With 2026 starting a quick look at FCB for 2025. Bayern became the first team in Bundesliga history to be top from 1 January to 31 December. They also socored 107 goals last years.
In the current season they have 13 wins, two draws and a goal difference of +44. The Reds have the best record after 15 matchdays in the history of the division. Their 55 goals are also a record at this stage of the campaign.
The record champions have never lost in 28 Bundesliga home meetings against the Wolves, allowing the Lower Saxony outfit a meagre two points in Munich (W26, D2).
Bayern have normally come back well from the winter break in recent years, with eight wins from their last 10 opening games of the year – the only exceptions being a 1-1 draw at RB Leipzig in 2023 and a 2-1 defeat to Borussia Mönchengladbach in 2022.
The clash with Wolfsburg will be Kompany’s 50th match as a Bundesliga coach. Under the Belgian’s leadership, Bayern have registered an average of 2.5 points per game (W38, D9, L2) in the league, which is equal with Pep Guardiola as the best average of all Bundesliga bosses.
Bayern have scored at least twice in each of their last 23 Bundesliga games, a current record in the competition.
In their last 23 matches at home, there have always been at least two goals for the home side, equalling Werder Bremen’s record from 1984 to 1985. Harry Kane and Co will therefore be hoping to set a new best on Sunday.
VfL Wolfsburg currently sit 14th in Bundesliga table.
Wolfsburg have had their issues this season and recently dismissed former manager, Paul Simonis, in favour of Daniel Bauer.
Bauer’s current form at the Wolves is certainly better than in previous months. In their last five games in the Bundesliga, Wolfsburg have won two, lost two, and drew one. On 15 points, the Wolves have ever so slightly moved away from the relegation zone.
Bauer has attempted to implement a more attacking philosophy, but defensive vulnerabilities continue plaguing their performances. Their recent 3-4 home defeat against SC Freiburg epitomised their season's struggles, showcasing both attacking promise and defensive fragility.
It is reported the Joshua Kimmich will miss this game to hopefully improve a nagging ankle injury he's had since November.
It looks like Neuer has been deemed fit to play after dealing with a mucle injury.
Alphonso Davies has been sick all week, so his availability is questionable.
Michael Olise is set to make his 50th Bundesliga appearance, having played in every league game since his transfer to Bayern.
Harry Kane's current goal-per-game rate of 1.26 puts him on track for 43 goals this season if he maintains the pace. This would mean he could potentially break the single season scoring record.
