Which competition do Bayern have the best chance of winning?

The truth is that this season Bayern Munich have a real shot at all three titles and could possibly earn the treble. That being said, there are a lot of outside factors that could stop that from coming to fruition. Barring an incredible run like Bayer Leverkusen's, I think that Bayern have a legitimate shot at lifting the Meisterschale and getting Harry Kane his first taste of a league title.

If Bayern start playing like a true contender the way we all know they can in the Champions League, then they could have a strong chance at repeating their treble from 2020, provided they win against Bayer Leverkusen, they should realistically be considered the favorite to hold the DFB-Pokal as well.

As an optimist, I want to say that Bayern Munich can win the treble this season and it will be something that we can write home about at the end. As a realist, I think that Bayern will win the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal, and make a deep run in the Champions League.

My prediction for each competition is as follows:

Bayern will win the league by a decent margin. I believe Bayern will most likely make the quarterfinals, and maybe even the semifinals of the Champions League, but may not win the title this time around. In the DFB Pokal--dependent on their result against Leverkusen--I think they will win a little bit easier. As things stand, Bayern looks in a good position to win at least one title this season and everybody can stop talking about Kane never winning a trophy.
