Bayern have picked up where they left off last season, in which they cruised to the Bundesliga title by 13 points. Vincent Kompany's side have looked even better this term, with former Liverpool winger Luis Diaz's arrival providing even more ammunition for deadly center-forward Harry Kane, who has 18 goals in just 10 Bayern games in all competitions this term. No less assured defensively thanks to Jonathan Tah and Dayot Upamecano – Die Roten have conceded just three times in six league outings thus far – FC Hollywood already look likely to make it 13 Bundesligas from the last 14 seasons.
Nevertheless, Dortmund seem likely to push them close. Since Niko Kovac's return to the Westfalenstadion dugout in February, Die Schwarzgelben have impressed and remain Germany's only other unbeaten top-flight side this term with four wins and two draws. Serhou Guirassy has continued his stellar recent Bundesliga form, the Guinean forward having bagged six goals already this term, while evergreen pair Marcel Sabitzer and Julian Brandt are enjoying a quietly impressive campaigns.
