3 octobre 2025
Match Preview
Vincent Kompany, Bayern Munich's head coach, spoke about his team's readiness to face Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday at Deutsche Bank Park, as the Bundesliga reaches its sixth round.
Bayern sit top of the table with a perfect 15 points, while Eintracht Frankfurt lie fourth on 9 points.
The Bavarians have started the season with a remarkable winning run across all competitions.
Key Notes From the Camp
The champions beat Stuttgart 2-1 in the German Super Cup, crushed Leipzig 6-0, and edged Augsburg 3-2, Hamburg 5-0, Hoffenheim 4-1 and Werder Bremen 4-0 in the Bundesliga.
They also defeated Chelsea 3-1 and Pafos 5-1 in European competition, and beat Fehérvár 3-2 in the German Cup.
At the press conference, Kompany stressed the aim to keep the perfect start going and to secure three points tomorrow.
“We will do all we can to deliver the right performance, to win and take the three points,” he said.
He added, “I’m not chasing statistics; the priority is to stay in a position to win trophies from March onwards, maintaining the momentum we already have.”
Regarding Frankfurt’s recent form, he praised their attacking threat and said it’s a match that should be exciting for fans.
On style and balance, he spoke of attacking with intent while remaining defensively solid, acknowledging that Frankfurt is a dangerous side but one that makes for an intriguing test.
Reflecting on team spirit, he said the squad must support each other and stay mentally and physically prepared for what lies ahead.
Max Eberl, Bayern’s sporting director, highlighted the unity inside the squad, saying trust among players and staff has grown over the last 19 months, with the World Cup and four weeks together having a huge impact on the group.
He also noted that Ozun, Frankfurt’s midfielder, has emerged as a dynamic presence between the lines, capable of delivering key passes and even long-range strikes, signaling Bayern must be at their best to neutralize him.
As for injuries, the coach hinted Kim Min-jae could be involved, while Josip Stanisic remains sidelined for now; if all goes well, Bayern will field the same lineup that faced Pafos.
Long-term absentees remain a concern, but the mood in Munich is upbeat as the clock ticks toward Saturday’s kickoff.
He also touched on Munich's Oktoberfest visit on Sunday, saying the team must balance life away from football and that Bayern are a family, so they'll take time to be together but want to win on Saturday.
Max Eberl on the team spirit: the trust between players and staff has grown; the summer signings and the World Cup break have a huge impact, proving football is a team sport both on and off the pitch.
He also praised Frankfurt's Ozun as a rising talent who can both create and score, a reminder Bayern must be their best to secure three more points.
Punchline 1: If Bayern's form were a song, it would top the charts every week—and the chorus is “we always win.”
Punchline 2: And if you think the numbers matter, remember Bayern’s trophy cabinet doesn’t need a calculator—it just needs more space.
