Bayern München
VfB Stuttgart
Bayern München begin their Bundesliga title defence with a home fixture against VfB Stuttgart on 28 August at the Allianz Arena, kicking off at 21:30 Moscow time. The hosts enter as clear favourites and will look to establish early momentum in their campaign. Bayern's attacking setup remains formidable, led by Harry Kane, Michael Olise, and Luis Díaz, though Jamal Musiala is unavailable for selection. Stuttgart, meanwhile, tend to play with attacking intent in away matches, creating a contest that could develop into an open encounter with space available at both ends.
Form and H2H
Bayern's home form over their last ten matches shows eight wins, one draw, and one loss, averaging 2.39 goals for and 1.05 against. Stuttgart's away record stands at six wins, two draws, and two losses, with an average of 3.53 goals scored and 1.03 conceded. The historical head-to-head record heavily favours Bayern, who have dominated recent meetings. Crucially, in Bayern's last ten home Bundesliga matches, they have scored at least two goals in nine of those encounters, while Stuttgart have conceded three or more goals in ten consecutive away league matches.
Best Bet
Bayern München Individual Total Over 2.5 goals represents the primary selection. The hosts consistently generate high shot volumes at home—at least 15 attempts in each of their last ten domestic fixtures—and convert regularly, scoring five or more goals in at least five of their recent league outings. Stuttgart's defensive vulnerabilities on the road, combined with their tendency to leave space in transition, should provide Bayern with the attacking opportunities needed to clear this line.

Odds to Watch
Bayern win is priced at 1.26 (1Win, Melbet), 1.27 (Mostbet), and 1.31 (1xBet). The draw is available at 6.0 (1Win), 6.4 (Mostbet), 6.55 (Melbet), and 6.8 (1xBet). Stuttgart's away record and Bayern's home dominance make the favourites' odds reflective of the underlying match dynamics, though the visitors' attacking approach could create occasional openings for a more competitive scoreline than the odds suggest.
