Bundesliga Preview

There were doubts surrounding Bayern Munich ahead of the opening weekend, as the reigning champions were easily beaten in the Super Cup by RB Leipzig. However, any doubts questioning whether Bayern were the force of old this term were answered on matchday one, as they easily strolled to maximum points on the road against Werder Bremen. 

Harry Kane was handed a first start following his move from Tottenham Hotspur, and the England captain was excellent throughout. He set up the opening for Leroy Sane, before opening his account for the German giants with 15 minutes remaining. The scoring was completed in the final five minutes following another effort from Sane and a goal for Mathys Tel. Bayern will be looking to put on a show for their home fans this weekend.

Augsburg were involved in one of the most dramatic opening day matches in Bundesliga history last weekend, as they shared eight goals with Borussia Monchengladbach. Augsburg drew level at 3-3 on the stroke of half time through Sven Michel, before Ruben Vargan put them into the lead with just 14 minutes remaining. 

However, they wasn’t able to hang on to secure a dramatic win, as Gladbach were awarded a dramatic penalty in the seventh minute of injury time. The spot kick was subsequently converted by Tomas Cvancara. Defensively, Augsburg made no shortage of mistakes in that draw, but there were clearly signs of attacking quality that was missing throughout the 2022-23 season.
