting tip is for Bayern to win with an Asian handicap (-1) for a coefficient of 1.92
Bet on the total
In the last three face-to-face meetings, the opponents scored at least three goals each. In the summer, neither Borussia nor Bayern had any problems attacking in the test matches. We expect in the betting tip that once again the principal rivals will be pleased with the abundance of goals scored.
