Der Klassiker at Kickoff: Bayern's Supercup Defense and the 26/27 Kit
Ten Meetings, One Trophy
When Bayern and Dortmund meet with the Supercup on the line, history leans red — but only just. This is the tenth all-German showdown between the two for the season's first silverware, and Bayern lead the head-to-head 5-4. The overall record is heavier still: Bayern have lifted the Supercup a record 11 times, Dortmund six. Last season the Bavarians beat Stuttgart 2-1 to win the first edition renamed in honor of Franz Beckenbauer; Dortmund's last Supercup triumph came in 2019 — a 2-0 win over Bayern, of course. If it ends level after 90 minutes tonight, there is no extra time: straight to penalties at the Yellow Wall.
The recent league form points one way, too. When the sides last met at Signal Iduna Park in February, Bayern edged a five-goal classic 3-2 — Harry Kane scoring twice. Dortmund, under Niko Kovač, finished second and earned the right to host tonight's final as runners-up; they arrive unbeaten in their last two pre-season tests, a 3-2 comeback win over Arsenal and a 2-2 draw with Roma after trailing 0-2.

The Double Winners' Summer
Bayern's 2025-26 was near-total: a record-breaking 122-goal Bundesliga campaign, a second straight league title, and the DFB-Pokal — with the final won against Stuttgart, coincidentally their Matchday 1 opponents this term. Only the Champions League slipped away at the semi-final stage. Vincent Kompany's pre-season has kept the machine humming: five wins from six, including a 15-0 rout of Rottach-Egern, a 2-1 win over Aston Villa, a 3-1 defeat of RB Leipzig and a 4-2 win over Heidenheim in the final warm-up on August 18.
Board member for sport Max Eberl calls the current squad the strongest of the Kompany era: “We think we’re in a better position this season. We have to work hard for it, believe in it, and play every opponent like that.” The benchmark is last year’s opener — a 6-0 statement against Leipzig that set the tone for 122 goals.
FC Bayern Munich 26/27 Home Shirt — Fan Edition

The tighter, lighter matchday silhouette Kompany's men wear on the pitch — the closest a fan can get to the shirt that will chase a third straight Bundesliga title.
The New Faces: Saibari and Brown
Two signings define Bayern's summer. Ismael Saibari, the 25-year-old Morocco international, arrives from PSV Eindhoven on a contract to 2031 after being named Eredivisie Player of the Year — 19 goals and nine assists for a PSV side that won a third straight title. He carried it into the World Cup, scoring in all three group games and converting the winning penalty in Morocco's Round-of-32 shootout against the Netherlands before a thigh injury ended his tournament in the last 16. Eberl's verdict: “With Ismael, we have a player who can play all positions up front.”
Nathaniel Brown, the 23-year-old Germany left-back, joins from Eintracht Frankfurt in a deal reported around €55 million, also to 2031 — pace and aggression for a back line that conceded the fewest goals in last season's title run. Between them, Kompany now has variability everywhere: Saibari can cover left, right and centrally behind Luis Díaz, Brown gives the defense an extra gear.
