Bayern Munich looking to maintain momentum against Eintracht Frankfurt.

It has been a good start to the campaign for Bayern Munich. Apart from the abomination at Hoffenheim, Hansi Flick’s men have won every game, including DFL Supercup and UEFA Super Cup. They will now gear up to face Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday in the Bundesliga.

Flick’s men come into this game on the back of a resounding 4-0 win against Atletico Madrid in the first group game of the Champions League. The European Champions were ruthless in the final third against one of the top teams in Europe.

In terms of Bundesliga, Die Roten will face Frankfurt after a comfortable 4-1 win against Arminia Bielefeld last weekend. The defending Bundesliga champions will temporarily go top of the table with a win on Saturday, provided RB Leipzig drops points against Hertha Berlin.

Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt is also enjoying a decent start to the new campaign. They are currently fourth in the table, one point behind Die Roten. Frankfurt comes into the game after dropping points away at FC Cologne. A positive result on Saturday will help them to maintain a good start to the season and remain in the top four.
