Bayern Munich will look to reaffirm their standing as one of the most dominant teams in Europe through the first half of the 2025/26 season as they host Portuguese club Sporting CP on Tuesday in Champions League action.
Vincent Kompany's side sit eight points clear at the top of the Bundesliga table, looking set to walk the league this season. They are also third in the league phase table through six Champions League matches, eying not only a knockout stage spot but even a bye to the Round of 16 as a top-eight finisher.
Still, defeat to Premier League leaders Arsenal in their most recent European match will provide Bayern Munich fuel for getting back on a winning foot.
