Bayern Munich VS Stuttgart Prediction & Betting tips
The 2026–27 Bundesliga season kicks off with a massive opening-night clash as defending champions FC Bayern Munich host VfB Stuttgart at the Allianz Arena on Friday, August 28, 2026, at 9:30 PM. Vincent Kompany’s Bayern side enters the campaign as heavy favorites after winning a domestic double last season. They have already secured their first silverware of the new season by defeating Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in the DFL-Supercup on August 22. Stuttgart, who finished an impressive fourth last season to lock down Champions League football, will look to disrupt the champions’ momentum early but face a steep historical hill to climb. Bayern has completely dominated this fixture recently, winning all six of their most recent competitive encounters. Their last high-stakes meeting was just three months ago in May 2026, when Harry Kane scored a hat-trick to push Bayern to a 3-0 victory in the DFB-Pokal final. Computer models and bookmakers heavily favor a home win for the Bavarian giants, assigning Bayern roughly a 77.8% winning probability compared to just 9.7% for Stuttgart. Given Stuttgart’s open, attacking style and their recent defensive vulnerabilities, football analysts broadly predict a high-scoring home victory, with popular scoreline forecasts landing at 3-1 or 4-1 in favor of Bayern.
Bayern Munich:
Star playmaker Jamal Musiala is sidelined due to a neurological disorder and will miss the season opener. Vincent Kompany is also missing Serge Gnabry and Bryan Zaragoza. High-profile Moroccan forward Ismael Saibari joins the ranks alongside left-back Nathaniel Brown, who already scored in the Supercup.
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Neuer – Laimer, Tah, Kim, Stanisic – Kimmich, Pavlovic – Olise, Brown, Díaz – Kane.
Stuttgart:
Sebastian Hoeneß faces severe defensive injury worries ahead of the trip to Munich. However, they started their competitive cycle strong with a 4-0 DFB-Pokal win against Hansa Rostock. Highly-rated 21-year-old striker Dženan Pejčinović (signed from Wolfsburg) scored a hat-trick in the cup and is set to push Deniz Undav up top. Slovakian winger Leo Sauer and Bilal El Khannouss also reinforce the squad.
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Bredlow – Vagnoman, Jeltsch, Chabot, Mittelstädt – Prömel, Stiller – Tomás, Undav, El Khannouss – Pejčinović.
