Bayern Munich take on the visitors Stuttgart in the round 7 match of German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, October 19th at Allianz Arena (Munich).
Bayern Munich had to respond to last season’s failure when the main favorite and long-standing Bundesliga champion slipped to third place, overtaken by two surprise contenders. Moreover, it feels like Kane never left unlucky Tottenham — he’s still trophyless in Munich! It had been clear for a while that Tuchel would be dismissed, but the decision to replace him with Kompany, who was relegated from the Premier League with Burnley, raised eyebrows. Bayern also went shopping in England, bringing in Olise and Palhinha, while selling De Ligt and Mazraoui in bulk to Manchester United and missing out on the seemingly agreed signing of Ta. The season started well, with the "Record champions" winning convincingly in many matches. However, by September, Kompany’s "honeymoon" ended. In the Bundesliga, there were only draws with Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt, while in the Champions League, Emery's Aston Villa handed Bayern a lesson in Birmingham.

Stuttgart is trying to maintain their position. The "Swabians" were fighting for their Bundesliga survival just recently through relegation playoffs. But last season, with Gerasi scoring freely, they climbed to second place, pushing Bayern aside and only trailing the even bigger surprise of Bayer Leverkusen. This secured Stuttgart’s return to the Champions League, where they have been performing quite well. They gave Real Madrid a tough challenge in the Spanish capital, only faltering at the end. However, a 1-1 draw at home with Sparta Prague was disappointing. In the Bundesliga, Hoeneß's men haven’t impressed so far: they started with a 1-3 loss to Freiburg and have only managed two wins in their first six matches.
Bayern has not lost in their last nine encounters, but in the spring, they were beaten 1-3 in Stuttgart. The "Record champions" cannot afford to drop points again. We predict a home win for Bayern with a handicap of "-1.5 goals" against a Stuttgart side that has had a slow start to the season.
Prediction for the match: Bayern to win with -1.5 handicap.
